They are terrified. I support the President’s efforts to secure the border and deport violent criminals—but this is going too far. Hondurans who have been living legally in the U.S. for over 25 years, working and paying taxes, are now being threatened with deportation on September 8th.

I think we can all agree that transparency is a good thing. I don’t know how anybody could be against that.

Watch my full interview on Face the Nation. Cutting Medicaid and food assistance programs for Americans most in need is unacceptable, especially when at the same time we’re cutting taxes for the wealthiest Americans and blowing up the deficit. The math just doesn’t add up. youtu.be/nGykGfJtv7g?...

June is National Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Awareness Month. Today, as we commemorate the 81st anniversary of the D-Day Invasion, let us reflect on the reality that over 7% of our veterans may develop PTSD.

Lest we forget. On June 6, 1944, 156,000 American, British, and Canadian troops launched the largest amphibious assault in history on the beaches of Normandy—a pivotal moment in World War II that helped turn the tide against tyranny.

Like so many Long Islanders, I grew up with the music of the Piano Man. I was fortunate to get to know Billy Joel over 30 years ago, when I was mayor of Glen Cove. His songs remind us why we’re proud to be in a “New York state of mind.” Wishing Billy a swift and full recovery.

There’s lots of talk about negotiations over the SALT deduction, so I made it simple. I just proposed an increase to a $80,000 SALT deduction cap. Americans don’t deserve to be taxed on the taxes they have already paid. youtu.be/eNvNL4s0rxE?...
