“ICE activity in NYC has increased significantly in recent weeks – and with Trump’s TPS cancellations, we fear they may ramp up detentions of Haitian New Yorkers in the coming days. So, now is a good time to mobilize to help protect immigrant neighbors. Hands Off NYC is hosting virtual ICE-spotting & KYR trainings this evening & Tuesday. Please consider signing up: http:// mobilize.us/handsoffnyc/ev ent/1001346 … The NYC ICE Hotline remains a vital resource. Call or text 229-304-8720 ASAP if you see ICE in your neighborhood.”
“Props to the brave students in India who forced the resignation of the Modi government’s education minister. These brave students staged a peaceful sit-in protest that lasted a month, went on hunger strike, and endured violence from the Delhi police. They were called “cockroaches” by their own government — so they started the Cockroach Janta Party to fight back. I hope the cockroach phenomenon is contagious, and we see a peaceful youth uprising against our own oppressive regime right here at home!”
“A real honor to earn the support of @GIFFORDS_org . If there's anyone who embodies the spirit of courage and resilience, it's @GabbyGiffords . I'll go to Congress striving to follow her example as a tenacious gun safety champion. Every single day, Americans are needlessly killed by gun violence. We must do more to take on the toxic special interests who proliferate the flow of guns on our streets.”

“Spent the weekend with union members (including some cool librarians organizing in Denver), community groups, immigrant leaders, student organizers & progressive elected officials at the @CA_WFP and @COWorkingFam state conventions this weekend. Loved meeting @Villegas_CA22 and @MelatKirosCO . Really excited about our freshman class! It sure isn’t just in New York: A powerful energy is moving across the country for big Democratic wins this fall — and for bolder, clear-eyed leadership to fight corruption & deliver for working people.”
“I’m in LA this weekend for the California @WorkingFamilies Party Convention, where I was thrilled to meet Randy Villegas @Villegas_CA22 . Randy is: (a) the Democratic candidate for Congress in CA-22, a “red-to-blue” swing seat currently represented by a Republican that we must win to take back the House, (b) an inspiring person, first in his family to go to college, then got a PhD and became a teacher, and (c) a bold progressive fighter for working families. Please join me today in helping him win: http:// Randy.vote”
“The spirit that’s moving in this city – on Election Night, I called it solidarity – offers a path forward to a future so much better than the grim, selfish, zero-sum world that Trump and AI oligarchs are offering. To have any chance to secure that future, we’ve got to get busy”
“This awful incident — a likely Latino man stabbing a Jewish man & an Asian man while allegedly shouting “Allahu Akbar” on the Upper West Side — is simultaneously: Frightening and depressing. Almost certainly an antisemitic hate crime. Quite likely an anti-Asian hate crime.”
