Brooklyn Democrats deserve a county organization that respects its members and operates with fairness and transparency. Altering the rules and/or who gets a say just before a leadership election raises very serious concerns about the integrity of the process. nysfocus.com/2026/08/20/b...

Black voters built this democracy through generations of struggle, sacrifice, and courage. We will not allow extremists to dilute Black political power or rig our democracy because they fear our voices. We’re fighting back in the courts, in Congress, and in our communities.

Donald Trump has unleashed terror in communities across this country. From gutting healthcare to targeting communities of color and escalating ICE raids, this administration has made clear it does not care about working people. We must always stand with everyday people.

The Supreme Court’s devastating decision in Louisiana v. Callais pulls America backward. Not since Jim Crow have Black voters faced this level of disenfranchisement. We must take every step necessary to protect voters and push back against this extremist decision.

New York’s history was shaped by trans leaders like Marsha P. Johnson and so many others who fought for freedom long before it was safe. On Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honor the lives stolen by hate and stand firm in protecting the rights, safety, and dignity of every trans person. #TDOR

The Republican agenda: Make America Hungry Again. A $186 BILLION cut from SNAP. Lapse in benefits for over 40 MILLION Americans. Only partially funding the SNAP program. It’s just plain wrong.

Early this morning, our city still plunged into darkness, I set off to walk the Brooklyn Bridge. As the sun came up, we were joined by canvassers, labor leaders, elected officials, and working people — a movement to bring a new day to our city. Tomorrow, we win it together.
Zohran, Tish James and Brad Lander lead a procession of hundreds walking across the Brooklyn Bridge at dawn. Tish James, Brad Lander, Tony Simone and Rita Joseph wait for the march on the bridge.

Mifepristone has been safely used for 20+ years to help people manage abortions and miscarriages. So why are Republicans STILL coming for it? It was never about “health,” it’s about control. I’ll never stop fighting for bodily autonomy and women’s rights.

Trump and Hegseth want to turn our cities into “training grounds”? Let’s be clear: our neighborhoods are not a backdrop for your authoritarian cosplay. We’re communities, not props. Keep your army out of our streets.

This is what Trump and Republicans do. They don’t get their way so instead of turning to good governance, they put critical projects and thousands of jobs at risk. Our communities deserve investment, not political retribution.

It’s been three years since I introduced the Deepfakes Accountability Act—yet Congress still hasn’t taken meaningful action. As deepfake technology continues to pose serious threats to our democracy and national security, the time for accountability is now. We need safeguards for the American people
