The real estate lobby and right wingers once again proven extremely totally wrong: Local Law 97 is a major success so far! ✅ good jobs ✅ lower utility bills ✅ less pollution Via energy efficiency upgrades to large buildings. Check out the numbers 🧵
NYC Mayor announced major progress today on building emissions: 95% of large private buildings are meeting Local Law 97 limits. “LL97's strong start is a milestone achievement," said Urban Green's CEO Chris Halfnight. Read the full press release ow.ly/BWuJ50ZREcq #LL97 #NYC

We spent our Thursday of climate week fighting fracked gas plants. The 2nd is called "the Stacks" in Northport. National Grid which has been raising our bills to pollute us all wants to expand the plant. Northport residents say NO, @GovKathyHochul.

We’re rallying with @marcelaforny on 29th street in Brooklyn to stop the Gowanus fracked gas power plant proposed for this site by a private equity firm that builds data centers. 😱 Hochul must stop this huge new potential pollution source, which would also raise utility bills!

Between premiums, co-pays, and deductibles, healthcare costs too much and insurance is too hard to navigate. Instead of fixing it, Trump and Republicans cut taxes for rich insurance CEOs and made coverage even MORE expensive for everyone. #ThePriceIsHigh

Landlord lobby so shady
A “grassroots” homeowners group leading the charge against Local Law 97 has deep ties to a powerful real estate industry association. nysfocus.com/2026/09/24/coop…

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.

Public $$ belongs in public schools, not with vouchers that fund private schools with no accountability to taxpayers. Hochul should reject this program and recommit to the schools serving nearly every child in our state. #NoFederalVouchers #OptOutNow #NoVouchersInNY #HochulSayNO

The working class needs transit fast! ✊ This weekend, we gathered bus riders, elected officials and advocates to officially launch our campaign to win fast and free buses for all New Yorkers. Our city deserves a world-class system that's fast, reliable, and accessible for all.

📸 Weekly canvassing in Sunset Park, Brooklyn to urge Hochul to stop the proposed Gowanus fracked gas power plant. If private equity gets its way, we get higher utility bills & more air pollution. We were joined by @marcelaforny & @CMAlexaAviles, thank you! 441 ⬇️

The American people deserve a say in AI. It shouldn't be left to five billionaire CEOs in a backroom. If we are going to get this right, we need everyone's help. Anna Myers and I are teaming up to give the mic back to the American people.
Right now, a handful of Silicon Valley billionaires control the fate of our futures, making decisions about AI development and deployment without our input or our consent. That's why we're launching Who Decides: to take back control of how this technology is governed, and to build a unified front on AI. This is the defining issue of our future, and we need to act now. Join us to make a difference at whodecides.org

With broken hearts, we mourn the loss of our third brother found deceased in his taxi over the last three months. The brother, of the Sikh faith, was a father to 10-year-old twins. He was young and active. On Friday afternoon around 5 pm, he pulled over after dropping off passengers in the West Village. His friends realized something was wrong when they couldn't reach him for hours. At 11 pm, they traced the car to the West Village and learned he had been parked there since the drop-off. How many strangers passed him? How many hit the hood for the car to move or lamented there were too many cabbies taking up parking spots? There lay a man, a devoted father and husband, with a wife in a frantic search and with parents and siblings far away. We are supposed to work to live, not live to work. But drivers like our deceased brother work grueling hours. As trips shrink while costs grow, they’re left with little time to take care of themselves working longer and longer hours to try to make ends meet. Rest in eternal peace, dear brother. We know this inhumane system failed you, though you gave it your everything. We will honor you in our struggle.

Amazon Teamsters, with the support of a supermajority of the New York City Council and Mayor Zohran Mamdani, are about to make a historic breakthrough to hold the $3 trillion corporation accountable by passing the Delivery Protection Act. Nothing can stop the strength and solidarity of the Teamsters Union.
