    Offshore drilling is a really dumb idea. Add your name to tell the Trump Administration to block offshore drilling off New York's waters.

  2. New York is launching a new pilot program aimed at reducing suicide attempts among individuals who had previously attempted suicide. Thousands of New Yorkers struggle with suicidal thoughts, and we must do all we can to support them.

  3. Recent events have raised serious concerns that ICE is violating constitutional rights and targeting people based on ethnicity. I’m calling on the Department of Homeland Security to launch an investigation into the conduct of ICE agents. ICE has strayed far from its mission.

  4. The recent report that the death toll of Hurricane Maria is 70x higher than previously reported is horrifying and must spur us to action. I join in demanding a full investigation into the appallingly inadequate federal response.

  5. My thoughts are with the loved ones of Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain. Depression doesn't discriminate. If you or someone you know is in need of help, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.

    I had one message for her: Anything we can do to help, we will do. I confirmed with her that New York State, working with our partners, has secured pro-bono legal counsel to represent Mr. Villavicencio.

    I just spoke with Sandra Chica & expressed my deep frustration with the federal government's assault on NY’s immigrant families. Sandra spoke to me as a mother—worried for her husband and her children. As a father of three, I can't imagine the fear she and Pablo are feeling now.

    Kindergarteners should be learning the alphabet and playing, not practicing lockdown drills. The fact that a whole generation is growing up this way is an indictment on our Federal Government — and the NRA-bought politicians who still refuse to act.

    Happening right now: Gov Cuomo is speaking with Sandra, wife of Pablo Villavicencio who was arrested last night delivering pizza & detained by ICE. Gov Cuomo has secured a lawyer for Pablo and had 1 message for Sandra: “Anything we can do to help, we will do.”

    Fantastic to see so many students joining our initiative to help Puerto Rico build back stronger. 8 months after Hurricane Maria, many people still live in awful conditions. This program pairs students with trade workers to construct houses across PR 💪

    New York stands ready to provide Mr. Villavicencio and his family with free legal representation and services through the Liberty Defense Project. I will fight this outrageous affront to Pablo Villavicencio and to all of us.

    Detaining pizza delivery men and separating fathers from children isn’t making America safe. An immigration policy grounded in bias and cruelty isn’t making America great.

    Arming teachers is a really dumb idea. Here’s a better idea: let's empower teachers and school administrators, as well as family and law enforcement, to petition a judge to temporarily remove firearms from individuals in crisis.
