The @newyorkbloodcenter.bsky.social has declared a second summer blood emergency, the first time it has ever done so in one summer. If you are able to donate blood, please use the following link to schedule an appointment: bit.ly/4wjPyqk

Nearly half a million New Yorkers are losing their health care today. Assembly Member @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social is right, we need to fight for the people, not tax breaks.

This week, the Assembly passed my legislation establishing landmark protections for New Yorkers carrying private education loan debt, A.4922C. (1/3)

Maria Coto was a Westchester County DSS worker who tragically lost her life on the job. She knocked on the wrong door and was beaten so badly that she died of her injuries in the hospital. My legislation to help prevent such tragedies, A.7833A, passed both houses of the Legislature yesterday. (1/3)

Amazing day in Albany yesterday rallying for the #SUNNYAct☀️ for plug-in solar & to defend our climate law! Shout out to all the allies who joined us, esp. @dianaforqueens.com @sarahana.bsky.social @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social @rachelmayny.bsky.social @joannesimonbk52.bsky.social & AM Mitaynes!

NY lags behind other states when it comes to earned time & other measures that enable incarcerated people to demonstrate rehabilitation & reduce their sentences. I'm a proud supporter of the Earned Time Act & am ready to vote yes on this bill, in committee & on the floor.

Indian Point closed for a variety of reasons. Reopening it now, despite cheaper alternatives being available, and in the context of the most chaotic and risky presidential administration in American history, is a total non-starter.

Big Oil & gas are trying to dismantle the CLCPA. NY must stay committed to our landmark climate goals. Rising utility costs are driven by maintaining expensive, outdated gas infrastructure, not the CLCPA. ICYMI, read @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social's op-ed: www.cityandstateny.com/opinion/2026...

I joined parents & educators in Croton with @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social to call for increased UPK capacity & funding. We appreciate the Governor’s support, but families across NY still face inequity. Pre-K shouldn’t depend on geography or a lottery. It’s time to fully fund UPK statewide.

We're hearing lots of smears about the CLCPA because change is scary, & it's easy to keep doing the same things we've done for decades. But weakening this law would be a mistake. We CAN implement our climate law in ways that don't cost NYers tons of extra money. (1/2)

I stand in solidarity with everyone participating in today's general strike. We must take every peaceful action we can to ensure that the constitutional rights of everyone on United States soil are recognized and respected.

Our current moment has many historical parallels. We should be trying to learn from all of them instead of remaining in denial about the danger we are in. We must speak out and take action at every opportunity; we can't just watch when our nation starts to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Are we allowed to learn from history on Holocaust Remembrance Day? During remarks on yesterday's resolution, a colleague interrupted my floor speech to say that current events were not germane to the topic at hand. Watch: www.threads.com/@amdanaleven...

It's State of the State day! Here in the People's House, we're excited to welcome back one of our own for a visit - former Assemblymember & current @mayor.nyc.gov Zohran Mamdani. Looking forward to working together on big plans this session to make NY more affordable!

Nurses are the backbone of our hospitals; we cannot have a well-functioning system without them. I urge hospital leaders to negotiate in good faith and finalize contracts that ensure appropriate wages and benefits and improve the safety of nurses' working conditions.

On climate, more delay always means more death. Great piece here on how New York must stop stalling from @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social. www.cityandstateny.com/opinion/2026...

As session gets underway, affordability is top of mind for me and my colleagues. Child care is one of the top expenses for New York families, surpassing rent as the top expense for many households. The average New Yorker spends $22,000 on child care each year for just one child. (1/3)

At last night's Indian Point Decommissioning Oversight Board meeting, Senator Pete Harckham and NYS Assemblymember Dana Levenberg honored Richard Webster of Riverkeeper with a NYS Senate Commendation Award for his tireless advocacy surrounding Indian Point’s closure and cleanup. Thank you, Richard!

I’m beginning my tour of the three correctional facilities in my district at Sing Sing, where I’ll be joined by @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social as we meet with correctional officers, support staff, administration members and incarcerated individuals to discuss ways to improve our correctional system.

Next Thursday, 12/18 from 6-8 PM, I'll be co-hosting an info session about social housing with several of my colleagues. A.6265 would establish a Social Housing Development Authority to create & maintain permanently affordable, eco-friendly homes. (1/2)

It was an honor and a pleasure to be joined by former Assemblymember Dick Gottfried and a panel of distinguished guests for a town hall about the New York Health Act Tuesday night. (1/3)

ICYMI: Tomorrow, 12/9 from 6-8 PM, I'll be co-hosting a hybrid town hall about the New York Health Act at the Desmond-Fish Public Library in Garrison. I will be joined by a panel of healthcare experts as well as the author of the New York Health Act, former Assembly Health Chair Dick Gottfried.

A primary driver of high costs in NY is the cost of housing. A multi-pronged approach to bringing these costs down must include electrification, & our All-Electric Buildings Act. Read my op-ed with Assemblymember Anna Kelles in today's @timesunion.com: www.timesunion.com/opinion/arti...

Food insecurity is an urgent concern right now, as the threat of SNAP benefits ending November 1 looms. Click here to learn more about what is happening, where to find food if you need it, how New York State is responding, and more: conta.cc/48P9NDc

Families are bracing for double-digit energy bill hikes this winter, but NY is cutting the program that helps. Yesterday, @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social & advocates pushed to stop a 66% cut to EmPower+, which gives up to $10K per household for energy-saving upgrades. www.wamc.org/news/2025-10...

Every year on September 11, we pause to remember the lives of those who were lost, the bravery of those who responded, and the resilience of our communities in the months and years that followed that fateful day in 2001.

I am horrified to learn that Charlie Kirk has been shot. We must all condemn such violence whenever it happens, no matter who the perpetrators or the victims may be, or what they believe.

For the sake of our planet and our pocketbooks, New York should be leading the way on renewable energy instead of following Trump's instructions. Wise words from @lizkrueger.bsky.social:

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...

I joined local colleagues & advocates for the kickoff of Fair Share America's Stop the Billionaire Giveaway Bus Tour in Croton on Saturday. This tour is highlighting the big ugly bill that aims to take healthcare and food from the neediest Americans to give massive tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy.

The Assembly wrapped up the legislative session in the wee hours of this morning, and I'm proud to say that 12 of my prime-sponsored bills passed both houses. (1/2)

I recently joined Jonathan Gordon of News 12's Power & Politics to discuss immigration and the ways in which the Trump Administration's actions are undermining instead of supporting public safety. Watch it here: bronx.news12.com/power-politi...

Thank You Assemblymember @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social for Putting People Over Plastic. Please work to get the Plastics Reduction Bill, A1749 to the floor for a vote! @speakercarlheastie.bsky.social @nyassemblymajority.bsky.social

As of today, five of my prime-sponsored bills have passed the Senate, with more expected to follow soon. These bills will protect essential workers, affirm the responsibilities of utilities to property owners, support the health of volunteer firefighters, and promote local economic development.

We deserve to be safe & free. The federal government should pursue comprehensive immigration reform instead of totalitarianism. Read my full statement regarding current ICE tactics and the use of the military in California at the Croton Chronicle: thecrotonchronicle.substack.com/p/dana-leven...

Grateful to @newyorkstateag.bsky.social & the coalition of state AGs who fought the President's illegal trade war. New Yorkers can thank these stalwart defenders of the rule of law for protecting our pocketbooks and our rights.

A court just ruled in our favor and permanently stopped the Trump administration’s illegal tariffs. This is a major victory for working families, businesses, and the rule of law. The president cannot ignore the Constitution and impose massive tax hikes on the American people.

We're grateful to @amdanalevenberg.bsky.social for putting people over plastic in NY by sponsoring A1749, the Packaging Reduction & Recycling Infrastructure Act to reduce single-use packaging by 30%. @speakercarlheastie.bsky.social, please bring this bill to the floor for a vote.

ICYMI: The new state budget passed last week! Read all about it here: conta.cc/4k0VWws

In the wake of Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall on May 4, my office is hearing from residents who are outraged about the forcible removal of women, including one of my constituents, from that meeting in a moment that has now gone viral. (1/2)

Congratulations to all who are rejoicing at the selection of the next Pope, the first to come from the United States. I send my best wishes to His Holiness Pope Leo XIV and those he will lead.

Flowers are a nice gift, but equal pay is what moms really need. In our state, moms working full-time only earn 79 cents for every $1 that dads earn, on average. (1/2)

This #NursesWeek, the #NYSAssemblyMajority honors the dedicated professionals who provide life-saving care with skill, compassion, and strength. Thank you to New York’s nurses for all you do—every day–in every community. 💙🩺 #ThankYouNurses

This morning, I joined Congressman George Latimer, state and local officials, and veterans to speak out against proposed cuts to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. I am very concerned about what such cuts could mean for the veterans in my district and the VA Home at Montrose. (1/3)

@newyorkstateag.bsky.social will hold a community impact hearing from 6-8 PM on Thursday, 5/8 to hear from New Yorkers about the impact Trump administration policies are having on us and our families. ⬇️

Let’s celebrate #EarthDay with a solution to the climate crisis! I’m calling on my colleagues in the @nyassemblymajority.bsky.social and Senate to pass the #NYHEATAct so we can have lower utility bills and cleaner energy. #RenewableHeatNow #OffFossilFuels

Pope Francis gave hope to so many through his solidarity with the poor and marginalized people everywhere. He was truly in touch with the world & its changes because of his commitment to social justice, rooted in longstanding teachings of the Catholic Church. I join so many in mourning his passing.

Local food banks are a lifeline for many struggling to afford basic necessities. At a time when need is urgent, the cuts by the Trump Administration are devastating, leaving hungry families to fend for themselves.

Our current president is overstepping his constitutional authority and endangering our nation's safety and prosperity on a daily basis. It is time for Congress to use its constitutional authority to put a stop to this chaos.

An attack like this, on a Jewish leader during Passover, is chilling. I applaud Gov. Shapiro for standing strong in the face of this attempt on his life, and the law enforcement officers who quickly intervened and apprehended the suspect. (1/2)
