My office released a guide to help New Yorkers know their rights and protect their money.

A tale of two companies: #target and #costco. One scrapped #DEI programs at the first sign of #Trump and the other doubled down on their DEI initiatives. Which one is doing better??? 👀

Stating the obvious: tariffs are a regressive tax on the poorest Americans.

The book "Cause Unknown" was published by RFK, Jr.'s anti-vaccine group in 2022.

It argues that COVID-19 vaccines caused sudden deaths.

On the cover the tragic death of 12-year-old Braden Fahey is shown.

There's just one problem.

Braden Fahey was never vaccinated for COVID-19.
