Today we recognize and honor the Indigenous peoples who have inhabited this land for millennia. Manhattan was once home to over 20k Lenape people. Today, New York City has the largest number of American Indians and Alaska Natives of any location in the US.

Today I share the joy and relief of the families welcoming home the last remaining hostages who have finally been freed, and my heart goes out to the families whose loved ones will not be returning to them.

Donald Trump's judicial attack on AG James is anti-American, anti-democratic, and dangerous.

Yesterday I joined my colleague from across the aisle in a bipartisan call for @governor.ny.gov to sign my bill with @amypaulin.bsky.social to prohibit for-profit hospice in New York State. nystateofpolitics.com/state-of-pol...

Today I stood with my colleagues in the NYS Bipartisan Pro-Choice Legislative Caucus calling on @governor.ny.gov to sign a package of critical bills protecting New Yorkers' reproductive freedom. www.nysenate.gov/newsroom/vid...

Two years later we remember those killed in Hamas' horrific terrorist attack on October 7, 2023, the hostages who died later and those still being held, the unimaginable destruction and tens of thousands killed in Gaza, and those now displaced and starving. This war must end.

G'mar chatima tova and a meaningful fast to all who are celebrating Yom Kippur!

Crypto miners are driving up electricity costs while providing nothing of value to the state or local communities. My bill w/@amannakelles.bsky.social will ensure they pay their fair share of the costs they create, while helping regular NYers pay the bills. More: www.nysenate.gov/newsroom/pre...

The data is clear that for-profit hospice leads to lower quality care at a time when patients are most vulnerable. I urge @governor.ny.gov to sign my bill with @amypaulin.bsky.social to stop the expansion of for-profit hospice in New York. www.timesunion.com/opinion/arti...

Yesterday we stood in the rain to call on @governor.ny.gov to sign the 100-ft rule repeal, end forced subsidies for gas system expansion, and save gas ratepayers millions of dollars.

Hot off the presses🔆: @emilyassembly.bsky.social & @lizkrueger.bsky.social just introduced the #SUNNYAct--a bill to make #BalconySolar possible in New York. We're psyched to support this bill in the coming year and make solar accessible to renters and apartment residents across the city and state!🔆

Balcony solar is a powerful tool to deliver enhanced energy independence and affordability to millions of New Yorkers who are currently shut out of the solar economy. Sunshine is free, and my bill with @emilyassembly.bsky.social will let NYers finally plug in. More: www.nysenate.gov/newsroom/pre...

It turns out that when you stand up to Trump's lawlessness instead of trying to make deals that are just giving a mouse a cookie, you can have modern energy generation without building old-fashioned, dirty, expensive pipelines. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/22/c...

Empower+ is a highly successful program the reduces NYers' energy costs as well as their emissions. As Trump beats an embarrassing retreat from US climate leadership, we must ensure Empower+ has the support it needs to help even more NYers save money. www.syracuse.com/opinion/2025...

Best wishes for health, hope, peace, and sweetness to spread far and wide in this new year. Shana Tovah!

The Trump playbook: ✅Step 1: Make things worse for Americans. ✅Step 2: Cover up the evidence. ✅Step 3: Declare America "great again!" ✅Step 4: Repeat. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

The last-minute changes made to substantial equivalency standards in this year’s budget were shameful. They abandoned our moral and legal responsibility to ensure that all our children receive a basic education, and they will hurt Jewish children the most. www.timesunion.com/state/articl...

New Yorkers are being railroaded into paying for Donald Trump's pipeline, a gift to his Big Oil donors on our dime. Today's PSC vote was a setback, but there is still time for @governor.ny.gov to put a stop to this nonsense.

PSC should not fast-track National Grid's erroneous claims about the NESE pipeline. It will raise costs for NYers and set back our climate targets, and we shouldn't be rushing into it. My statement with @senatorharckham.bsky.social and @deborahjglick.bsky.social: www.nysenate.gov/newsroom/pre...

50+ legislators joined @lizkrueger.bsky.social & me in urging @governor.ny.gov to sign our energy affordability bill. Ending NY's 100-foot rule will save customers $200M annually on their utility bills & protect our climate. Read the full letter here: drive.google.com/file/d/1rHFf...

Ezra Klein is right: “Political violence is contagious... It should terrify us all. The foundation of a free society is the ability to participate in it without fear of violence. Political violence is always an attack against us all.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/o...

Today, once again, we remember those who were lost, those who were left behind, and those gave "the last full measure of devotion" in service to others. Let us honor their memories by working every day for a more just and peaceful world.

Whether it's RFK Jr, Elon Musk, the kids at DOGE, or big corporations, nobody should have access to your personal health data w/out your consent. That's why @lindabrosenthal.bsky.social and I urge @governor.ny.gov to sign the NY Health Information Privacy Act. empirereportnewyork.com/new-york-nee...

I’m so grateful to earn the support of Senator @lizkrueger.bsky.social, one of the most prolific and principled legislators in our state. We will accomplish great things together for the people of New York City.

I am proud to endorse @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for mayor. He is the only candidate with real solutions to the problems that are front of mind for NYers, and the only one committed to serving the interests of NYers, not his own and especially not Donald Trump's. www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/z...

Last week I spoke w/@thebrianlehrershow.bsky.social about why it would be a mistake for @governor.ny.gov to approve new pipelines - expensive, dirty, and unnecessary. We need to be standing up to Trump's agenda, not aiding and abetting the selling out of our future. www.wnyc.org/story/two-ne...

@lizkrueger.bsky.social saying it straight on @thebrianlehrershow.bsky.social: Trump promised to lower energy costs, but he's lying. Prices have only gone up as he thwarts green sources.

Donna Lieberman of @nyclu.org is absolutely right. It's vital that @governor.ny.gov sign these critical bills to protect New Yorkers' reproductive freedom, including the NY Health Information Privacy Act that I carry w/@lindabrosenthal.bsky.social. www.timesunion.com/opinion/arti...

Exactly one week after the mass shooting in Manhattan, @elisestefanik.bsky.social's response is to make our country's irresponsibly lax gun safety protections even worse, attacking NYS's laws that have given us the third-lowest number of gun deaths in the nation. northcountrynow.com/stories/rep-...

Today we're experiencing yet another toxic air quality day caused by climate change-driven wildfire smoke. If you're wondering whether the climate crisis affects you or your family, answer this question - do you breathe air? www.npr.org/2025/08/04/n...

This is good news - NYPA is already halfway to the 15GW we need to close the 2030 gap. Let's stop wasting our time and money chasing nuclear rainbows and buckle down for more of this kind of reality-based planning. www.timesunion.com/capitol/arti...

Yet another senseless and horrific mass shooting yesterday. My thoughts are with @nypdnews.bsky.social and the loved ones of the officer and civilians - our fellow New Yorkers - who were killed. Thank you to the first responders who rushed to the scene and prevented even greater tragedy.

🎉 Wow! Today’s Building Code update makes NY the first state to require new buildings to be all-electric. We commend NY’s Building Code Council, @governor.ny.gov @lizkrueger.bsky.social, & @emilyassembly.bsky.social for achieving this landmark victory for #BuildingDecarb. zpr.io/2niwk4i7Xvs3

Congestion pricing is the gift that keeps on giving. It's smart policy that has rapidly delivered real results for New Yorkers - in the zone, in the city as a whole, and even in the wider metro region. www.amny.com/news/congest...

There are a LOT of issues that need to be addressed before NYS should consider heading down the nuclear path... youtu.be/JBqVVBUdW84?...

On Saturday, July 19 from 12pm - 3pm, members of the MTA Accessibility team will be at 14 St-Union Square station offering riders an opportunity to test the NaviLens and NaviLensGO wayfinding apps and directly give feedback to the team.

Over the last 249 years, through immense struggle and sacrifice, Americans of good will have inched our country ever closer to our founding promise. Now, as much as any other time in our history, we are called upon to protect that progress and ensure it continues for the next dozen generations.

Everything about this Big Bad Bill is an attack on regular Americans to provide giveaways to Trump's billionaire bosses. Millions of New Yorkers will lose healthcare, food aid, and rent relief, and see their utility costs go up. Republicans have kneecapped our country for a generation.

Congratulations @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for winning the Democratic nomination with a hard-fought campaign and a powerful message that resonated with such a broad spectrum of New Yorkers.

Today is your last chance to vote in the NYC primaries for mayor, comptroller, public advocate, and city council. Polls are open until 9pm. Find more info at nycvotes.org, and be careful in this heat!

I have significant concerns about @governor.ny.gov's intention to build new nuclear power plants in New York communities.

Thursday: out at the polls (in the rain) with Upper East Side icon @lizkrueger.bsky.social!

📍 Upper East Side @lizkrueger.bsky.social

Having the confidence of @lizkrueger.bsky.social means the world to me. Her dedication and passion for public service are part of why she’s so beloved—by me and her constituents alike!

So proud to be out talking to voters today with my #1 choice for mayor, @bradlander.bsky.social!

Happy #Juneteenth. This day recognizes threads of America's past and present that must not be forgotten or erased - the atrocity of enslavement, the triumph of liberation, and the incredible resilience of African American people and culture in overcoming centuries of oppression.

My Town Hall with Congressman Nadler starts at 6pm. If you can't make it there in person, catch the livestream here: youtube.com/live/AmN5ceu...

The rate at which the Trump Regime's masked paramilitaries are arresting opposition elected officials is alarming to say the least. Not something I ever thought I'd have to say in America. www.amny.com/news/brad-la...

Thrilled this bill passed! Utility companies shouldn’t have a blank check to expand polluting gas pipelines & force NYers to pay for it. This isn’t everything we hoped for, but it's a step toward a healthier & more affordable NY. TY to @lizkrueger.bsky.social & the outstanding advocates.

We must never accept or normalize political violence. Targeted assassination of elected officials is as much a threat to the survival of our democracy as anything else happening in our country right now. My thoughts are with the victims and their families, and the people of MN.
