This is far worse than anyone expected.
Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.
All as mass internment camps are being built.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Being brown in the US, I'm just grateful I got to be a part of, and witness Zohran peaking at such an important point on the NYC,US & global scale. I was so close to being so disillusioned about politics and our power in it, now I understand what community-building can actually look like. #mamdani

New York is a-changin'.
Nothing energized me more than the meaningful conversations (& civil debates) I have had with my community in East Harlem #nyc while canvassing. I’ll remember each of these people I met, the struggles or doubts they shared. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social campaign has truly brought us together on hope..

While I was energized by the likely-voters today at Harlem early pollsite (3-to-1 enthused about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social vision), it was also such a sad juxtaposition to see long lines for food assistance (SNAP benefits expire today). We need a city that’s affordable for all. #nyc #election2025

Thanks to everyone who came to our office to donate blood and join the bone marrow registry this Halloween!
We gave away over 100 hot dogs, 15 pounds of candy, signed up 50 people for the bone marrow registry, and collected 28 units of blood —which is more blood than in three people’s bodies!
