Shame on NYU Langone for bending the knee to the Trump administration and closing the Transgender Youth Health Program 🏳️⚧️✊🏽
Soccer belongs to everyone. But often, the institutions and elites behind the sport build walls where there should be open fields. We want to welcome the world — but not at the expense of our people and planet.

Thank you @speakermenin.bsky.social!
As Chair, I will dedicate myself to one principle: if it saves lives, it’s worth doing.
A public servant was detained by ICE. Masked police kidnapping a City Council employee who works every day for New Yorkers doesn’t make us safe. Trump’s deportation agenda was never about safety. It’s about scapegoating immigrants for problems caused by billionaires. Free our neighbors. Abolish ICE.
Solidarity with @nynurses.bsky.social on strike ✊🏽
Props to @ny4childcare.bsky.social and every parent, advocate, caregiver, public servant and teacher who worked so hard to get us to this point — and to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and Governor Hochul for the will to make it a reality.
Ameen.
Abolish ICE.
ICE shot and killed a woman.
Now they follow their fascist playbook: lying and gaslighting to cover up their actions and villainize the victim. If you can stomach it, the video contradicts DHS’s fiction.
ABOLISH ICE. They kill and kidnap our neighbors. They endanger us all.
It was the honor of a lifetime to take the Oath of Office for my final term in the New York City Council. LFG.

Trump and his cronies want a new Iraq war. They want regional disaster.
Americans demand peace and democracy.
Trump launched an illegal, unconstitutional, unprovoked act of war against Venezuela.
This attack was for oil and power. To distract from the Epstein files and the Trump Administration's assault on democracy. And it violated international law.
Petty and pathetic. We will overturn these vetoes. Good riddance.

✅ Local Law 88, sponsored by Tiffany Cabán
This law requires NYC DSS to send confirmation within 48 hours of a SNAP or cash assistance application and provide document receipts within 5 days, giving applicants clarity, transparency, and access to their records.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS! ❄️ This awkward holiday card is to let you know: My office is closed for winter recess! We reopen on Monday, January 5. Please leave us a message at 718-274-4500 or email us at district22@council.nyc.gov in the meantime. We’ll respond when we return in the New Year!❄️
WE DID IT. We passed the most significant update of NY’s sanctuary city laws in nearly a decade, and the first major piece of immigration legislation to be passed by the Council during the second Trump administration! Because we keep us safe. @nyclu.org @thenyic.bsky.social @legalaidnyc.bsky.social
3/3 The cause of the fire remains under investigation by FDNY Fire Marshals. My office will continue to provide updates to the community as we receive them.
And for all of our neighbors, please find fire safety resources at: www.nyc.gov/site/fdny/ed...
2/3 Thank you to all of the FDNY firefighters, EMTs, first responders, and city agencies who responded swiftly to this tragedy. 2/3
1/3 One of our neighbors tragically lost their life today in a fire at 33-34 Crescent Street. On behalf of our entire community, I am sending my deepest sympathies to their family and loved ones. Our thoughts are with all those affected by this devastating loss.
FYI: If it passes tomorrow, the Safer Sanctuary Act would be the most significant update of New York’s sanctuary city laws in nearly a decade, and the first major piece of immigration legislation to be passed by the Council during the second Trump administration.
I know that’s right.
