(1/6) I’m incredibly proud to be running in the community where I’ve lived my entire life, the newly drawn 34th State Senate District ― to keep our Democratic majority and fight for The Bronx & Westchester. – at Bronx, NY

Respectfully, what you are suggesting would be terrible public policy, wouldn’t bring anyone justice, and would do absolutely nothing to get guns off our streets.

Proud to stand w. members of the City Council asking the NYS Governor and Legislature to fix our gun laws. We need justice but also need safety - and right now, our most vulnerable NYers don’t have access to safety. Won’t change until we take action.

I think a lot about how this is the essential difference between millennial and Gen z ambition. Millennials were the last generation to believe in a system and work within it to change it.

Replying to @amandamull
also really glosses over the whole idea that replacing men with women in identical power structures tends to reproduce many of the same harms! are we concerned about the people who experience those harms or nah

There are 140 million Millennials & Gen Z in America. Today is the first time in our lives when abortion has been illegal in any US state. AND. WE. WILL. VOTE.

Today was epic - we distributed over 40,000 masks and 2,000 bottles of sanitizer across the #Bronx! With the rising cases of the #DeltaVariant, we need to connect our community to #PPE in order to keep our neighbors safe and healthy. – at Bronx, NY

Grateful @SenSchumer came out to #CastleHill to meet with me today and talk about my district, priorities, & plans. It was great to hear the similarities we share that brought us both into politics, & I’m excited for our plans to work together! #CD18 #ForThePeople #TheBronx

With less than two weeks before schools starts we need to ensure we do not have another mass school closure that delays our students education. We need a remote option for students & parents and mask mandates in schools to protect everyone. #schoolreopening #backtoschool – at Bronx, NY

New York Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul, 62, will soon become the state's first female governor, replacing Gov. Andrew Cuomo. A Buffalo native, she was first elected lieutenant governor in 2014 as Cuomo's running mate and won reelection alongside him in 2018. cnn.it/3fMsvPq

I agree with Governor Cuomo's decision to step down. It is the right thing to do and in the best interest of New Yorkers. As someone who has served at all levels of government and is next in the line of succession, I am prepared to lead as New York State’s 57th Governor.

Millennials have less wealth than any generation at this age. And Mark Zuckerberg single-handedly has 2.3% of all Millennial wealth. We were told to "work hard and get an education" and this is how it turned out.

Millennials own less than 5% of all US wealth. In 1989, when baby boomers were the same age, they controlled 21% of the nation's wealth. Young people are not lazy. The economy is rigged against them.

This article is a must read for the left — municipal elections are less about ideology, & more about tangible results. Experience & well-laid plans matter, & conveying those things wins elections. These principles will apply in the next cycle too! slate.com/business/2021/07/k…

We need to be cautious — The new variant of #COVID19 is stronger than previous variants. Social distancing, hand washing, and mask wearing are still important - as is ensuring vaccination. Rising cases indicate we can be heading backwards. We can’t take the last year in vain. – at Bronx, NY

Fast food workers across the country are on strike today to demand McDonald's, the bottom-of-the-barrel industry leader, pay every one of their workers $15 NOW. Workers are demanding fair pay and standards. Add your voice: bit.ly/MCD15now #FightFor15
