On Tuesday, Corona, East Elmhurst, Elmhurst, Jackson Heights & LeFrak City chose honesty, collaboration & integrity. ✊🏽
Thank you to every voter, volunteer, donor, union, organization & supporter who powered this people-first movement. We knocked 50,000+ doors & we won together! – at Queens, NY
We deal w the horrors of ICE hunting down our neighbors & kidnapping them daily. We (electeds & neighbors) are out doing rapid response & know your rights canvases constantly. Grateful that @Brianr4NY was able to get to the scene quickly to document ICE’s lawlessness. ABOLISH ICE

ICE detained 2 more neighbors today at 7:50 AM in Corona. I arrived at the scene to get critical info for rapid response. They threatened to mace me as I tried to speak to the person (at a distance). They brutally maced and threw someone to the floor.
You can't reform this. ABOLISH ICE!
Every child deserves nutritious meals. 🍎
I fought to make universal free school meals a reality in NY because no child should go hungry. Shoutout to @GovKathyHochul for protecting this vital program as Trump threatens food assistance nationwide. Our kids deserve better!

Thank you @bradlander, @rabbis4HR @israelispeaceny @ucpinpalestine for your courage, support, and solidarity with the people of 🇵🇸
Wishing safety, peace and an end to the war and occupation in Gaza. ¡Basta!
I’ve been released from IDF custody with a “warning,” apparently because of my public profile (I told them I wasn’t even a congressmember yet, just a nominee).
But several dozen rabbis & participants harvesting olives with me are still in detention. For harvesting olives. They should all be released immediately.
To be clear: Palestinians face far worse consequences every day. These detentions by the IDF are one more attempt to undermine Palestinians’ right to harvest their olive groves, travel on their roads, and live in their homes. Yet one more element of escalating, and very clearly state-sponsored ethnic cleansing.
We’ll update on their status as soon as we hear.
Honored to be endorsed by my incredible and fierce Congresswoman, @AOC!
Important reminder that early voting starts on Saturday & election day is Tuesday, Nov 3rd.

This is garbage journalism at its worst & @nypost should be ashamed.😤 @SenatorBrouk was on parental leave & @bmaher23ny was serving his country in the National Guard.
Elected officials also deserve time off to care for themselves & their child, or honorably serve their country

Deliveristas deserve safe space to work. Let’s build a truly multimodal corridor w dedicated micromobility lanes, safe loading zones & rest areas.
