We have a market-based system and we need to be a #publichealth based system. We don’t need to pay off corporate polluters. #EJTownHall2018 #APHA2018

This should really be the easiest decision she has to make since stepping into this office. All of the evidence has been handled to her on a silver platter. No one can deny the Mayor is corrupt and completely beholden to Trump.

Governor Holchul is gaslighting New Yorkers. She has absolutely delayed the cap and invest program multiple times.
Hochul administration officials have told lawmakers today there's no delay of cap and invest rules. That defies previous public statements by state officials who promised regulations... by summer last year... by the end of the year last year... subscriber.politicopro.com/a…

Well look at that, it’s the pot calling the kettle… red.
NEW: @JeniferRajkumar tells me she is switching from comptroller race to public advocate race, challenging @JumaaneWilliams saying “The current Public Advocate, Jumaane Williams, has failed in this role.” “His focus on publicity stunts,” she says. More to come. @PIX11News

Anyways, Jumaane Williams is actually good! No stunts, and truly using his role in the interest of the public and calling out a corrupt mayor instead of standing beside him in every photo op possible while ignoring her district.

This would be pretty normal in the NYC subway, lol. Go birds!
Things are very normal in Philly rn

I wonder which billionaires will win.
#ACTUALNEWS Michael Bloomberg and U.S. philanthropists will cover the U.S.'s financial obligations to the UN climate framework after Trump’s second call to withdraw from the Paris Agreement. Bloomberg Philanthropies will ensure the U.S. meets emissions reporting despite Trump's climate retreat.

No big deal - just got a brush fire warning for NYC because it hasn’t rained in almost 40 days, it’s unusually warm, and a little windy today. In related news, Governor Kathy Holchul has not “unpaused” congestion pricing yet, one of the state’s most important climate policies.

Meanwhile in NY, Kathy Holchul “paused congestion pricing” effectively defunding the biggest citywide mass transit system in the country.

I already voted so now I’m just praying for 4 years of this vibe. Let’s go!

Easily the scariest thing about Halloween this year is that it was almost 80°F in NYC. I remember trick-or-treating with a coat on. Today, the candy was melting.

Oh. Seems like the state legislature passed a plan to help fund the MTA and address this…but then Kathy Holchul happened.
MTA is far more broke than previously expected, state comptroller says buff.ly/3NCo4Y3

Easy enough when he actually a nice guy!
Andy Kim's gentle check up on Curtis Bashaw when he froze up at last night's debate only reinforces the nice guy image he became famous for when he was photographed cleaning up the Capitol after Jan. 6. politico.com/newsletters/new…

Hmm… should maybe do the opposite of whatever she says.
"Hillary Clinton is advising Kamala Harris on how to beat Donald Trump"

This is quality public health messaging.

Nothing says forever like his and hers indictments.

Another reason to love EVs - they create more jobs in the auto industry. It seems the fossil fuel industry and pro-oil auto companies were just fearmongering for profit. Who would have thought?
