I am excited to announce I have been endorsed as the #1 choice by NY State Young Democrats! Our young people are not just the future of our city, they’re the current leaders standing up against the Trump Administration, ICE, cuts to essential services, & so much more. Thank you for your support!

Honored to be the #1 choice by NY10 Neighbors, a multiracial, multifaith coalition. As a Jewish woman, I’m proud to support a permanent ceasefire & be the only candidate for this seat to say so, while calling for the hostages’ return. I stand for human rights & an end to violence across the world.

I am outraged by ICE’s continued presence in NYC — especially after the arrest of Comptroller @bradlander.bsky.social for standing up for due process.

ICE has no place in our city!

We have to stand up for New Yorkers. NYC is and always will be a city of immigrants.
NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was taken into custody by federal agents while attempting to escort a defendant from immigration court on Tuesday afternoon.

This was the third time Lander had been accompanying people to and from their immigration hearings.

We had such a great time today at The Loisaida Festival! 🇵🇷

It was a delight to run into leaders, allies, and supporters while our team was out enjoying the festivities, listening to the community about what matters most to them, and reminding neighbors about the election.

Honored to be recognized as a Gun Sense Candidate by @momsdemand.bsky.social
As a public health professional, I know gun violence is a preventable crisis. I’ve fought to fund solutions like Cure Violence programs, & I’ll keep pushing for strong evidence-based policies to keep our neighborhoods safe.
