We are building a grassroots movement of everyday people to transform New York so it works for all of us.
Hudson Valley, New York
Joined March 2013
It’s past time to cut the cord with Central Hudson’s corporate monopoly on energy and establish a public power authority. With public power, we have the ability to not only save New Yorker’s money but to have it more beholden to the people. Sounds like a no-brainer to me.
Without public ownership, we won’t address energy affordability and we won’t get our aging grid to the 21st century. Our bill to replace Central Hudson Gas & Electric will start saving millions in Year 1! Read about it in the NY Times. https://t.co/RNK5m26Cvc

Yesterday, @CentralHudson supposedly released a "counter study" saying a takeover would raise people's bills. Today, the press asked to see the study and they said they can't share it (lol). Release your "study" just as @hvpauthority did: https://t.co/Jpn52LYfco

Everyday NYers are stepping up to protect immigrant communities, and they need their elected officials to do the same. As lawmakers, we have an obligation to do more than condemn ICE. We must pass anti-ICE legislation like NY4All, Dignity Not Detention & more.
Mayhem erupted outside of a Chinatown parking garage on Saturday after protesters learned of a massive ICE presence inside. Story: https://t.co/M4WT69Cl8s

1 in 5 children in New York lives in poverty. Taxing billionaires and the ultra-wealthy more shouldn't be controversial when kids are still going to bed hungry. Every child deserves opportunity. #DelgadoforNY

Grateful for the brave New Yorkers standing up to ICE right now at Centre St. and Howard. Join if you can! We must show ICE and their agenda of cruelty are NOT welcome in New York. ✊🏽
ICE still FROZEN at Centre St & Howard in lower Manhattan right now as calls continue circulating for people to join. NYPD arriving with barricades.

I know Iowa and New York are different in many ways, but this story caught my eye: moving toward free buses in Iowa City. MTA buses should be free in New York too — for our workers, our families, our future. https://t.co/Ukudj7BBId

Ridership jumped, people cut back on driving and, over the summer, the city extended the program another year.

This @nytimes report confirms what many of us know - the shocking cruelty that goes on in @NYSDOCCS facilities. Passing the Robert Brooks Omnibus Bill is the least the governor can do to begin confronting this stain on our state's conscience. https://t.co/NzzZHijEA2?

As frustrations among corrections officers mount, abusive treatment of inmates is rising and becoming more vicious, records and interviews show.

New Yorkers relying on the ACA for their health coverage are about to see their premiums rise by an average of $877. NY can fight back by passing the New York Health Act. The NYHA would save lives, save money, and cover every New Yorker. Learn more 👉

Health insurance premiums will more than double for millions unless Congress takes action. The GOP doesn't want to fund the tax credits that over 20 million American use to keep health care costs down. But if these credits expire, people will see premiums skyrocket.

ICE broke into the home of a mother and her four children, breaking down their door and pointing guns at the family. The agents vowed to return to kidnap an individual who does not even live on the premises. Protect yourself and your neighbors: https://t.co/3aesPLacnT

Hochul goes to WH and falls in line to build his pipeline. Zohran goes to WH and Trump falls in line. Working class politics wins.

Fossil fuel companies spent $15.9M in lobbying to stall clean-energy policies in NY. The result? Soaring bills, repeated rate hikes, and an affordability crisis — all while utilities’ profits climb. Read our new report with @strongforall & @twittlesis: https://t.co/K85xC3eGQP

Starbucks workers across the country are on an Unfair Labor Practices strike, fighting for a fair contract. While workers are on strike, I won’t be buying any Starbucks, and I’m asking you to join us. Together, we can send a powerful message: No contract, no coffee.
As of today, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
