You’ve got to govern for all the people of your state.
Whether it’s Chicago or Cairo, we’ve invested in education, infrastructure, and jobs in every part of the state.
We need more people who are willing to reach across the aisle and do the right thing when they’re in office.

ICE arrests have skyrocketed in recent weeks, breaking up families and spreading fear in our neighborhoods.
This is what happens when a Mayor rolls out of the red carpet for authoritarianism.

NYC's largest union—the mighty @dc37nyc.bsky.social—stood with us in the primary when few thought victory was possible. Now they're all in for the general election.
Together, we'll deliver a city where the people who keep it running can afford it too.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.
