Supportive housing saves lives. 🏠
Proud to join @thenetworkny.bsky.social in the fight for greater funding in our state budget to keep New Yorkers safely housed.
We must not allow years of underfunding & federal budget cuts to push thousands back into homelessness.
Trump and his henchmen are blocking access to healthcare, cutting protections for LGBTQ+ youth and fanning the flames of hate.
New York must fight back, bolster our investment in #TGNBWellnessFund and pass my bill guaranteeing access to gender-affirming care through Medicaid.
Good to see Michael Mulgrew, President of @uft.org in Albany today!
Looking forward to partnering to #FixTier6, fulfill the promise of universal childcare, bolster the education & health care workforce & ensure our schools have the funding necessary to succeed.
‼️Tenants make up half our state and we owe it to them to make rent affordable.
This year, we must expand access to housing vouchers by fully funding #HAVP at $250 million, passing the #RESTAct & preserving hard-fought tenant protections in our 2019 rent laws.
Every New Yorker deserves safe and affordable housing.
Proud to join @thenyic.bsky.social in demanding full funding for #HAVP, my bill providing housing vouchers to homeless NYers & those facing eviction, along with #NYforAll and #LanguageAccess.
A&E, an LLC with 4,000 housing violations, is forcing tenants on the #UWS to go without cooking gas, elevator service & regular heat during frigid temps.
No tenant should be without the essential services they pay for. Proud to rally with the Westgate Tenants Assoc. to stand up for what’s right ✊
We will not stop fighting for a fair and equitable contract for our @nynurses.bsky.social nurses — safe staffing levels, protection from workplace violence + benefits are critical.
#NY is union strong.
Intoxication is not consent.
We must pass Assemblymember Dinowitz & Senator Fernandez’s bill to finally close the voluntary intoxication gap in our law that has long allowed perpetrators of sexual assault to evade accountability.
✊Proud to stand with the nearly 15,000 @nynurses.bsky.social who began their strike today demanding safe staffing levels, health benefits & and a fair contract.
Hospitals must put #PatientsOverProfits and negotiate in good faith to reach a #FairContractNow.
With Trump gutting gun violence prevention programs & the ATFE, it's critical that we pass my bill banning the manufacture of 3D guns in #NYS.
Glad to have the support of
Gov. Hochul, @manhattanda.bsky.social, law enforcement, @momsdemand.bsky.social & other advocates in making this a reality.
As if the cruel and illegal doping of horses wasn’t enough, did you know New York State props up this dying industry with $250m in subsidies each year?
We must pass my bills to end NY’s racing subsidies and put that money back into our communities.

‼️Economic abuse is pervasive in domestic violence situations. Under my new law with Senator Cordell Cleare, survivors in New York State will finally have a way out.
No person should have their life upended over credit card bills, car loans & other debts they did not take out.
🚨Beware all women: do NOT record your period & ovulation info on your health apps.
Governor Hochul vetoed my landmark health data privacy bill with @lizkrueger.bsky.social that would have prevented tech companies from using & selling our data without consent.
@nyclu.org @newyorkstateag.bsky.social
⚠️ Manufacturers have long allowed PFAS, lead, mercury & other toxic ingredients to be used in menstrual products, endangering women’s health.
Proud that my new law with Senator Nathalia Fernandez will finally prohibit the use of these ingredients & make period products sold in NYS safer.
My bill with @bradhoylmansigal.bsky.social would have ensured timely access to HIV care for Medicaid patients.
Today’s veto by Governor Hochul enshrines a two-tiered system, resulting in the most vulnerable New Yorkers having to face delays in accessing lifesaving medications.
‼️ Effective today, my law requires an ingredient listing on all packages of diapers sold in New York State.
Harmful chemicals, dyes & fragrances have caused rashes and other health problems. Consumers deserve ingredient transparency.

Deepfakes are blurring the lines between reality and fantasy.
Thanks to Gov. Hochul for signing my first-in-the-nation bill w/ @sengianaris.bsky.social placing guardrails on deepfakes & synthetic media in ads.
👏🏼 to @sagaftra.org, @aflcio.org, @iatse.bsky.social,
@wgaeast.bsky.social + more.
My bill with @lizkrueger.bsky.social is simple: New Yorkers, not corporations, get to decide what happens to their sensitive health data.
There’s NO reason why someone’s ovulation info, blood sugar levels or step count should be sold to the highest bidder.
Gov must sign our common-sense bill.
New York is the last line of defense against the odious and shameful policies peddled by Trump and his federal puppets.
So, while Trump ignores the roar of activists across the world on
#WorldAIDSDay2025, we'll continue fighting with every fiber of our being for the #LGBTQIA+ community.
Pets must not be treated like property.
Proud that my new law with @sengianaris.bsky.social bans predatory lease agreements in online sales. These contracts have allowed pets to be cruelly repossessed from loving families simply over missed payments
Thank you Halle Berry for highlighting my package of menopause bills that I’m working to pass in #NYS. 💪
We MUST protect women experiencing menopause from discrimination and make menopausal-related health treatments more affordable.
Fired up and ready to make history.
But we can only bend it, if we continue showing up + speaking out. The families we met in court today desperately need assistance — volunteer to help the New Sanctuary Coalition:

I felt the dread of generations in my bones during a surprise visit to 26 Federal Plaza with @bradhoylmansigal.bsky.social + @micahlasher.bsky.social this morning.
Trump is carrying out pure evil. And while the arc of the moral universe is long, we must forcefully bend it toward justice.
‼️Proud to stand with @nynurses.bsky.social as they demand a #FairContractNow.
Nurses are the backbone of our healthcare system, but reductions to frontline staff combined with upcoming federal cuts will harm workers and patients alike.
#NursesCareforNY and we must care for them.
Congratulations to our next mayor: @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social 🎉
These results are an electrifying endorsement for a more affordable #NYC and a repudiation of Trump’s cruelty.
Now let’s go build housing, help tenants, save vouchers + fight back against Trump like our lives depend on it.
Michael McKee was the juggernaut of the housing movement and his legacy will forever live on in the legions of activists he’s inspired.
His encyclopedic knowledge was legendary. His belief in justice defined him.
Proud to have been his friend. I’ll miss him dearly.
The Assembly Committee on Housing is hosting a public hearing today to examine rent stabilization outside of New York City and gather feedback from local governments & other stakeholders.

While Trump is telling you to buy fewer dolls for your kids this holiday season, he’s buying deportation Barbie two new private jets during a government shutdown.
📢: #MAGA doesn’t give a crap if your health insurance premiums double.

There is a well-documented link between animal cruelty & violence against humans.
Proud that my new law with Senator Hinchey will protect pets & people alike by requiring courts to consider animal cruelty crimes when issuing an ERPO to temporarily restrict access to firearms.
Algorithms designed to artificially drive up rents have created new opportunities for collusion & price fixing.
Proud that my new law will end this anti-competitive practice and help to level the playing field for tenants across the state.
