Overnight, Trump and Republicans in Congress shut down the federal government. They shut it down because they’re determined to strip healthcare from millions of Americans, to enrich the billionaires they serve, to continue the assault on our rights. We must fight back.

New Yorkers are looking for leaders who will stand with them. We're the tenant majority, we need lawmakers who act for us.

Mayor Adams must resign, and if he doesn’t, Governor Hochul should remove him from office. New Yorkers need a functioning government, not chaos and cronyism.

Public defender here. Innocent until proven guilty & lover of due process - the question here isn’t whether he’s guilty of a crime & should be prosecuted. The question is whether in this moment he’s capable of governing. Admin is in shambles & he cannot. So, yes he should resign.

Today,@AOC and @SenTinaSmith introduced the #HomesAct, a bold new plan to build millions of homes for the public good -- instead of real estate industry profits. Our coalition stood with them to launch this new leg, based our own NY Social Housing Development Authority bill!

POLL: 73% of battleground voters support rent caps. The rent is too damn high. The solution to rent gouging? Rent caps. This is the only solution that meets the scale and severity of the crisis tenants endure every month. politi.co/4cnHHNj

To cap or not to cap?

Tenant advocates are pressing Kamala Harris’ campaign to include rent caps in her platform as she prepares to deliver her first economic policy speech as the presumptive Democratic nominee on Friday.
