Energy Costs are Rising. Trump and Big Tech Are to Blame On the campaign trail, President Donald Trump promised to cut energy costs in half. Now, energy costs are skyrocketing.

Energy bills are rising nationwide, and Trump and the GOP are to blame. They rolled back clean energy incentives and greenlit an AI surge, pushing costs onto working families and deepening economic & environmental inequality. I break it down in TIME today: time.com/7312151/ener...

Honored to have DC9 painters out canvassing for our campaign. These workers build this city—and they’re backing a vision where working people come first ✊🏽🌞

The energy was electric today as I voted for myself: cultural worker & organizer who’s spent over a decade delivering for the people who make our city home.

Democracy’s on fire, billionaires are trying to buy elections & I’m proud stand up to it & run a grassroots campaign 💜🙏🏽

💜

As a first-time candidate, I’m deeply honored to earn the endorsement of DC9—a major union of workers who build this city and fight for dignity every day. I know what it means to work hard for a dream. I’m ready to carry that fight all the way—for working families across Manhattan.

I’m the daughter of immigrants and a cultural leader who’s seen our neighborhoods change too fast for working families to keep up. I’m running to end corruption, protect what makes this city home, and fight like hell to lower costs.

Our digital ad is now streaming across Council District 2!

I’m proud to be backed by a growing coalition of community leaders across District 2—organizers, artists, small business owners, tenant advocates, and everyday neighbors who know what’s at stake and who’s ready to fight for us.

Let’s bring it home. 🗳️

Does That Building Have Stabilized Apartments? It'll Soon Be Easier to Know - City Limits "Many tenants living in rent stabilized units don't know how to determine their legal rent, and in turn, bad landlords have gotten away with illegal rent overcharges and have illegally deregulated uni...

The law will require owners of buildings with regulated units to display a sign in common areas disclosing that status. This will make it easier for tenants to know if they're being illegally overcharged, said sponsor @cmsandynurse.bsky.social. bit.ly/3SAO8p4

I’m proud to have the support of @local338.bsky.social

From grocery workers to pharmacy techs to cannabis and healthcare workers, Local 338 members are on the frontlines every day — and they deserve a City Council that will fight for fair wages, safe conditions, and dignity on the job.

In a dramatic incident captured on video, U.S. Department of Homeland Security police Wednesday handcuffed one of Rep. Jerry Nadler aides in the congressmember's Manhattan office, which is in the same federal office building as an immigration courthouse. In the video, which was shared with Gothamist and filmed by a person who was monitoring activity in immigration court, DHS officers entered Nadler’s district office and accused staff members of “harboring rioters.” A Nadler staffer is seen crying and being handcuffed. Another officer is at a door trying to enter a private area of the office while a staffer asks for a warrant. DHS later said in a statement that “one individual” — the woman seen being handcuffed — had blocked police from performing a security check they intended to do based on information there were protesters in the lawmaker’s office. Later that day, protesters gathered outside of the federal building, demonstrating against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Department of Homeland Security officers invading a congressman's offices and arresting a staffer who tried to stop them is very, very bad. gothamist.com/news/homelan...

Artists inspire us to dream big, and they move us through the darkness. But New York’s working artists cannot afford to live here & I’m running for City Council to change that.

Mount Sinai has promised us an urgent care center at NYEEI across the street, and we have continued to demand that an emergency room is the only acceptable alternative to save lives in our community. We will continue to make that demand.

As the daughter of Peruvian immigrants and a proud Latina, I’m honored to be the first 2025 City Council candidate endorsed by @latinovictoryus.bsky.social I’m ready to carry the legacy of fierce leadership—and fight for a NYC where every working New Yorker can live, thrive, and belong.

Today, I joined 100k other New Yorkers to send a clear message to Elon Musk, Donald Trump & the Republicans enabling them: hands off of our government, our livelihoods & our neighborhoods.

We showed up because we refuse to let billionaires take control of our democracy. @nywfp.bsky.social
