I’m so proud to live in a city that shows up for our immigrant neighbors and stands up to the cruelty of ICE. If we keep speaking out, organizing, and fighting back, we will win. Thank you to 50501, Westville Indivisible, and others for yesterday’s powerful rally.

Yesterday, I was honored to speak on the picket line for Teamsters Local 671, whose members have been on strike for months for better wages and working conditions. Support the workers by boycotting i-Health’s products and tell the company at actionnetwork.org/letters/stand-with-i-health-teamsters!

What a day!!

On Tuesday, hundreds of people marched on the New Haven Green to stand up for public education against the Trump administration’s attempts to gut funding for our schools. It’s time to get involved and get organized to make sure our kids have the education and the future they deserve.

Christmas came early on Tuesday! My colleague Alder Gary Hogan gifted me some pocket squares after I told him I was impressed by his a couple weeks ago. Now I’ve got a perfect four pointed fold in all colors 🥳 Thank you Alder Hogan!!
