I’m calling on the NY legislature to reconvene in a special session to pass Andrew Gounardes and Assembly Member Karines Reyes, R.N.’s #NY4All It’s never too late to protect New Yorkers.




As we saw yesterday, ICE enforcement presents a growing threat to New Yorkers—regardless of citizenship status. The legislature should hold a special session to pass State Senator Andrew Gounardes & Assembly Member Karines Reyes, R.N.’s bill, NY4All, this year. We must do everything we can to protect our people.







Today’s court decision confirms that Mayor Eric Adams’s executive orders to circumvent the local law banning solitary confinement were an unlawful abuse of power. Solitary confinement is proven to make jails and our city less safe. The mayoral administration must follow the law.






Please view the joint statement below from Caucus Cahir Michaelle C. Solages & Chair of the Committee on Crime and Corrections Senator NYS Senator Julia Salazar regarding DOCCS & the HALT Solitary Confinement Law.
