Proud to secure state funding for South Asian Council for Social Services. This investment helps SACSS continue their work in providing healthcare access, food security, senior services, and workforce development initiatives. #ThePeoplesWork More here: thesouthasiantimes.info/local-govt./...

Thank you, bill sponsors! @lizkrueger.bsky.social @nilyrozic.bsky.social @bradhoylmansigal.bsky.social @lindabrosenthal.bsky.social Let's get these signed, @governor.ny.gov? 👀

Thrilled to join the Flushing Chinese Business Association to kick off another Lunar New Year Parade planning season. Thank you to the board, sponsors and CBOs who participate and volunteer their time to make it a huge success. Save the Date: Saturday, February 21st at 11AM. #YearOfTheHorse

I’m proud to join so many leaders in today’s announcement of a future Queens Holocaust Memorial Garden in the heart of our borough. It will serve as a testament to our history and a tool to teach the next generation of #QueensKids to #NeverForget.

One of our fav holiday recipes for protecting privacy, health & freedom in NY. 🥧💗 We need these four critical bills signed: tell @governor.ny.gov to sign NOW so New Yorkers can get care without fear, delay, or discrimination. Sign our petition to get cookin’: tinyurl.com/3xupp72d

AAF joined community groups this morning in support of @nilyrozic.bsky.social and @liunewyork.bsky.social's hospital language access bill and to urge @governor.ny.gov to sign it into law—because all New Yorkers deserve quality medical care no matter what language we speak!

Too many New Yorkers face language barriers that can delay or prevent life-saving care. Legislation I sponsor with Sen. John Liu ensures NY hospitals provide interpretation & translation services so every patient can make informed decisions. Let’s make equitable healthcare a reality for all.

This Veterans Day, we recognize the incredible service and sacrifices made by our veterans. I’ll keep fighting in Albany to make sure veterans have the support and resources they’ve earned and deserve.

Libraries are more than buildings — they’re gateways to opportunity, learning, and connection. That's why I am thrilled to celebrate Hillcrest's reopening. Proud to keep fighting for the resources Queens families deserve. 📚 #LibrariesAreEssential

May the lights of Diwali diyas fill your home with happiness, hope, and everything that brings you joy. Wishing you and your family a very Happy Diwali! हैप्पी दिवाली टू ऑल!

We joined the NY Bipartisan Pro-Choice Legislative Caucus today, urging @governor.ny.gov to enact a bold package of bills protecting reproductive rights + expanding access to reproductive, sexual, & gender-affirming care. Big thanks to co-chairs @lizkrueger.bsky.social and Assemblywoman Reyes! 🧵

I recently announced $25,000 in new funding for Tomchei Shabbos of Queens to support their kosher meal delivery program that provides meals to families and older adults in need. With this state grant, meals will be delivered directly, ensuring access to nutritious, kosher food throughout the year.

I was honored to join SCO Family of Services for its first “Community, Commitment, Change” forum in Briarwood. For 130 years, SCO has been strengthening New York families, and it was inspiring to see their mission and plans in action. Grateful to be part of this milestone. #ThePeoplesWork

Today we remember the lives lost on September 11th, 2001, and all those that we have lost from 9/11-related illnesses. We honor the families who still bear the weight of that day, and the courage of heroes and first responders who continue to serve. Tonight, join us if you can. 🇺🇸

It was so fun celebrating the last kicks of summer! ☀️🍦💞✨ www.qchron.com/editions/nor...

Exciting news! Proud to join my colleagues in announcing $8.5M in state investment for the Queens Museum. This will bring a new children’s arts museum, accessible arts spaces, & so much more to our community. #ArtsForAll

Happy Independence Day, America! 🇺🇸 Grateful for our freedoms and eager to keep fighting for this country and the rights we all deserve.

Shabbat Shalom, everyone. May this be the last Shabbat we spend without the hostages coming home. 🎗

It's here! After announcing state investment for the P.S. 163 Flushing Heights elementary school in October, the new, imaginative playground is up and running. I was so pleased to check out the welcomed upgrade with Principal Francine Marsaggi and her team.

These are the devastating consequences of leaving antisemitism unchecked and allowing it to go mainstream. Sending my deepest condolences to the @israelmfa.bsky.social and the families of the victims of tonight’s tragedy. May their memories be a blessing.

I was so grateful to @ncjw.bsky.social for coming to the State Capitol to advocate for reproductive health. With the uncertainty coming out of DC, it is critical that we maintain access to quality care. NY must provide women’s health services regardless of cuts to Medicaid or Title X.

This — on top of other DOE statements that have been hurtful and harmful to the Jewish community — are appalling. It creates an environment that is unwelcoming to Jewish educators and students. It’s incumbent on the NYC schools to take corrective action. nypost.com/2025/04/30/u...

Happy May Day! Today we honor the contributions of workers and the ongoing fight for fair wages, safe conditions, and dignity on the job.

Denim Day takes place every April, which is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. This day of action & awareness is an event when everyone encouraged to wear denim to combat victim blaming. On this #DenimDay, I stand in solidarity with survivors and reaffirm my commitment to ending sexual violence.

The firing of Biden officials from the Holocaust Museum is unprecedented & reprehensible. Museum Board membership a solemn obligation to education, tolerance & preserving the memory of six million lost. As with everything else, Trump is using it for purposes of political retribution. Unconscionable.

Excessive social media use is another deadly epidemic we need to get smart about combating. Here’s @hillaryclinton.bsky.social & Common Sense Media on this: To protect kids online, New York has more work to do via @timesunion.com www.timesunion.com/opinion/arti...

80 years after the Holocaust, with antisemitism surging, Never Again is not an empty slogan. Never Again is a call to action. Remembrance rings hollow without action against today’s hatred. We will NEVER forget. We will NEVER be silent again. 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️

This time of year holds deep meaning for many in our community. It is a season that brings families together, inspires acts of kindness, and renews our faith—not only in our beliefs, but in each other. Wishing all those who are celebrating a blessed and joyful Easter weekend.

This holiday season, I’m proud to partner with CommonpointNY & Food1st Foundation to help distribute over 2,100 meals. These acts of kindness reflects the very best of our community — where we look out for one another and make sure no family is left behind. qns.com/2025/04/comm...

Sending you and yours warm wishes as we celebrate the blessings of freedom, faith and family. This Passover, let's remember that there are 59 hostages being held captive - may they know freedom now, swiftly, and be returned to their families soon.🎗 ‎חג פסח כשר שמח

It was great to meet with AJC New York this week as they advocated for my legislation to require Title VI coordinators on college campuses across New York. With ongoing concerns about campus safety, it’s so important that every student feels safe and supported.

"We may lose one of the most vital services that actually kept us safe in 2024 and kept our elections moving," Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes said about cuts to a federal cybersecurity agency that helps safeguard elections.

New York is ranked 20th in the country for gender pay gaps faced by Asian women working full time. We must fight for ALL women to earn #EqualPay. #EqualPayNY #AANHPIEqualPay

I would be making a big deal out of this if I were an elected Democrat

As Passover approaches, I felt truly grateful to partner with Tomchei Shabbos of Queens and Met Council to bring holiday joy to over 400 families. A huge thank you to all who organized this package drive and who constantly choose to leave this world better than they found it.

In the company of dedicated colleagues and leaders working to uplift our communities, I’m grateful to be listed as part of City & State’s 2025 Queens Power 100. #Sweet16 More here: www.cityandstateny.com/power-lists/...

With Women’s History Month well underway, NY celebrates the trailblazers and everyday heroes making a difference in our communities. Let’s honor the incredible women who’ve paved the way and keep working to build a better future.

Today our community bid a final farewell to Gene Kelty — a longtime New York City firefighter and Queens Community Board 7 chair. Gene was a captain at Engine 10 on Liberty Street on September 11th. Our city is forever indebted to his service. RIP Gene.

Happy Holi! Wishing everyone a joyful festival of Holi—may it be bright and cheerful! होली की शुभकामनाएं

Today, the story of Esther and the defeat of Haman is as relevant as ever. I hope you and yours have a meaningful celebration this year. Happy Purim Everyone! 🥳👑✨🎭

The food industry as a whole is feeling pressure to remove artificial dyes from products, driven by consumer demand and possible regulations

It’s Music in Our Schools Month! This week, I welcomed reps from NYSSMA & MEANYC including Townsend Harris HS’s own music teacher! A big thank you for the incredible work they do to inspire and educate NY students. Investing in music education is critical, & I’m proud to support their efforts.

All students should feel safe on campus. That’s why I’ve written the ACCESS Act — to make it easier to take action when colleges allow discriminatory harassment to flourish. I am grateful to @nilyrozic.bsky.social, @senatorcomrie.bsky.social, and Sen. Stavisky for their partnership.

I am so proud to partner with the Charles B. Wang Community Health Center in Flushing to bring tailored, culturally competent educational resources and programming for new parents and their newborns. More here >> www.qgazette.com/articles/gra...
