John Lewis looks large as one of our nation's greatest champions of civil rights. He fearlessly used his voice to challenge discrimination and prejudice. On what would have been his 85th birthday, let’s honor his legacy and continue fighting against hate and injustice.

Today, NYS Comptroller, Thomas DiNapoli, and I worked to bring an Unclaimed Funds and Resource event to the residents of NYCHA Wyckoff and Gowanus Houses. Unclaimed funds are surprisingly common, and I will continue to help my constituents access all resources potentially available to them.

The vile display of Islamophobia at Masjid Nur-Al Islam in BK, from a coward hiding behind a MAGA hat and a facemask, is disgusting and has no place in NYC or anywhere. Everyone deserves to practice their faith without fear and intimidation. We must stand together, and reject hate of any kind.

It was wonderful celebrating the Lunar New Year with @newyorkstateag.bsky.social and NYS Comptroller, Thomas DiNapoli. It is always an honor to represent such a historic AAPI community in #NY10.

US airlines carry over 800M passengers annually. Elon Musk and Trump are purging the FAA as crashes rise under their watch. The federal gov’t isn’t a social media platform– Americans’ safety and livelihoods depend on it. When will Congressional R's stand up for American people?

The number of 9/11 first responders who’ve died from illness now exceeds the number of victims who died that day. Yet, Trump and Elon Musk cancelled vital research into cancers affecting first responders. Doge isn’t cutting waste, just programs Trump/Musk don’t care about.

While Rs watch an unelected billionaire take a hatchet to the federal government, Democrats are fighting for the people who will suffer. We're safeguarding the rule of law, protecting immigrants, and battling the funding freeze to ensure Americans get the support they depend on.

Less than 24 hours after taking office, the Trump admin dismantled the Office of Gun Violence Prevention. Protecting Americans' safety should never be a partisan issue. I’m proud to join @frost.house.gov in introducing legislation to restore this life-saving agency.

I joined New York Disaster Interfaith Services (NYDIS) for a tour of their new Clubhouse facility, which supports people with severe mental health issues. It was great to see how groups like NYDIS make care more accessible in NYC, and I'll keep working to ensure they get the resources they need.

Expanding mental health care access is critical for NYC community safety. I joined Governor Hochul and NY Presbyterian Hospital to discuss heath care approaches at the State and Federal level, including my Michelle Go Act, which would expand long-term care for people with severe mental illness.

Public safety officers killed or injured because of their service should never be denied benefits. I introduced a bipartisan bill with Rep. Andy Barr to ensure families of officers who make the ultimate sacrifice aren’t denied support due to arbitrary retirement restrictions.

After cutting future funding for the WTCHP, Trump and Elon Musk are again abandoning 9/11 survivors and first responders who sacrificed their health rebuilding NYC. This isn't cutting waste–it's disgracefully abandoning those who gave everything. NY House Rs must stand up.

The NIH is slashing $850M in funding for lifesaving medical research in New York. This is unacceptable. I led a bipartisan, bicameral letter with my NY colleagues to NIH acting director Matthew Memoli demanding an immediate reversal of this decision.

Today, the Senate will move the nomination of Kash Patel for FBI Director. While President Trump lets Elon Musk run wild grifting and slashing the federal government, Trump has been mainly focused on his revenge and retribution tour. Patel is the one he cares most about. Here’s why 🧵

You have no idea what those algorithms target. You have no idea what Elon Musk has determined to be fraud. Congress has the power of the purse, not an unelected billionaire holding the President hostage. You happily hand over your power to Elon because your party is incapable of doing your job.

This week, I stood up against Trump and his billionaire allies by backing legislation to protect #NY10 immigrant communities, urged the DOJ to investigate blatant ethics violations, and hosted a town hall to hear how my constituents are impacted by Trump’s EOs.

Rs pretend to care about cybersecurity while Trump ransacks our data and nominates a loyalist hatchet man to head FBI counterintelligence. Fighting for democracy means fighting the politicization of law enforcement. Senators must reject this unqualified, dangerous nominee.

I joined @repespaillat.bsky.social in introducing the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act to stop ICE raids in schools, hospitals, and other essential places. No one should fear ICE while seeking education or care. I’ll keep fighting to protect immigrant communities from this intimidation.

At Congress’s direction, FEMA reimbursed NYC for $80m of the billions spent on immigrants bused here from red states. As revenge, Trump is taking that money back. This is purely partisan retaliation —Trump is leveraging taxpayer money to punish those who stand up to him.

Trump's agenda is clear: illegally usurp power, install loyalists, exact revenge, and cater to billionaires at the American people's expense. From legislation to lawsuits, mobilizing to messaging and governors to mayors, Democrats are standing up to his authoritarian power grab.

Chairman Jim Jordan says the press—not Congress—is the "guardrail" on Elon Musk’s government takeover. Nobody, including Trump, has any idea what Musk is doing. Yet the GOP majority is happy to take Musk’s word for it….even though Musk doesn’t even take his own word for it.

The ethics violations at DOJ are mind-blowing. DC's USA attended J6, represented a J6 rioter, then dismissed his case. The Deputy AG is Trump's former lawyer. He's purging the same officials who prosecuted him. I demanded the DOJ IG investigate these conflicts of interest.

116 years ago, the NAACP was created, a pivotal moment in the fight for civil rights, justice, and racial equality. Their vital work continues to inspire progress and is needed now more than ever. I look forward to continuing to work with them to combat hate of all kinds.

I joined Homeland Security Committee Democrats in condemning DOGE's unprecedented, unauthorized access to sensitive government data. This lawlessness threatens national security. We must enforce data privacy laws to keep Americans’ information secure. Right now, they're not being followed.

32 years ago, President Clinton signed the Family & Medical Leave Act, securing protected leave for family or medical reasons. As Trump weakens labor protections, the FMLA safeguards workers balancing work and family. We must expand coverage so Americans can care for their loved ones.
