Zohran didn't win by relying on standard turnout patterns. We had to fundamentally transform the Democratic electorate.

I was part of a group of NYC-DSA members that applied lessons from our previous campaigns to design the “universe” of voters to talk to. Here's how we won 🧵

Leqaa Kordia is the last Columbia protester still being held prisoner by ICE—all because she dared to speak out against genocide and in support of Palestine.

We must demand her freedom and safety, and condemn this affront to freedom of speech.

In 2015, I interned with @maketheroadny.bsky.social as part of their Worker Rights Program. Today, I was proud to stand with them as an Assemblymember to demand the passage of New York for All to end NY's collaboration with ICE.

In this moment of crisis, we must be BOLD. ¡Sí se puede!

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

On Tuesday night, we won our election by 57 points. On Wednesday morning, I traveled to the New York State Capitol to be sworn into office and seated as the Assemblymember for the 36th District.

I'll be back in Albany tomorrow to continue fighting for the people of Astoria and Long Island City.

"What we do is we organize. DSA members and DSA electeds know that the power is on the streets with constituents who are well-organized, knocking doors if necessary to get the Governor to tax the rich.”

Thank you, Bobby Cuza and @spectrumnewsny1.bsky.social's Inside City Hall, for having me on!

One day after being sworn in and casting my first votes in Albany, and two days after winning our election, I came back to Astoria and went straight to a town hall with @aoc.bsky.social.

It’s a privilege to get to serve our community at this pivotal moment. And we are not slowing down!

7 months ago, I called my comrade @dianaforqueens.com and asked her to run for office.

11 weeks ago, we launched our campaign to maintain the People's Republic of Astoria.

Yesterday, we won by 57 points.

Today, Diana became Assemblymember Diana Moreno.

What will we do tomorrow?

ICE is murdering people in the streets and kidnapping our children, including right here in Astoria. There is no time to waste.

With my election yesterday, we have a mandate to pass New York for All and continue organizing to abolish ICE—and we will do it together.

Right after I took office today, I co-sponsored my first bill, a centerpiece of our campaign & close to my heart: the New York for All Act.

Assemblymember Karines Reyes has long championed this critical legislation. We must prohibit state & local cooperation with Trump's deportation machine.

Thank you, Queens!

Today, Astoria and Long Island City voted to send a socialist immigrant mom to the New York State Assembly. Our movement is headed to Albany. I’m ready to make you proud.

This video of our campaign's march to the polls this morning perfectly encapsulates the beauty of our movement and the DSA Difference 🥲

Vote @dianaforqueens.com by 9pm tonight!
We launched this campaign 78 days ago. And in those 78 days, we have built something truly beautiful together.

It was an honor to be accompanied by my family, friends, and supporters as I pushed my 1-year-old son down Steinway to cast my ballot for our movement. You can do the same until 9pm today!

This morning, I was joined by family, friends, supporters, and volunteers as we walked down Steinway to cast our ballots for Assembly.

Now, I'm asking you to join me by voting before 9pm—to fight Trump's authoritarianism and continue our movement for a Queens we can afford.
