If the ADL wants to keep Jews isolated from our allies and neighbors, their time as Jewish leaders is over.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social knows that safety for any of us depends on safety for all of us.

He will fight antisemitism, anti-Muslim bigotry, and all forms of bigotry.

Our futures are intertwined.

" @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is bringing us back to those values that were expressed in the machsor, in the prayer for our country."

We vote for our Jewish values.

We are Jews for Zohran.

Donald Trump just told us we were stupid for supporting @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social.

"Trump is showing once again that he doesn’t care about Jewish people. He only uses us when it’s convenient for him, with no regard to the damage he does to the Jewish community or the danger he puts us in." (1/3)

Today's the day! We vote with our Jewish values.

New York is about to elect a candidate who put affordability and solidarity across difference at the center of his campaign.

Let's do it.
Record breaking early voting continues all over the New York City. Video from Kew Gardens, Queens.

For @forward.com, I wrote about something that has been bothering me: Why does all the talk about Jewish safety in the New York mayoral election not count sexual harassment as a threat to Jewish safety and dignity?

In the Mamdani-Cuomo race, why should I choose safety as a Jew over safety as a woman?
Rabbis are denouncing Zohran Mamdani in the race for New York City mayor — without acknowledging the threat to women posed by Andrew Cuomo.

Today, we remember the 11 beloved Jewish community members who were murdered at a synagogue in Pittsburgh seven years ago.

May their memories be a blessing and may their families be comforted.

In this race, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is the only candidate who has put out a comprehensive plan, through engaging with the Jewish community, on how to fight antisemitism.
When I say Zohran will be great for the Jewish community, it isn't hyperbole. It is based on his direct commitment to do so!
MAMDANI:
Antisemitism is a real problem. Here's my plan to 800% increase for funding hate crime prevention and protect Jewish New Yorkers.

CUOMO:
Zohran is antisemitic and so are the Jews and allies who agree with him.

SLIWA:
"Jews must protect themselves.”

Cuomo on MAGA radio:

“God forbid, another 9/11—can you imagine Mamdani in the seat?”

“He’d be cheering,” the host responds.

“That’s another problem.“ adds Cuomo after laughing.

We have no words.

What else can Cuomo add to his list of disqualifications for any NYC office?

The rabbi and cantor letter attacking @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social threatens our best ability to defeat fascism — our multiracial, multifaith majority.

Our Jewish communities must resist trading our freedom and the freedom of others for false promises of safety.
