Tonight is the first full annual @BronxDems County Committee meeting that isn't an organizational or to vote on the rules! This is because of our efforts in 2018 that made sure we meet every year! Now let's see if we can get some business done at this meeting + not just a show!

More than a doz Sanders del.s and members of the NY Dem Cmte filed a lawsuit in federal court Friday against Dem Elex Comm.s D Kellner and A Spano, both appointed by @NYGovCuomo , for their role in removing candidates from the ballot, effectively cancelling the pres primary in NY

This is why we 💜 @AOC! She embodies the spirit of being a #BronxProgressive. We are in this to raise our conciousness and help our communities reclaim what's theirs. Full stop.
This video is powerful not just bc of Samelys, but bc it actively educates people on structural inequity + history of the South Bronx. It’s a campaign discussing redlining, NYC shelter system, the Young Lords, housing+healthcare guarantees. @SamelysLopez is the real deal. 💪🏽💜

More thoughts coming as I continue to write. The short of it: it's a remarkable night for progressives, leftists, and democratic socialists in New York. @AOC was no fluke. Politics in NYC is in a realignment. The old guard continues to fall.

#NYCHA we see you. We stand with you. Let’s feast!
“You can’t take food away from a child and then not understand why they can’t or don’t eat, and I think that that’s exactly what’s happening with our public housing program.” -@AOC

Wondering if @NYGovCuomo is afraid of the #TenantMovement 🤔 #TenantTuesday
Tenants from all over New York State are outside @NYGovCuomo's CLOSED OFFICE doors to demand #UniveralRentControl. He appears to not be here or if he is, he is hiding from his own constituents, the people he is supposed to be serving. Real estate money is keeping him quiet.

They were illegal in NYC for a long time and never really became a thing after the ban was lifted 😂 Other home things many NYers don’t have in their apartments: washer/dryer, dishwasher, central air. (Saving up for a portable dishwasher was one of the best things we did)

Today we passed legislation to expand healthcare coverage of eating disorders. I am proud of this moment not only as the bill's sponsor, but as a person who has lived with an eating disorder for 15 years and has faced the challenges of recovery.

PSA for folks who haven’t had consistent healthcare/doctors: Get your Tetanus vaccine booster! You’re supposed to get them every 10 yrs as an adult - I just got mine bc I didn’t have insurance for a bit. My shot also included a whooping cough booster bc of recent outbreaks.
