DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

DoorDash Spent $1.4 Million Trying to Stop Mamdani From Becoming Mayor. Now We Know Why.

In a wage-theft settlement, DoorDash now has to pay its workers around 100 times what it spent trying to beat Zohran Mam

This November, vote for Kathy Hochul on the @nywfp ballot line. It counts the same as a vote on the Democratic line, but sends a powerful message to leadership in New York that we want a government that sides with workers, not corporations.

The WNBA Player’s Association issued an excellent (imo) statement yesterday, stressing the league’s values and stating that they won’t be used as political pawns. The league and its individual teams might want to reach out to whoever is doing comms for the WNBPA. Just sayin.

WNBPA
A MESSAGE FROM
WNBPA PLAYER LEADERSHIP
To everyone who loves this game: The WNBPA represents 200+ individual people with different lived experiences, cultures, lifestyles, and opinions.
We embrace justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion.
Those are the values that unite this Union and allow it to protect women's sports while creating transformational change.
Hate, abuse, and demonization of any person or group of people, including transgender people, only fuel fear, division, and harm. We will continue to have hard conversations. But we will not be used as political pawns.
Support the Players. Support the Fans. At games, notify security if you witness hateful, violent, or abusive behavior. Online, report abusive posts and drown out the bots and bad actors. At home, tell your elected officials to strengthen Title IX.

WHOA DHS does not say that the agent feared for his life… just the vague concern for “public safety.” So he killed him just because he did not want him in America, not because of any specific threat to agents?

In New York, nearly two in three voters across the state favor Zohran Mamdani's promise to provide universal government-funded child care and would support the mayor-elect's plan to pay for it by increasing taxes on those earning more than $1 million a year, a new poll found.

Welp, @governor.ny.gov is on board with Trump & Congressional Republicans' efforts to make NY sicker. @axios.com reported this morning that Hochul is scrapping expanded healthcare b/c of the Federal Budget Scam. www.axios.com/2025/09/10/n... Our response (spoiler, she should #TaxTheRich instead)👇

Earlier this morning, Axios reported that Gov. Hochul plans to axe New Yorkers’ healthcare as a result of July’s Federal Budget Scam. Below is a response from Erica Vladimer, Communications Coordinator for the Invest In Our New York Campaign:

“New York’s Congressional Republican delegation happily voted to make New Yorkers sicker by cutting billions from our healthcare, forcing state leaders to step in and deal with the aftermath. Unfortunately, Governor Hochul’s claim to stand up for New York’s families falls short as she chooses to axe their healthcare. Instead, Governor Hochul can raise the necessary public dollars to protect healthcare access by raising taxes on New York’s millionaires and billionaires. Anything less is just going along with Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans.”

Lt. Gov Delgado is 🎯spot on🎯. NYS leaders can support the people they represent (and show the rest of the nation how it's done!) We can reduce the impact of the Federal Budget Scam RIGHT NOW during a special session where lawmakers #TaxTheRich, and pass #NY4All & #DignityNotDetention Acts.

After months of hand-wringing and finger-pointing, Democrats are still learning how to navigate a political landscape dominated by Donald Trump’s Republican Party. With Democrats locked out of power in Washington, the burden has shifted to the state and local levels to prove that we can govern.

If you listen to Gov. Kathy Hochul, you’d think there’s nothing New York can do to fight back. Consider her response to Republicans slashing Medicaid and SNAP: “No state can backfill the massive cuts.” It’s simply not true that New York can’t afford to protect our most vulnerable citizens.

The same dynamic is playing out on immigration. Ms. Hochul bemoans the fact that “renegade counties” throughout New York are cooperating with ICE on immigration enforcement — all the while pretending that there’s no mechanism to stop it. Right now, ICE is deputizing police officers across our state to carry out immigration raids. The New York for All Act would end this practice, but the governor won’t commit to supporting it.

In New York, the legislature is not currently in its regular annual session. But the governor has the constitutional authority to call a special session and work with Democrats to pass legislation that makes up for draconian budget cuts and protects our immigrant communities. That should happen now.

Our state, if an independent country, would be the ninth-largest economy in the world. We also have the largest wealth inequality gap of any state. The money is there, but the political will is missing. There are serious policy options out there, but Ms. Hochul has ruled out raising taxes on the ultrawealthy and big corporations. The Invest in Our New York campaign includes a series of revenue proposals that could raise tens of billions of dollars annually. Democratic leaders should be putting ideas like these on the table, including an overhaul of the over $10 billion we give away annually through so-called economic development incentives to select businesses with no real return on investment.
