NEW: After the election, many have asked “where do we go from here?” I have some thoughts and they don't include “be more moderate”

Read my op-ed in @empirereportny.bsky.social where I call for us in the NY legislature to act with a bold and progressive vision.

As we honor Dr. King’s legacy, I stood once again with the 15,000 @nynurses.bsky.social on strike for safe working conditions, fair pay, benefits, and safe staffing ratios.

Nurses are essential workers. Justice means caring for workers and patients. Patients over profits. Always. ✊🏽

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

I joined officials urging the @NYSDPS to reject Con Ed’s proposed rate hikes. Families & small businesses can’t absorb years of increases above inflation while shareholders get excessive profits.

Energy is essential. People first. Not corporate profits. 💡

We’re proud to endorse @votejgr.bsky.social for State Senate District 13. Jessica is a proven working families champion. In Albany, she has delivered on universal school meals, fighting for immigrant New Yorkers, and advancing reproductive justice in Albany. We’re all in on Jessica.

Honored to earn the endorsement of the @nywfp.bsky.social Working Families Party! Together, we’re standing up for immigrants, tenants, workers, and families—and proving progressive values and effective governing go hand in hand. 🤝

Let’s build a New York that works for all…together.

Vickie Paladino’s call to expel, sanction & denaturalize Muslims is vile, unconstitutional, and dangerous. This is blatant Islamophobia. Muslim New Yorkers belong here—full stop. Someone who promotes hate like this has no place on the City Council and must be censured immediately

School shootings. ICE. Climate disasters. The United States is not safe for young people, and there’s one reason why: billionaires have bought out our government.

We are grieving across the world after a deadly antisemitic attack at a Hanukkah gathering in Australia. Here at home, reports of menorah vandalism in Jackson Heights are a reminder that antisemitism—big or small—must be confronted everywhere.

Hate has no place here.

Proud to share that @GovKathyHochul signed my Free Asthma Inhaler Bill! Starting 2027, New Yorkers will pay $0 for rescue + maintenance inhalers. This is a huge win for health & environmental justice, especially for communities like mine.

Everyone deserves to breathe freely 💙

Honored to earn the endorsement of @aoc.bsky.social & @NydiaVelazquez — two trailblazing Latinas fighting for a more just and equitable Queens. I’m running for State Senate to deliver transformative change.

As @AOC said: Queens deserves someone who will always show up & fight. I’m ready.💪🏽

Forest Hills Stadium was 🔥 tonight — 13,000 strong 4 the “NYC Is Not for Sale” rally w @AOC, @BernieSanders & our next Mayor, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

“While Trump’s billionaires try to buy this election, we have a movement of the masses.”

Let’s win a city for the people — not the powerful. 🗳️

“I’m proud to endorse friend & colleague JGR for NYS Senate.
Time & again, she has stood up for our community—from health care for our immigrant neighbors, to combating hate against our LGBTQ+ community, to supporting our public spaces. JGR is the partner I need in Albany” - Council Member Krishnan

It was an honor to address the members of the @nycfairhousing & discuss our shared agenda to ensure affordability & protect tenants’ rights.

I stand w an org fighting for housing for people, not profit. Together, we can keep every New Yorker in NY—& make housing a human right✊🏽

Honored to earn the endorsement of @MaketheRoadAct as I run for State Senate!

Together we’ve fought for Coverage for All, defended our neighbors from ICE, & stood with LGBTQIA+ immigrants. Excited to keep building the future our communities deserve. 🧵

Andrew Cuomo is Donald Trump and the ultra rich’s choice for mayor. Zohran Mamdani is the peoples’ choice.

Proud to back @tiffany_caban’s Delivery Protection Act 🚚

Amazon has the most Unfair Labor Practice allegations in NYC—yet still keeps drivers at arm’s length while controlling their jobs. Enough is enough. Protect workers, safe streets & ensure corporate accountability!

Last Thursday, at 26 Federal Plaza, I was arrested w colleagues for demanding ICE be held accountable for inhumane conditions. I held Dino—our beloved neighbor & restaurant worker, deported & torn from his wife & 3 kids—in my heart.

NY must pass #NY4All & NYC must pass the Trust Act

Thank you to @JimmyVanBramer, Dan Hendrick & @amitsinghbagga for hosting a beautiful backyard fundraiser. As we resist Trump’s attacks, we need leaders who build coalitions across city, state & federal gov’t to deliver for Queens.

Jackson Heights showed up for @ZohranKMamdani! We launched a canvas at Travers Park w Congresswoman @PramilaJayapal, a true fighter 4 justice.

In 2014, she & I got arrested in a DC civil disobedience for immigrant women’s rights—today we fight again…this time for Zohran for NYC
