Today, Governor Kathy Hochul unveiled her proposal to create the nation's first statewide baby allowance program. The BABY Benefit will provide thousands of low-income families with cash payments during pregnancy plus a $1200 allowance at birth. This is HUGE 🧵

These redesigns in our Soundview community are CRITICAL. They make our streets and corridors safer and more accessible for pedestrians, drivers and cyclists. Thanks for this critical investment NYC DOT! I know there’s more to come.

NY can be the first in the nation to stop surveillance pricing, a hidden system that uses our personal data to charge difference prices for the same thing. As the feds undo consumer rights, we must act. More w/ Senator Rachel May (RachelMayNY.bsky.social) City & State NY on our bill. cityandstateny.com/opinion/2025/0…

I’m tracking federal DOGE-era cuts that put critical environmental and public health programs in my district and across the Bronx at risk. These rollbacks threaten resources our communities count on. Read more from American Progress:  americanprogress.org/article/doge-c…

Proud to have led the charge in New York - the first state in the nation - to uncover the hidden system of surveillance pricing. States must step up because the federal government is retreating from its duty to protect consumers.
