It was an honor to listen to @darializaforny.bsky.social's wisdom as she engaged in conversation with @nickocchiuto.bsky.social: "As sociologists what is the point of studying society if we're not going to be active members in it? Care is at the heart of what we do." #BoycottASA

The New Yorkers I've been hearing from — in Washington Heights, Kingsbridge, Harlem and beyond — are ready for a change. Join us on June 23, because Uptown and the Bronx deserves better. #VoteDarializa

I am thrilled to have the endorsement of @mayor.nyc.gov Last year, I canvassed Uptown & the Bronx in support of candidate Mamdani's affordability agenda. Today Mayor Mamdani is endorsing our campaign to bring that affordability agenda from Washington Heights to Washington, DC. Nos fuimosssss🏎️🌬️

FWIW, I don’t think the major problem in my field, or related ones, is that people need to move faster & produce more. I read a lot of papers as part of the job, and I’m increasingly convinced we’d benefit from fewer papers and better ones, not more mediocre work produced ever more “efficiently.”

Folks are admiring Charles Barkley here & I commend him on using this platform to speak up, but I also want to encourage us all to stop using this “criminal” vs “amazing” immigrant dichotomy for which there was never any basis & allows this kind of brutality to be okay sometimes. It’s never ok.

Join us on the picket line in support of NYSNA @nynurses.bsky.social! Our nurses are there for us when we need it most. Now it’s our turn to show up for them, and support their bid for a fair contract with increased patient & nurse safety. Support their strike: www.nysna.org/news/take-ac...

This is a huge step towards the city working New Yorkers deserve, but this step will be most successful with federal funding behind it. As your Congresswoman, one of my top priorities would be fighting for the funding that our kids & working families need — and I won’t rest until it’s done.

The staggering costs of childcare have forced many NYers to make impossible decisions, like choosing between parenthood or life in NYC. One of many reasons I was so proud to support @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social was his promise of free childcare for all. I'm thrilled to see that realized today.

With Trump’s authoritarianism at our doorstep and billionaire greed in our backyard, we need someone who won't let AIPAC, real estate developers, & corporate PACs dictate how hard we fight back. Today, I'm launching my campaign for Congress in #NY13 with @justicedems support!

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

Latest in the Guardian with @nickocchiuto.bsky.social argues that the Club World Cup tournament has given Trump a platform for his authoritarianism, with full endorsement of FIFA. We must answer by boycotting the World Cup matches to be held in the US next year. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

This isn’t a picture of a canvassing event. It’s Saturday’s field lead training. Each of these organizers will now launch their own neighborhood canvasses across New York City in the days and weeks to come. That’s how big our volunteer operation is.

Dozens of organizers pose together and hold up their fists in a church.

Today I confronted “border czar” Tom Homan who came to Albany to do Trump’s bidding — push for mass deportations, carry out the assault on working class New Yorkers, and justify the unjustifiable detention of legal permanent resident and father-to-be, Mahmoud Khalil.
