So refreshing to see a politician make universal childcare (hopefully quality) a priority! This will help so many family members (re)enter the workforce or get training/ education to gain valuable skills. #ZohranMamdani
Soon, we'll oversee a budget of more than $100 billion — and every dollar will reflect our commitment to working New Yorkers and delivering universal childcare. Good thing some little New Yorkers gave me a counting lesson today!

The one positive thing that #dtrump has done in either of his terms: ordered that pennies will no longer be minted. This should have happened 15 years ago. Next step should be to take pennies out of circulation. Cash them in while you can!
US Mint presses final pennies as production ends after more than 230 years
The U.S. has ended production of the penny. The last 1-cent coins were made Wednesday at the mint in Philadelphia.

It really angers me that for many years, I've paid more Federal taxes than #dtrump. My highest salary was < $60K.
"dt paid no net federal income taxes in 11 of 18 years of the past two decades. In 2016, dt paid only $750 in fed. income tax, and in 2017, he paid another $750 in fed. income tax."
