Today I presented a check for $100K, which represents a portion of the funds we were able to provide to support

I stand with the people of NY. We must listen & deliver the support they need & deserve in the face of economic downturn & escalating housing unaffordability. As the sponsor of the progressive tax bill, I'm ready to do my part & work with my colleagues to #InvestInOurNY!

Today I joined @AQE_NY to celebrate the State's promise to students with the full phase-in of Foundation Aid. A fight that began in 1993 when I launched the Campaign for Fiscal Equity. WE DID IT! Looking ahead to a brighter future for all New York students.

Everyone should have a chance to work, care for their families, & contribute to their communities. #CleanSlateAct is a policy that would remove barriers to employment, education, & housing, promoting justice & stability for all. We need to pass this now- let's make it happen!

#MLKDay is about more than just recognizing the life & legacy of Dr. King. It is about committing ourselves to actively fighting for economic justice, racial justice, & social justice. Let us rally together to create a reality that reflects his dream & carries on his legacy. ✊🏾

Transit is a basic necessity for New Yorkers. Raising the fare to $3 for this most basic public goodwill only deny working-class NYers access to our city. Gov. Hochul, reject the fare hike & include #FixTheMTA in your budget.

With my Senate colleagues today in Albany presenting our voting rights legislation — including my bill S.350, which protects our democracy by preventing manipulation of the legal system when frivolous lawsuits are filed. This is a crucial step towards strengthening our democracy.

The decision to confirm the top jurist in the state will have far-reaching consequences.⁣ The values of NY are not reflected in Justice LaSalle's decisions. As state senators, we must ensure the appointment of a chief judge who all NYers can trust & stand behind.⁣ #NOLaSalle

Today I took the oath to serve my 3rd term as a NY State Senator. It’s an honor to represent the people of the 31st District, which now includes parts of the Bronx. I’m excited to continue the work to address the issues that we face in our district. #ActionJackson #District31
