I am the only Palestinian American serving in Congress, and my perspective is needed here now more than ever. I will not be silenced and I will not let anyone distort my words. I’m from Detroit, where I learned to speak truth to power, even if my voice shakes.

You don’t have to watch the video of #TyreNichols being beaten by police. You don’t have to subject yourself to that trauma. It should not require another video of a Black human being dehumanized for anyone to understand that police brutality is an urgent, devastating issue.

I applaud @GovKathyHochul for creating funding for LGBTQ+ senior housing. Our LGBTQ+ senior community often experience disparities, such as financial hardship and social isolation. This is a major step in making sure those who have paved the way for us can age with dignity!

Among the estimated 800,000 older LGBTQ+ New Yorkers, many face structural disparities, including social isolation, higher rates of poverty, and challenges finding and affording LGBTQ+-affirming housing. Thank you to @GovKathyHochul for your work on this. https://t.co/4zHfpZXHKZ

“Coronavirus in [jails and prisons] will dramatically increase the epidemic curve, not flatten it, and disproportionately for people of color.” Now, more than ever, we need @NYGovCuomo to stop pushing for regressive bail laws. https://t.co/ZgUU5i8OO4

The conditions inside, which are inhumane, are now a threat to any American with a jail in their county — meaning just about everyone.

#MRTA now!
We need TRUE #MarijuanaJustice in NY because Black people are disproportionately targeted and affected by marijuana prohibition in the state. @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie @NYGovCuomo do the right thing for NY and pass #MRTA now!
