I am deeply alarmed by this morning’s explosion & partial collapse at the Mitchel Houses in the Bronx. While I’m relieved no injuries have been reported, the residents endured real fear. This incident shines light on our need for accountability, safety, and resilience in our public housing.
NEW: A 20-story chimney running along the side of a NYCHA building in The Bronx collapsed Wednesday morning, and the FDNY is investigating whether an explosion in the boiler room on the first day of heat season triggered the collapse.

To kick off #ClimateWeekNYC, I visited Sky Farm LIC, a rooftop farm that grows thousands of pounds of food and gives it all away.
Over 1,000 students have already visited this year, learning how climate action + food justice go hand in hand. Change starts right here at home.

For years, I stood with survivors of solitary confinement to pass the HALT Solitary Law in 2021, fighting for their dignity and safety. Yet NYSDOCCS’s failure to implement it has cost lives. Enough is enough. They must follow the law. hellgatenyc.com/report-suici...
