How have NYC's personal income tax revenues changed from before and after the pandemic? Our latest report finds that revenue collections rose significantly between 2019 and 2025. More:

Tomorrow, November 12 at 6:30 pm at St. Ann's in Brooklyn, I'll be hosting a conversation with Sally Abed and Alon-Lee Green, the Palestinian and Jewish co-directors of Standing Together. RSVP at the link and join us: share.hsforms.com/1iUYqnT5lTwm...

One last Prevailing Wage Council as Comptroller! Loved introducing Comptroller-elect @marklevinenyc.bsky.social to this group of labor leaders, contractors, and agency reps working to ensure that all NYC workers get the pay they deserve.

As I testified before Congress earlier this year, I thought $56 billion was extremely excessive compensation for a CEO. But thanks to Elon Musk’s crony Tesla board, a $1 TRILLION pay package for him was just approved. Now shareholders are on the hook for this outrageous sum.

With @nycsanitation.bsky.social updating its Solid Waste Management Plan for the first time in 20 years, New Yorkers have a historic opportunity to create a more sustainable and equitable citywide waste system. @alignny.bsky.social's report offers a true roadmap to achieve these community goals 👇

Solidarity with @sbworkersunited.org! Starbucks releases their holiday menu today—but as a long-term shareholder, my office implores the company to offer something better than a Peppermint Mocha. Time to restart negotiations and promptly reach a fair contract with its workers.

From audits to pension funds, we know NYC's fiscal health will be under "comptrol" with @marklevinenyc.bsky.social! Congratulations to the Comptroller-elect! Looking forward to working together on our administrations' transition.

The Annual Summary Contracts Report for FY25 is here! This report provides the public with an overview of what New York City purchased in the prior fiscal year, who we purchased it from, and how these purchases (we call them “procurements”) were made.

One last Halloween as Comptroller! Loved celebrating this spooky and special day (and handing out lots of candy) at the Park Slope Halloween Parade.

A judge just ordered the Trump admin to continue paying for food stamps during the shutdown. But that’s not a permanent solution for preventing nearly 3 million New Yorkers from going hungry. Time for Nicole Malliotakis & the Republican-controlled Congress to reopen the government and fund SNAP.

We are devastated by the tragic loss of two New Yorkers in yesterday's flash flooding. To keep New Yorkers safe as storms become more frequent and severe, we must strengthen key infrastructure—from our emergency response systems to our built infrastructure systems. ⬇️

The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for 2025 is here! This annual report covers financial trends and other statistics and other data on the City’s fiscal health. ➡️

🚨NEW AUDIT🚨

Body worn cameras should provide transparency and accountability, but failing to provide the footage undermines the program’s purpose.

Case in point: NYPD took more than 200 business days to grant or deny 1,137 FOIL requests.

Happy #Halloween, New York! You can always count on the Office of the NYC Comptroller to: 🎃 Prevent abuses in City con"TRICK"ting 🔮 Promote fiscal health and a sound "BOO"dget 🕷️ Conduct "FRIGHT"nancial audits of City agencies

The @nydailynews.com has been a cornerstone of NYC journalism for over 100 years, yet it only took five of hedge fund ownership to put it at risk.   I applaud @cndelarosa.bsky.social's "Too Tough to Die” resolution & proudly support @nydnunion.bsky.social’s fight to create a sustainable newsroom.

We've updated the @nyccomptroller.bsky.social’s Immigrant Workers Resource Guide with info to better protect immigrant and workplace rights in the face of growing threats from the Trump admin.   It's available online, in print, and translated into 13 languages: comptroller.nyc.gov/services/for...

The '23-24 school year had over 83k reported bus delays in NYC, yet Mayor Adams wants to rubberstamp the same failed contracts.   I urge the PEP to vote down these contracts & insist the City find another lane.   My @nydailynews.com op-ed on our broken bus system: www.nydailynews.com/2025/10/28/w...

NYC is the greatest immigrant city in the world. This #NationalImmigrantsDay, let's celebrate the generations of diversity and that copper-plated statue in the harbor that make us New Yorkers. And let's recommit to standing up for our immigrant neighbors against Trump and ICE.

Monitoring Hurricane Melissa and its impact on Jamaican & Haitian communities, especially New Yorkers with loved ones in its path.    We need a global effort to mitigate climate change & emergency preparedness in this new normal of the climate crisis. weather.com/storms/hurri...

Kicked off a very Brooklyn weekend at one of my favorite events: the Brooklyn PTA Fun Run! To “jog” your memory, this event has been held for 15+ years to raise funds for all Brooklyn public school PTAs. Shout out to @cmshahanahanif.bsky.social for hosting!

It's time for Starbucks to strike a deal. ☕️ Here's why I called on the Board to restart negotiations with unionized workers:

Trump wants to trap New Yorkers in traffic by blocking federal funding for the 34th Street Busway. @governor.ny.gov has been a transit champion, and right now city and state leaders need to continue standing up for mass transit and infrastructure against Washington bullies.

The Mets, Yankees, and Liberty numbers fell short this season. Wait till next year! (as old-timers still say in Brooklyn). But as our Monthly Economic Report reveals, our economy's numbers this fall are more mixed.

Loved stopping by Queens College, catching up with Prof. Jimmy Vacca, and visiting the @queenscollegecuny.bsky.social Tech Incubator where students can explore a world of learning and career pathways. The future leaders of our city are being forged in Queens!

OK, Boomer! This month’s Economic Spotlight reviews an interesting mix of numbers as we compare the demographics and economic realities faced by successive generations of New Yorkers – Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z.

The City's affordability crisis is harming our children. Every student should have a home to return to after school—but in NYC, 154,000 don't.

What a joy to march, roll, and scoot down Broadway for the 2025 #DisabilityPrideParade! And what an honor to serve as a Grand Marshall this year alongside Nick Astor, our Office’s Liaison for People with Disabilities.

Our kids can't wait. NYC urgently needs a school bus system that serves ALL students and families who rely on it. If the City allows itself to be bullied into 5-year contracts, it will prop up a broken and unjust system—tying the hands of the next mayor in the process.

It's pathetically clear that DHS won't hold its own officers accountable. But when masked ICE agents abuse their authority, they are not immune from local laws. I'm with @repdangoldman.bsky.social: NYPD must uphold the law when ICE breaks it.

The Brooklyn Conservatory of Music brings the healing power of music to our beloved borough. Loved helping to celebrate the groundbreaking of BCM's expanded campus!

NEW: I am calling on Starbucks's Board to restart negotiations with unionized workers. The company's labor relations have seriously deteriorated—with more than 100 Unfair Labor Practice complaints filed this year, worker protests over store closings, and threats to strike.

@weillcornell.bsky.social postdocs don't just drive critical research to protect our health, they're out front fighting to protect this important work from Trump. Proud to rally w/ @uawregion9a.bsky.social and the Weill Cornell Medicine Postdocs Union, fighting for a fair contract—with just cause!

After advocacy from thousands of New Yorkers, @governor.ny.gov and the state DOT tabled two major highway expansion projects—the Cross Bronx Expressway and Route 17. Grateful for a leader who defends mass transit from bullies in D.C. who have never stepped foot onto the subway!

Can't wait to join Bricks and Mortals's powerhouse panel at their Faith-Based Property Summit on Tuesday, October 21. We'll be talking about faith-based affordable housing and Housing First. Sign up here and join us: faithownedpropertysummit.org

As I told @KatyTurNBC, Donald Trump's political retribution against @NewYorkStateAG is pure tyranny. Tish James is a fearless fighter for New Yorkers, and we have her back all the way.

1.8 million NYC residents rely on SNAP, including 560,000 children. Donald Trump's new SNAP rules, including draconian "work documentation," are unfathomably cruel and will hurt thousands of New Yorkers and burden taxpayers.

Let’s be clear: we should be working to close Rikers, not turning it into a deportation outpost for ICE.

There is no investment more responsible than paying restaurant and service industry workers a living wage. I'll always stand with One Fair Wage to call for an end to subminimum wages so that our businesses, our working families, and our city can thrive!

Street vendors—many of whom are immigrants—create jobs and enliven NYC's food culture. Yet every day, NYPD roams the streets, targeting them. @council.nyc.gov must pass the Street Vendor Reform Package to end criminalization of vendors and increase access to licenses and permits.

Proud to stand with @workersjusticep.bsky.social in calling for @council.nyc.gov to pass @justinbrannan.bsky.social's Int 1332, which would eliminate unjust deactivations of app-based delivery workers. Deliveristas are hardworking essential workers who deserve secure jobs and just pay.

Truly great to hear that the state DOT scrapped proposals for its Cross Bronx Expressway "traffic diversion" that would put significant environmental and health burdens on the South Bronx. Grateful for @governor.ny.gov's leadership and for listening to thousands of residents across the borough.

Now is the time to meet Trump's tyranny and violent takeover of cities in the tradition of nonviolent protest. Through court watching, through peaceful resistance, through building an inclusive democracy—we will stand up for our neighbors and our values. #HandsOffNYC

Via @nyamnews.bsky.social: Our office found that excessive force complaints against the NYPD have surged in past three years to highest since 2013—a dramatic increase during Mayor Adams's tenure.

Chag Sukkot Sameach, New Yorkers! Sukkot is a wonderful reminder of our wanderings and our shared fragility—and that the only way through is solidarity.

Grateful to Rabbis for Ceasefire, @jfrejnyc.bsky.social and the other organizers of yesterday's mass mourning and collective atonement at Brooklyn Borough Hall. Let us steady and care for one another, and persevere together. #YomKippur

The city's Quarterly Cash Report for Q4 Fiscal Year 2025 is here. ⬇️ By the end of FY25, the cash balance stood at $12.229 billion, compared to $10.410 billion at the end of FY24. More:

Trump and Kristi Noem and Tricia McLaughlin can say what they want. But Americans can see with our own eyes what's happening. And we're not going to stop showing up until they stop abducting our neighbors.

The violence by ICE at 26 Federal Plaza is really escalating—with innocent journalists and civilians being thrown to the ground by masked agents.   I explained to @nicollewallace.bsky.social how it's all unfolding.
