Rep. Crockett’s Statement on the Supreme Court’s Ruling on Texas’s 2026 Map

You don’t need to be a Democrat to know this is wrong — you just need a conscience. If you can hear what these people survived in ICE custody and feel no outrage, then we are not standing on the same side of right and wrong.

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

The U.S. has conducted 19 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing at least 76 people. Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it. He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner. This is a danger to us all.

Trump’s USDA is threatening to withhold food stamp funding for 20 Democrat-controlled states if they don’t share recipients’ sensitive personal data. Yes: Trump is weaponizing hunger against millions of Americans, including children, to score cheap political points. The cruelty is endless.

Can I let you in on a little secret? Billionaire philanthropy isn’t charity. It’s PR to distract you from low wages, labor exploitation, and a tax system that’s rigged for the rich.

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants. Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

The climate crisis won’t wait and neither will we. With this team, we’ll meet it head-on.

No child should go hungry simply because their parents are immigrants. As mayor, I’ll join @newyorkstateag.bsky.social in using every lever of government for the families who fear if they can afford tomorrow’s meals.

New Yorkers kept telling me the same thing: they’re thinking of leaving because they can’t afford to raise their kids here. Universal childcare isn’t just a promise — it’s how we make this a city for everyone.

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol made $95 million last year. His workers are striking for the bare minimum. Glad to be on the right side of the picket line with them.

This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isn’t over until the epidemic is over for everyone.

ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety. My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Pete Hegseth says he’s going to court-martial me for saying the same exact thing he said 9 years ago. What changed for Pete? Well to start, he spends all day thinking about how he can suck up to Trump. When Trump says jump, he says how high.

When buying a house is unattainable and jobs are disappearing, it's no surprise young people think they can’t succeed, especially young men. It's not their fault. It’s Washington’s fault for allowing the middle class to be hollowed out just to make rich people richer.

Reposting this everyday until Pete Hagueseth faces justice for his crimes against humanity.

Hey America, if you were a Christian nation, you’d be feeding the poor, not yelling at them for using food stamps.

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

In the richest city in the richest country on the planet, the thing we can’t afford is to forget those who are left hungry.

No one will stop me from defending our freedoms.

The irony is rich.

Young people in the U.S. have been priced out of their dreams. Stop acting like it’s their fault.

I would call Pete Hegseth a war criminal, but we aren’t at war. He’s just a mass murderer.

It says a lot about our country that the FBI had no interest in interviewing Brett Kavanaugh but wants to talk to Mark Kelly.

Remember when he mocked everyone else for being “low energy”? Look at him now. Nodding off, slurring, and cutting his days short because he cannot keep up. The myth of unstoppable Trump is long gone.

I’m a veteran of the United States Navy, and I fully and completely support Senator Mark Kelly.

About 40% of SNAP recipients are children. Around half of ALL children in the country are covered by Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program. And the so-called “party of family values” gutted both programs by billions of dollars. Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

New York City helped my mother become the artist she is today. The next generation deserves a City Hall that lifts up tomorrow's artists as well.

No contract, no coffee. We don’t believe in sitting on the sidelines. Join our Transition co-chair @linamkhan.bsky.social , First Deputy Mayor Dean Fuleihan & @sbworkersunited.org at the picket lines.

My daughter and I visited the house we lived in when she was a baby, and she was shocked a 29-year-old Navy guy could afford a nice house in a safe neighborhood. That wasn’t crazy in 1996 — but today, a nice house is out of reach for so many young people. That has to change.

The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us. But I won't back down — and neither should you.

Thank you to the first responders who subdued the suspect that shot two National Guard members earlier today. It’s an awful thing for a family to learn a loved one was shot while receiving mixed reports of their well being.

Miss Piggy FTW

I’m horrified by the news coming out of our nation’s capital today. Our guardsmen selflessly dedicate themselves to service. This violence cannot be normalized in our country. Minnesota is sending our love to the families of the service members who were killed.

Thou shalt not wear a cross around your neck if you always do the opposite of what Jesus would do.
