time for US-Canada relations, and we have never had a President who adequately grappled with the genocide the US perpetuated against indigenous North Americans, but it was inspiring to be present with a group of people committed to finding a way forward. (2/2)

This Indigenous Peoples' Day, I was proud to join the Canadian Consul General and representatives of the Lenape Nation for a gift of two maple trees by the Canadian government, to be planted in City Hall Park. It goes without saying that our President has made this a rough (1/2)

Abolish ICE.

ICE OUT OF NEW YORK 🚫 Out of our schools 🚫 Out of our hospitals 🚫 Out of our communities 🚫 Out of New York. Period.

In this installment of State Government 101, I cover the final steps of how a bill finally becomes a law, and how long it can take for a bill to be signed and enacted!

I’m so honored to receive the endorsement of the New York State AFL-CIO! I look forward to partnering with them in Albany to fight for safe and healthy workplaces, regulate AI’s impact on labor, and support the countless working New Yorkers they represent.
