“The far left sees October 7th—the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust—not as an occasion to mourn the 1,200 Israelis murdered in an act of terror but as an occasion to romanticize the mass murder of Jews as “resistance.” The inevitable consequence of glorifying political violence is political violence itself. That is the dangerous direction in which American politics seems to be heading.”

“Thank you to Governor Hochul for delivering nearly $10 million for a cath lab at Lincoln Hospital. Without a cath lab, Bronx patients experiencing a major heart attack would have to be transferred to Bellevue in Manhattan. Every second counts. Every delay can be dangerous, even deadly. I fought for the funding. Governor Hochul delivered for the people of the Bronx, as did the Bronx Borough President and the State Legislature. A team effort to save lives in the Bronx.”

“I delivered $500,000 for the Webster PAL, one of the most vital community centers in the South Bronx. Every dollar invested in youth programming generates an estimated $3 to $13 in savings. Investing in our young people is not only good morals. It’s good economics. It’s not”[post continues]

Investing in our young people is not only good morals. It’s good economics. It’s not only the right thing to do. It is one of the most effective forms of public safety—keeping our young people engaged, off the streets, and away from the entanglements of gangs and gun violence.”

“Congressman George Latimer and I conducted an oversight inspection of the Delaney Detention Center. The overwhelming majority of the detainees held there have no criminal history. None.

“My speech at a 10/7 vigil in the Bronx: Three years ago, October 7th—the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust—cruelly coincided with Simchat Torah. What should have been a day of joy became one of overwhelming grief, shock, and trauma. On that day, Jews throughout the”[post continues]

“The world demonizes Israel 365 days a year. Perhaps, for just one day—October 7th—the critics of Israel could take a vacation from their hysterical hatred of the world’s only Jewish State and find it within themselves to express condolences for the thousands of Israelis”[post continues]
