Congestion pricing is a generation-defining policy. It will bring our transit system into the 21st century, and any further delays will only exacerbate the pollution and congestion that New Yorkers face every day. The program must be allowed to go forward now!

We have a message for the governor. Bail reform IS public safety. Leaders look at data and how human lives are affected. Turning back the progress we’ve made would be surrendering to fear mongering and a denial of the facts. I’m urging the governor: keep bail reform intact!

. @Newsday does a deep dive into the affordability crisis on Long Island: "planning experts agree on the solution: creating more of a mix of housing on Long Island that includes multifamily units and apartments, some of it centered around train stations."

This bill is a big deal. NY is leading the way in tackling the climate crisis and other states should take notice. We’re building a sustainable future with all electric buildings while saving New Yorkers money. This is a jobs bill and one that will help save Mother Earth! 🌎

It was fantastic to kick off summer right with friends at @OpenNYForAll last night! The housing crisis isn’t going anywhere, and I’m glad to work with a group that is such a strong advocate for policies that will tackle the affordability issues facing NYC.

Friends - Today, August 23 is the Democratic Primary for Congress. I urge you to join me in supporting one of my heroes for RE-election, Jerry Nadler. In fact, The New York Times has endorsed Jerry! 1/10

I may have been disinvited to Pride Night but seems like pride was missing too. “The New York Rangers did not wear Pride Night jerseys or use rainbow stick tape… on Friday night, despite promoting them in ticket sales materials leading up to the game”

NYC Pride unaware of Rangers' jersey decision

Great 🧵 from @MarkLevineNYC on density and local control. NYC should not be limited by Albany in how we choose to grow. I’m working to tackle the current crisis and deliver the affordable housing of tomorrow!

Around the country, and in NY state, there are communities fighting for “local control” to avoid mandates to build more housing. Did you know that here in Manhattan we are being denied local control that we need to….CREATE more housing? Yes, really. 🧵

NYS is blanketed in thick toxic smoke from fossil fueled wildfires! It couldn’t be more clear: NYS needs to fully fund our renewable energy future. I’m a proud supporter of the #ClimateJobsJustice package, the Climate Superfund Act, and the Climate and Community Protection Fund!

Proud to be in Foley Square today to protest the ongoing attempt to overturn #RoeVsWade . I call on Congress to codify Roe v. Wade now! There is still much to do to in NY to protect abortion and reproductive health. Read my proposals below. #abortionrights

NYC should be building at least 50k new homes a year, not 11k. We’re falling behind other states who are taking action to resolve the affordable housing crisis, and we must incentivize healthy growth in NY so we can get back on track to building the levels of new housing we need.

New York City is on track to complete only about 11,000 new housing units this year, half the number built in 2022 and a fraction of what is needed to deal with the city’s housing crisis.

Students without proper nutrition struggle to focus, have lower attendance, and are at ⬆️ risk of health problems. Today I joined advocates and colleagues in calling for free healthy school meals for every student. Waiting longer means students going hungry & families struggling.
