New Yorkers are owed a full accounting, not silence.

ICE has long operated as a rogue agency, and today’s shooting is a chilling reminder of how little regard it has for the safety of New Yorkers. I am calling on the DHS Inspector General to open an immediate and independent investigation, and on ICE to release all footage of the shooting.

Firing multiple rounds into a car with a child inside, on a busy residential street in the Bronx, is abhorrent and indefensible. It put an entire neighborhood in danger and left a man seriously injured.

I am outraged by the ICE shooting of a man in Marble Hill today as he sat in his car beside a 5-year-old child.

SNAP helps nearly 3 million New Yorkers afford groceries. Today, the federal share of SNAP administrative costs falls from 50% to 25%, shifting more costs to New York. I'm fighting to delay Trump's next SNAP cost shift and protect this critical lifeline.

Wishing a meaningful Yom Kippur to everyone observing in the Bronx and beyond. May this be a time for reflection, forgiveness, and connection with the people who matter most. G'mar Chatimah Tovah.

Generaciones de neoyorquinos latinos han ayudado a forjar el Bronx que llamamos nuestro hogar. ¡Feliz Mes de la Herencia Hispana! Sigamos celebrando nuestras culturas, tradiciones e historias, y construyendo juntos el futuro del Bronx.

Generations of Latino New Yorkers have helped shape the Bronx we call home. This Hispanic Heritage Month, we celebrate our cultures, traditions, and histories. Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! Let us continue to celebrate our roots and build the future of the Bronx together.

To our Jewish neighbors in the Bronx and beyond: wishing you and your loved ones a sweet and meaningful Rosh Hashanah. May the new year bring health and happiness. Shana Tova!

The Legionnaires’ disease outbreak in Melrose and Morrisania is a serious matter for our community. My heart is with the Bronxites affected and their families. If you were in this area and develop flu-like symptoms, seek medical attention. Early treatment matters. Read my full statement below:

September 11 changed our city, our country, and countless lives forever. Today, I remember every family who lost someone they loved, every survivor who carries the memories of that day, and every first responder who ran toward danger to save others. We will never forget.

The Garífuna community is an important part of the Bronx, and this issue is deeply personal to many of my constituents. I'm urging Secretary Rubio and the State Department to press the Honduran government to protect Garífuna families and uphold their rights.

Suicide prevention is personal to me. On World Suicide Prevention Day, I want to remind anyone struggling that you are not alone. There is help, there is hope, and you do not have to face it alone. Call or text 988 for support.

Happy Labor Day! Today, we celebrate everyone who shows up every day to work hard, care for their families, support their communities, and keep our city moving forward. Thank you for all that you do for the Bronx and beyond.
