NEW: I'm introducing legislation w/ @BrianKavanaghNY to enact a statewide moratorium on evictions and foreclosures during the #coronaviruspandemic and future emergency declarations. No one should ever be put at risk & forced to look for shelter during a public health emergency.

Hey @blinkfitness : we literally just signed a bill into law in New York to stop business from doing this. You could wait until it takes effect in February & face consequences for violating the law (plus public shaming), or you could do the right thing now, and change your policy.

@JessicaValenti Hi Jessica! Per our cancellation policy we only accept cancellation requests in-gym or via certified letter. Has he tried to cancel previously? I can look up his account to see if there are any notes.

Thank you @AOC . I'm proud to carry legislation (S34) that would require insurers to cover PrEP/PEP. A drug doesn’t do much good if people can't afford to take it.

. @AOC to Gilead CEO: The list price [for Truvada for PrEP] is almost $2,000 in the US. Why is it $8 in Australia?

Today is the anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. 146 people were killed in a preventable tragedy fueled by greed. I invite @POTUS to come to my district and visit the site. There's a lesson in what happens when you value money over lives.

The New York State Senate just voted to pass my bill to legalize surrogacy. My two beautiful daughters were born through gestational surrogacy. They are everything to me. Every family in NY, whether LGBTQ or struggling with infertility, should have the same opportunity.

On this exact date in 1986 Roy Cohn was disbarred in New York. 35 years later Rudy Giuliani’s law license was suspended in NY. June 24 is not a good day to be an attorney for Donald Trump, but it’s a wonderful day for everyone else.

To suggest any equivalence between choosing not to vaccinate your children and protect them and others from illnesses like polio, and the horrific suffering of mothers whose children were murdered, is frankly appalling and should be called out as such.

Jimmy Carter forever deserves respect for his forward-thinking embrace of public health initiatives. Through his efforts, guinea worm disease is nearly eradicated. There were 3.5 million cases in 1986.

. @NYPDnews , @NYCMayor : 1) Was an officer inside this vehicle? 2) Why did you provide an escort to a vehicle that was then allowed to drive directly into a crowd? 3) Does the NYPD have protocols to consider cars as potential weapons given their use as such by white supremacists?
