Join us on Monday, September 22, from 9 - 12 outside of Penn South on West 26th Street between 8th and 9th Ave for our community shred truck!

Democracy is built on our bookshelves. Proud to join my colleagues for the ribbon cutting of the renovated Muhlenberg Library! Investing in libraries means investing in future generations, giving them space to learn, grow, and be inspired by the stories of their heroes.

Transgender students are protected by law, full stop. This transparently desperate attempt to play culture warrior with the safety of kids is abhorrent. Our students will continue to learn with dignity and this mayor will soon be irrelevant. gaycitynews.com/mayor-adams-...

Myself, nearly a dozen of my colleges, and so many more brave New Yorkers took a stand against this fascist federal government who is kidnapping and illegally holding members of our community. We were arrested defending the dignity of our neighbors. #ICEoutofNY

Myself and all of the elected officials who stood to defend our neighbors being detained in 26 Federal Plaza have been released. We will continue to fight back against the fascist, authoritarian takeover of our nation. IMMIGRANTS ARE NEW YORK!

Happening now: AM Simone and colleagues inside of 26 Federal Plaza were detained for defending the rights of their immigrant neighbors.

Tune in to Pix11 News at 7:30 tomorrow morning to watch me talk about today’s casino votes!

Proud to stand with West Siders after the votes on Times Square and Avenir casinos. My priority is always my constituents, who’ve made clear they want investment in affordable housing, green space, schools, union jobs, and the arts.

It was wonderful to meet with friends old and new at the Chelsea Green Morning Coffee Chat last Friday! I am always here to listen, answer questions, and make sure your concerns are heard in Albany. I can’t wait to see more of you around our community this fall!

On my way back from the YIMBYTown conference in New Haven. Ihad a great time speaking with leaders from across the nation about both bold and simple solutions to some of biggest issues, like the housing crisis and public transit. (1/2)

Come one, come all! I have a shred truck this fall! Join me on Monday, September 22, from 9 - 12 outside of Penn South on West 26th Street between 8th and 9th Ave. (1/2)

NY IS FALLING BEHIND! We must pass my bill, the MELT Act and protect all New Yorkers from secret police wearing masks.

Thank you to the Manhattan Plaza Tenants Association and Entertainment Community Fund for bringing neighbors together at today’s Block Festival. In these times, building local community matters more than ever, and it was great to connect with so many friends in Hell’s Kitchen.

The final vote for the Avenir and Caesars Palace Times Square Casino proposals will take place this Wednesday, 09/17. To ensure your voice is heard, submit your comments to [email protected] and [email protected] on or before 09/16!

From seahorses to civil rights, no book should be banned. My bill, the Freedom to Read Act passed the Legislature, now we need Gov. Hochul to sign it. Add your name to protect our right to read! ✍️ Link in bio.

We will never forget 9/11, the thousands of neighbors, friends, and loved ones murdered that day by terrorists, and the hole it left in our hearts.

It was great to connect with residents at Penn South and London Terrace yesterday! I am always eager to hear your concerns, connect you to resources, and discuss all your ideas to make our neighborhood safer, healthier, and more affordable.

A reminder on National Read a Book Day, that stories within books are critical for us to learn about who we are. My bill, the Freedom to Read Act will protect against book bans and defend the right for all readers to explore and form their identity.

Last night, I spoke with Anthony DiLorenzo on Pix11 News about our mental healthcare system. Our system is failing families like the Mossetteys, and we must enact my bill ,the SUPPORT Act, to ensure people receive the mental healthcare they need. Full story & bill linked in bio.

I just spoke with Anthony DiLorenzo on Pix 11 about our mental healthcare system. We need proven solutions like supportive housing in every corner of New York. I won’t stop fighting until everyone has the support they need and no one is allowed to suffer alone on our streets. Tune in at 10:00!

First Airbnb allows price-gouging short term rentals to proliferate on their app, pricing out long time residents. Now their co-founder is attacking hard working immigrant New Yorkers. These are not NY values.

Statement from Assemblymember Tony Simone on retirement of @nadler.house.gov

Happy Labor Day! Today we honor the workers who built our city and keep it moving forward. From fair wages to safer workplaces, the labor movement has shaped our rights. Let’s stand in solidarity with unions and working families.

While rising costs and an urgent housing crisis drive New Yorkers in my district out of the neighborhood they love, Zohran Mamdani has built a movement laser-focused on these exact issues. That is why I am excited to endorse him to be our next mayor.

I was thrilled to be invited to Shakespeare in the Park and experience theatre the way it was meant to be, in our community. I am proud to share that I have secured $45,000 in funding to further the Public Theatre in its mission to bring theatre to everyone! Link in bio for free tickets

Honored to speak at the @thenyic.bsky.social New York Proud Campaign Press Conference outside the Flatiron Building. Standing and speaking with advocates, artists, & leaders to uplift immigrant justice and visibility through the power of public art. Link in bio for more info on the project!

I had an enlightening conversation with @cappressroom about my new bill aimed towards protecting the separation of non-profits and government. Trump’s attack on the Johnson Amendment is unconstitutional and our bill would protect this distinction. Full podcast in bio

New Yorkers aren’t leaving over taxes, they’re leaving because housing is too expensive. By 2030, we could lose three congressional seats. Let’s build more housing housing, and save New York’s, and our country’s, future.

Happy #NationalDogDay! 🐾 Our pets deserve safety, compassion, and protection. That’s why I’m fighting to: ✅ Invest in animal shelters ✅ Crack down on animal fighting. ✅ Pass the PAWS (Protecting Animals Walking on the Streets) Act!

Vanderbilt is coming to NYC! I’ve worked alongside local partners to preserve the General Theological Seminary as Vanderbilt’s next campus in Chelsea. Excited to see new educational opportunities expand—and maybe a little Southern cowboy charm ride into the neighborhood too! 🤠📚

Out at Penn South this week connecting with neighbors! Grateful to hear your concerns, share resources, and talk about how we can keep our community strong and united. Always proud to serve this district.

Statement from Assemblymember Tony Simone on Donald Trumps Attacks on Children Seeking Gender Affirming Care @lindabrosenthal.bsky.social

Unaccountable. Unidentifiable. Out of control. From upstate to downstate, New Yorkers are united to unmask ICE and restore trust in our laws. It’s time to pass the MELT Act. Thank you to @PatFahy46 for carrying this bill in the Senate!

Just had a sneak peak of the progress at the American Folk Art Museum!📍2 Lincoln Square on the Upper West Side! 🎨 Everyone should come and visit this free museum (voted #1 by Newsweek readers in their Best Art Museum 2025) when it reopens to the public later this fall!

I was proud to speak at the #LawyersInTraining closing ceremony. These future lawyers explored the Constitution, analyzed cases, and practiced arguments before NYC’s top jurors. I look forward to working alongside them to build a more just city!

On #NationalNonProfitDay, we celebrate organizations that feed families, tutor kids, & strengthen communities. The Johnson Amendment keeps them nonpartisan, but now it's under attack by Trump My Nonpartisan Pulpit Act will keep nonprofits serving people, not politicians @jamesskoufis.bsky.social

Great spending Thursday evening at London Terrace connecting with neighbors! I enjoyed hearing your thoughts, concerns, and ideas for our community. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to chat — your voices help guide my work in Albany.

There is a GPP sized hole in the middle of MSMX where new housing and green space won’t be built. It’s time for the state to step up… REOPEN THE GPP! @nycplanning.bsky.social

Trump vowed to destroy the Johnson Amendment — and now the IRS is helping him do it. In New York, we’re fighting back. My bill, the Non-Partisan Pulpit Act, will keep tax-exempt groups out of politics and protect the wall between church and state. #NPPulpit #FaithNotPolitics

I was proud to attend a back to school drive at Madison Square Garden today, where we distributed hundreds of school supplies to students across the city. Every student deserves access to high-quality resources that will help them thrive in the classroom this fall! 🎒📝📚

It isn’t just about bricks and blueprints — it is about believing in the power of public investment and the promise of a more inclusive future for the arts. Honored to join the groundbreaking of the #ToddHaimesTheatre with @roundaboutnyc.bsky.social 📷Marcus Middleton
