New York Attorney General Letitia James

Trump administration hands over Medicaid recipients' personal data, including addresses, to ICE U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials will gain access to personally identifiable information for all of the nation’s 79 million Medicaid enrollees.

Using private health care information to target immigrants is unacceptable and dangerous.

No one should have to put their families and their safety at risk just to see a doctor.

Secretary Kennedy and HHS are trying to push through a new rule that would slash access to affordable health care coverage for millions and drive up medical costs nationwide.

John Lewis dedicated his life to creating an America where everyone is equal. In his honor, and in memory of Eric Garner, we must continue our fight for true justice and equality for everyone in this nation.

More than 20 states sue Trump administration over frozen after-school and summer funding More than 20 states have sued President Donald Trump’s administration over billions of dollars in frozen funding for after-school care, summer programs and more.

The federal government's illegal freezing of these funds will cause countless students and families in New York and across our country to lose access to programs and resources they need.
 
I'm fighting back.

I will fight to stop this administration from playing politics and putting people in danger.

Medicaid cuts will pummel NY jobs and health care. The Bronx could take the biggest hit. More than 100,000 could lose insurance coverage and more than 3,000 could lose jobs.

In the Bronx alone, over 100,000 New Yorkers are expected to lose heath coverage. 
  
Thousands of jobs at hospitals and local businesses are expected to be lost.

These are the devastating consequences of this administration's "Big Beautiful Bill."

This is a cruel, inhumane attack on immigrant communities that will harm children and our families.
 
We will fight back.

It's Black Women's Equal Pay Day, and it should not take until July for a Black woman to earn what a white, non-Hispanic man earned last year.
 
Black women, and all women, deserve equal pay for equal work.
 
I'll keep fighting until we don't need to recognize equal pay days.

Tens of thousands of Honduran and Nicaraguan individuals have depended on protected status to live in our nation, contribute to society, and avoid danger in their countries.
 
This is another cruel attack on our immigrant communities, and I will fight back.
