AI is changing our world, but our laws haven’t kept up. With a leadership vacuum in DC, it’s up to New York to keep communities safe and ensure the burgeoning AI industry amplifies the best of humanity, rather than its worst. My op-ed with Alex Bores: cityandstateny.com/opinion/2025/0…

Imagine opposing a bill to "prevent bioweapons development and other abuses from artificial intelligence." But putting profits ahead of safety is nothing new for Big Tech. The RAISE Act offers basic, commonsense precautions to keep New Yorkers safe. news.bgov.com/bloomberg-gove…

As Congress threatens to slash Medicaid + food stamps, it’s on state leaders to put New Yorkers' needs first. But when our tax code includes ridiculous loopholes and carveouts for the wealthy, everyday people pay the price. My bills can change that. crainsnewyork.com/politics-polic…

There is a search and rescue operation underway for crew members who were thrown overboard from a ship after it collided with the Brooklyn Bridge. The bridge has reopened for traffic but delays remain. We'll need answers as to how this happened. nypost.com/2025/05/17/us-…

Congratulations to my new colleague in the State Senate, Sam Sutton! Overwhelmingly victory tonight in South Brooklyn, winning by 2-1, and maintaining our historically large Senate majority. I look forward to working together for our communities.

A huge congratulations to my friend Sam Sutton on his overwhelming election to the State Senate tonight! Southern Brooklyn is incredibly lucky to have elected a true humanitarian - and a true mensch! - to represent them in Albany.

This is the biggest wealth transfer in American history from poor to rich, it kicks 14 million off of healthcare, takes nutritional assistance away from families, and blows up the deficit. You don’t convene a hearing at 1 in the morning if you think your bill is popular.

Justin has the experience, attitude, and verve to be NYC’s top financial watchdog. Check out his new ad to see how he’ll protect our city budget and lead the fight against Trump’s assault on NYC.

The murders of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim are an unspeakable tragedy and a vile act of antisemitism. My thoughts are with the families of this young couple. May we use this senseless act as a clarion call to fight for a world where this is never allowed to happen again.

NEW: Andrew Cuomo is mounting a stunning political comeback despite 12 women accusing him of sexual harassment just 3 years ago. I spoke with several of the women whose claims were substantiated by three investigations. They feel betrayed & forgotten. huffpost.com/entry/andrew-c…

“By the time of his August 2021 resignation, Cuomo had cut about 770 beds in OMH psych centers statewide, a 19% reduction, and 275 beds in NYC a 17% reduction.” nydailynews.com/2025/05/25/cuo…

As we celebrate Memorial Day, I’m thinking about one of the most beautiful and solemn places I’ve ever visited: the American Cemetery in Normandy. What an incredible display of the sacrifice of those who gave everything so the rest of us could live free. Happy Memorial Day!

Many large pension funds are calling for corporate governance reforms to address a crisis of confidence at Tesla. Call me crazy but I don't think New York City should be investing $1B+ in a company whose CEO spends his days trying to gut Social Security and the 9/11 health fund.
