My office and the New York Community Trust are awarding $3.2 million to 34 community environmental organizations to support pollinator conservation efforts across New York.   These funds are a down payment on a more sustainable future for future generations of New Yorkers.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant. This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.

My dear friend and colleague Comptroller Brad Lander was just violently detained by masked ICE officers while escorting folks out of immigration court. This is disgusting and horrific. He must be released immediately.

“What we saw this morning was Comptroller Lander asking ICE to follow the law,” says mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, who showed up to support. But ICE “only has an interest in terrorizing people across this country.” He demands his “immediate” release.

The scariest part about Lander being arrested is that we can all see what happened. We can hear him asking to see a warrant and not resisting. We can all see a bunch of guys without badges wearing masks arresting him. It's scary because we can see it all and they don't even care.

Hi, it’s Meg again. Brad is still in ICE custody. We are grateful to the many friends, supporters, and allies who have gathered in Federal Plaza. Together we are standing up for those with no voice.

If you’re wondering why Andrew Cuomo is so soft on ICE—and why he hasn’t called for Brad’s release—you can just follow the money.

This is pure bullshit there is clear video from start to finish, and the only one assaulted was Brad Lander Still waiting for Eric Adams and/or Andrew Cuomo to condemn what happen and demand his release

ICE agents just kidnapped NYC Comptroller and mayoral candidate for asking to see their judicial warrant. They have no authority to arrest a US citizen, and it's very clear from the videos that Lander did NOT assault an officer as one of them claims. Proud to have voted for him!

Look at this picture and this solidarity. These are the folks I want running my city. Proud to have voted for 2 ppl in this picture today as well as the husband of a third. True leadership right here. (Would have voted for Tiffany Cabán too but not my district.)
