I was honored to rename the corner of Newel St. & Nassau Ave after Edith Schkrutz, a pillar of the Greenpoint community for more than 75 years.
Schkrutz was a pillar of the community who was involved in several local groups. greenpointers.com/2026/09/24…

Edith gave so much to our community through her years at PS 34 and her volunteer efforts with just about every organization in Greenpoint from the Greenpoint Lions to the 94th precinct council to Church of the Ascension.

It is great to see so many elected officials supporting the proposed Dekalb/Lafayette improvements! Thanks @CMCrystalHudson @OsseChi @ReynosoBrooklyn @LincolnRestler for fighting for complete streets that center the needs of bus riders and cyclists + safety.
We’re glad to see @NYC_DOT proposing bus lanes for the B38 - 18,000 riders per day will see faster trips! 🚌 Back in the spring, local electeds signed a letter in support of improvements to Dekalb and Lafayette. Looking forward to seeing the red carpet rolled out this fall!

Great to join @heatmap_news at their Climate Week event to talk about the future of transportation in NYC, including my bill to cap Citi Bike fees at $3 a ride. Fighting the climate crisis requires excellent public transit and a safe cycling network.

We honored some living legends last night in the Chambers. And they're still pushing the envelope! Such a sweet reminder that you always have more fight in you than you think.

Reporter @katie_honan at @THECITYNY was incredible yesterday at the Trump-Mamdani press conference. The mayor's team went to wrap up after 4 questions, but Katie made sure the president heard her question on TPS. @KellyMena came w the great folo: "The President is still here"

The tree planters we installed with @thehort along Manhattan Ave are already adding some much-needed greenery in Greenpoint. Thanks to the excellent folks at The Hort for maintaining & watering them as they grow and the hard working @aceprogramsny team for keeping planters clean.

There were 71,500 delayed @NYCSchools bus routes last year. Our students deserve so much better. School bus companies hold our communities hostage when their contracts are up. @RJackson_NYC & @YudelkaTapia’s bill would protect drivers & allow us to kick bad companies to the curb
About 150,000 students take the school bus to class, relying on a system operated by more than 50 bus companies with city contracts that have not been rebid since 1979. Read more: ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/edu…  specne.ws/1zDyZf

I stand in solidarity with @SchnepsUnion workers fighting for a contract with fair pay & better healthcare benefits. Schneps Media management should engage in good faith with its employees, drop challenges to union members’ eligibility, and begin negotiations.
🚨 Update! 🚨 #SchnepsUnion Schneps wants to exclude nearly a quarter of our union!

I was honored to present @INDBrooklyn’s Public Service Award, along with @LincolnRestler, to Congresswoman @NydiaVelazquez yesterday. After 34 years in Congress, and more than 40 years in public service, her legacy is immeasurable. She truly is an inspiration to all who serve.
