Anyway, Dolan and his cronies are welcome to burn more money opposing me if 87K doesn’t feel like enough.✌️

We must pass my bill, Intro. 217, to #BanTheScan before biometric surveillance becomes irreversibly entrenched in our lives.

MSG has spent thousands against me for saying this, but I won’t back down. Commercial facial recognition is creepy and dangerous. It needs to be banned.

I’m proud that Democrats across the country are holding firm against the GOP’s shameful attacks on our healthcare. When we fight, we win!

I was honored to have been invited by Jewish constituents to join a Yizkor ceremony yesterday in Brooklyn. I was deeply moved by the rituals that reminded us: every life, a universe

The antisemitic attack in Manchester at a synagogue on Yom Kippur is a horrific assault on our shared humanity. Jewish communities must be able to worship without fear of violence. My prayers are with the victims, their families, and all who are mourning this devastating tragedy.

We also need to pass @shahanafrombk.bsky.social's New York City Trust Act, which would allow individuals to sue if city agencies violate their rights as immigrants.

Cuomo, Staunch Supporter of Israel, Says ‘Horrific’ Gaza War Must End

Do you want your politics principled or poll-tested? Our options are clear.

Zohran spoke out against Netanyahu when it was unpopular, but the right thing to do. Cuomo was literally Bibi’s personal lawyer. I’m glad the political tides are shifting, but this is cynical at best.

Police Oversight Agency Cites Excessive Force in Killing of Queens Teen The Civilian Complaint Review Board has found Officers Salvatore Alongi and Matthew Cianfrocco committed misconduct when they shot Win Rozario inside his home during a mental health crisis.

Win Rozario should still be here with us today. Nothing we do can bring him back, but this is an important step towards accountability. www.thecity.nyc/2025/09/12/c...

Adams’s trolling is low key hilarious, but the Trump-Cuomo scheming is serious business. NYC can’t afford another compromised Mayor. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social all the way!

New York must say NO to the Williams NESE pipeline that would deepen our reliance on fossil fuels and raise our utility costs even higher!

Airbnb’s Billionaire Co-Founder Explains Why He Ditched Dems And Went Full MAGA “I remember just being like, ‘Holy cow, this is crazy,’” said Joe Gebbia.

Shameful stuff from Airbnb. Immigrants are welcome in NYC. Hate is not!

Solidarity with the @uaw.org 9A workers fighting for just contracts! These public service attorneys, social workers, and staff perform essential functions in our communities. They deserve fair pay and working conditions.

We’re in a climate crisis. Building more pipelines means more pollution, higher bills, and locking in fossil fuels. I’m proud to join the call opposing these two potential projects. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Wildfire smoke and heat wave hammer NYC air quality A double whammy of wildfire smoke blowing into the city and an incoming heat wave has made the city's air dangerous for sensitive groups, according to the National Weather Service.

Wildfire smoke made headlines last week, but poor air quality isn’t new for many NYC neighborhoods. We need local solutions: cut traffic, stop idling, and reduce building emissions.

So proud of @shahanafrombk.bsky.social and the voters of the 39th district for showing that caring for your neighbors and real results are more powerful than big money and hate

Thank you!

I have never volunteered for an election campaign in my life before this and 1) Shahana's campaign team was so great 2) I met some really great people in my district through volunteering 3) she won! I'm so glad!

I’m eager to share more—this re-election was incredibly challenging for many reasons, and living with lupus was one of them.

In disability/chronic illness election news, Shahana Hanif, who has lupus, will likely continue representing her district in city council after becoming the Democratic nominee again.

These photos are incredible—thank you for capturing these moments so beautifully and in real time!

Shahana Hanif raises a hand to her mouth as she gasps in astonishment. She's in a bar, looking up at an off-panel screen. Cuomo just conceded. It's glorious.

I just got back from the @shahanafrombk.bsky.social victory party in Brooklyn! And it was awesome!

Here's Hanif at the moment she found out Cuomo conceded!

@shahanafrombk.bsky.social and @bradlander.bsky.social thanking JFREJ members for all their work in helping their campaigns 👏

Thank you for fighting to make NYC a more caring, affordable, and accessible home for all New Yorkers!

JFREJ membership assembly, people sitting in chairs with signs that say “CARE NOT CORRUPTION”

Packed house (and Zoom) for JFREJ’s summer assembly where hundreds of members are celebrating our electoral successes!

JFREJ members knocked 4,000 doors, made 37,000 calls, and volunteered for hundreds of shifts for @bradlander.bsky.social @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and @shahanafrombk.bsky.social.

Shahana Hanif on Her and Mamdani's Wins | The Brian Lehrer Show | WNYC NYC Councilmember Shahana Hanif talks about her win in a high-profile primary race, the coalition that voted for Mamdani, plus the policies she thinks resonated with voters.

.@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and I faced corporate spending and shameless fear tactics.

Our winning playbook?

Positive visions of a more affordable city. Coalitions that encapsulate the diversity of NYC. Field and comms programs that are creative, direct, and fun!

Thank you, Brooklyn! Getting to represent the neighborhoods that raised me is the greatest privilege of my life.

Final hour—let’s bring it home! 🫡
