It's not the wealthy who are leaving New York City—it’s the working class. That’s why we’re going to use every single tool at our disposal to make this city one that people can actually afford. And that starts with freezing the rent.

¡Puerto Rico no se vende, ni tampoco NuevaYol!🇵🇷 So much fun to join Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at the Puerto Rican Day Parade. Early voting starts this Saturday 🗳️

I am Richard Chow, taxi driver. 2021, Zohran Kwame Mamdani supported taxi driver' protest 45 days 24/7, including 15 days hunger strike. He moved his office from Astoria to City Hall side walk. He blocked traffic with us and arrested. We WON Debt Forgiveness. He is our hero.❤️

Chicago. Daley Plaza. 12:00 noon today.... No to authoritarianism. No to fascism. No to the takeover and destruction of higher education. No to racist deportations and suppression of protest

Benjamin Netanyahu has been indicted as a war criminal. His government is systematically killing and starving the people of Gaza. He will be remembered as one of the monsters of modern history. And Trump welcomed him to the White House.

I was proud to endorse Zohran Kwame Mamdani before the primary. Today I was proud to join Adriano Espaillat as he joins #TeamZohran. The Democratic Party must unite in this moment for the future of our city.

I talk to Bernie Sanders about endorsing New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Kwame Mamdani: “They are worried that his campaign is an example of what can happen all over the country, when you bring people together to demand a government that works for all of us and not just the few.”

Very left wing vibes here at the press conference for the American Federation of Musicians Local 802's endorsement of Zohran Mamdani. Union members play in Mamdani with a rendition of "Solidarity Forever."

Democrats cannot win back working class voters with corporate backed politicians. The path forward is paved by leaders like Zohran Kwame Mamdani who stand up to the oligarchy and fight to make life affordable for working people.

There are more than a million Dominicans in NYC, and yesterday on 6th Avenue I felt every bit of that pride. Thank you for welcoming me in to celebrate the vibrant, beautiful culture and community that does so much for our city. 🇩🇴

Mahmoud Khalil’s abduction & ongoing targeting by Trump is egregious. Trump is weaponizing our courts to persecute students exercising their First Amendment rights—just as a dictator would do.
