Congrats to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social on an inspiring victory. His relentless and pragmatic positivity is what we need in our city to confront our current challenges and the many more that Trump has in store for us. I look forward to working together for a city that works for all NYers.

Proud to join @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social to talk to voters on the UES today. He is the only candidate offering real solutions to the problems that are front of mind for NYers, and the only one committed to serving the interests of NYers, not his own and especially not Donald Trump's.

Plug-in solar is a game changer, cutting energy bills and building resilience and real energy independence. One small change in statute can unlock solar access for millions of New Yorkers. The SUNNY Act, which I carry w/@emilyassembly.bsky.social, will deliver it. www.thecooldown.com/green-busine...

Balcony solar is a powerful tool to deliver enhanced energy independence and affordability to millions of New Yorkers who are currently shut out of the solar economy. Sunshine is free, and my bill with @emilyassembly.bsky.social will let NYers finally plug in.
