I support securing the border and deporting criminals. But targeting people who have lived here legally for 25 years, worked hard, and built a life, that goes too far. Now this administration wants to send them back to a country they barely know. That’s just wrong.

Temporary Victory!. A federal judge in California just gave legal, tax-paying TPS recipients a temporary lifeline — but only through November. Here’s what the court said:. “The freedom to live fearlessly, the opportunity of liberty, and the American dream. That is all Plaintiffs

Residents in Bay Terrace and Bayside really got walloped. We are reaching out to the Small Business Administration, FEMA, and New York State to try and help our residents and businesses get through this.

Bay Terrace and the Queens part of my district was hit hard by the flash floods. Climate change is real. The changes at the EPA and by the Trump administration on the environment are wrong-headed. We need to work on preventing it from getting worse and building resiliency!

These folks have been here legally for over 25 years. Watch this clip!

Yes, we need secure borders and must deport violent criminals, but we also need to honor our commitments and treat people like human beings. TPS recipients who have been here legally for 25 years should not have their lives ripped away from them.

“The idea of separating these families and ripping them out of our economy and creating this instability and fear in our community is just plain wrong,” Suozzi said. “And I believe that most American people agree with that.”.

They are terrified. I support the President’s efforts to secure the border and deport violent criminals—but this is going too far. Hondurans who have been living legally in the U.S. for over 25 years, working and paying taxes, are now being threatened with deportation on

My deepest condolences to the family of Wesley LePatner, who was murdered in the shooting yesterday in midtown Manhattan. Wesley grew up in Roslyn. I have reached out to the UJA where she served as a volunteer. I have said a prayer for her and her family. Heartbreaking. May her

Once again there has been another senseless shooting in NYC. This time, four people lost their lives, including NYPD officer Didarul Islam. My heart is with all the victims and their families, and I recommit to support the men and women in blue. When will we take action to stop

Let me be clear. I’m a Democratic capitalist, not a Democratic socialist. I’m relentlessly focused on making sure all Americans, if they work hard, are rewarded with a good life. That means you can buy a home, educate your children, pay for health insurance, and retire without

Great wages and training close to home. It’s a good time for New Yorkers to train for a job in air traffic control! . We need 4,000 more air traffic controllers in the U.S. in order to make sure our skies are safe. Vaughn College in Queens is stepping up.

We need more air traffic controllers! These are good paying, union jobs that we should be celebrating. I love that Vaughn College is meeting the moment and working to train our next generation of air-traffic controllers without the need for them to relocate to Oklahoma City.

We need to create more of an ownership society. Hard working Americans must be cut in on the success of the American economy. Let’s make it happen.

On July 26, 1775, as one of its initial acts of independence, the Second Continental Congress established a new postal service and appointed Benjamin Franklin as the postmaster general. Throughout my career, I have focused on strengthening the United States Postal Service,

We need more air traffic controllers. These are high-paying jobs with great benefits, including health insurance and pensions – and it’s an important public service!. Today I visited Vaughn College to promote their new training program in Queens. Sign up now for the September

We’ve made enormous wealth in this country. Good. But we need to cut workers in on the deal. That’s why I wrote the Share Plan Act to incentivize companies to give their lowest 80% wage earners 5% of the companies stock. It’s a bipartisan, capitalist and common-sense solution to

Watch my full interview on Squawk Box. We need to cut workers in on the deal. That’s why I am leading the bipartisan SHARE Plan Act to give the lowest 80% wage earners at companies 5% stock in exchange for a 3% corporate tax break. It’s a solution to our wealth inequality

I have strong bipartisan support for my SHARE Plan Act that incentivizes companies to give 5% of their stock to their lowest 80% wage earners. This is a capitalist solution that addresses our nation’s serious wealth inequality concerns. Let’s cut workers in on the deal!
