A city where masked agents can take our neighbors off the street is a city in crisis. I attended an ICE preparedness training at St. Michael’s because New Yorkers protect each other. In Albany, I’ll fight to pass the NY For All Act and the MELT Act.

New Yorkers gather for an ICE Preparedness Town Hall at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church.

The best part of petitioning? Neighbors stopping us on the street to sign and ask how they can help. The momentum is building. Join us for a shift and help get on the ballot: www.mobilize.us/stephanierus...

Great to celebrate Purim at The Jewish Center and The Jewish Theological Seminary - JTS. The story of Esther is about courage and standing up for your community. That lesson feels especially meaningful right now. Chag Purim Sameach to everyone celebrating.✨

Relieved Columbia student Ellie Aghayeva is safe. But this is outrageous. No one should be able to access a dorm by impersonating law enforcement. Colleges must fix this now, and ICE must be held accountable. No ICE on campus. ICE out of New York. Protect our students.

I’m proud to have Ruth Messinger’s endorsement. My first job was working for her at AJWS, and she’s been a mentor ever since. She broke barriers in NYC politics and inspired so many of us to lead and fight for justice.

@nyccomptroller.bsky.social Mark Levine knows our neighborhoods. From his time as a Councilmember for MSH and the UWS fighting for tenant protections to delivering on housing as Borough President, he’s modeled the type of leadership I aspire to continue.

On the Upper West Side and in Morningside Heights, we show up for each other. Join us Feb 22, 5 to 7 pm for our Petitioning Party. To get Stephanie on the ballot, we need signatures from neighbors across the district. That’s grassroots democracy in action. Sign up here: bit.ly/Petition4Ste...

Trans youth deserve to know they are seen, valued, and protected. Their healthcare should never be a political bargaining chip. We stand with trans youth and their families.

In this campaign, I’ve met some incredible people. But there are few figures in NY's history like Bob Abrams. As a former Assemblymember, Bronx BP, and NY Attorney General, he truly embodies what it means to be a public servant. We’re so fortunate to have him on Team Stephanie!

In 2017, I brought my young twin boys, with teddy bear and protest signs, to stand against the Muslim ban. Raising sons now means teaching them to stand up for their neighbors. I’m running for Assembly in the 69th because every family deserves dignity, safety, and to belong here.

Excited to announce the endorsement of Assemblymember @nilyrozic.bsky.social! We’ll stand up for working families and fight for social justice together in Albany.

Honored to be endorsed by Assemblymember Deborah Glick, a true trailblazer in Albany.

I grew up here and now I’m raising my family here, but our rent just went up again. So many families are wondering how long they can afford to stay. I’m running for Assembly to fight for affordable housing and stronger tenant protections so families aren’t pushed out. Join us.

Two-thirds of the 15,000 striking nurses reached a tentative agreement that could end the strike, and it took far too long. Nurses fought for safe staffing, nurse safety, and a fair contract. The strike continues at NewYork-Presbyterian. I stand with nurses and all working people. #StandWithNurses

Journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort were arrested by federal agents, reportedly under direction from Attorney General Pam Bondi. Detaining the press while the murderers of U.S. citizens face no accountability are alarming abuses of power. An attack on the press is an attack on democracy.

Alex Jeffrey Pretti was an ICU nurse who spent his life caring for others. He was murdered by ICE while trying to help a woman agents had pushed to the ground. This is a tragedy. We need change now: pass #NY4All and abolish ICE.

Last night I saw democracy in action. The Center School shaped my family—my husband, my son, my niece, and my nephew. As relocation plans move forward, students, parents, and teachers asked for time and real partnership. I’m committed to fighting to make sure they’re heard.

Walking through Columbia with my kids used to be a meaningful part of our routine. Now we pass locked gates and heavy security, and our neighborhood feels more divided. Neighbors trying to reach medical care and families just trying to get home deserve better. Open the gates.

On MLK Day, I stood with Westgate tenants and elected officials to call out A&E Realty for years of neglect. Housing justice is a civil right. No one should live without heat, safety, or dignity in their own home.

We ask nurses to show up for us at our most vulnerable. Now it’s our turn to show up for them. Stand with nurses. Demand dignity, fairness, and a contract they deserve.

Over 200 people gathered at Columbus Circle for an interfaith vigil honoring Renee Nicole Good and the at least 36 lives lost because of ICE since January 1, 2025. This violence is not public safety. It is state violence. ICE out of New York. Pass #NY4All. 📸: Michael Brochstein

A story that needs to not be overlooked. In a moment with an abundance of suffering. Please read this piece and be vigilant about noticing and interrupting antisemitism just as we attempt to notice and interrupt every other type of violence, hatred and injustice. forward.com/opinion/7962...

An arsonist torched a Mississippi synagogue. It feels hauntingly familiar.

A rabbi who served The Temple in Atlanta, bombed in 1958, reflects on arson at a Jackson, Miss. synagogue — and how history repeats itself.
