Israel’s Defense Minister said today that “All of Lebanon must burn”. The US cannot continue to arm and fund a country whose defense minister openly advocates and commits mass killing and genocide. We know that Mike Lawler stands firmly behind Ben Gvir and the Israeli government. But what about Beth Davidson and Cait Conley? You have not heard a word of condemnation from them and likely won’t.

The students of the East Ramapo School District, a majority of whom are of color, are being denied their basic civil rights. As the NYCLU said just last week, the district is “failing kids at every level.” No politician - not Mike Lawler, nor Beth Davidson or even Cait Conley - has the courage to call out the injustice, much less do anything about it. I do. As a member of Congress, I won’t be intimidated. I will call for a civil rights investigation into the district and will be an unfailing adv

A special day for @staley_owen. He voted for the first time today, and got to vote for his Mom! So proud of him. You can vote early until June 21st!

Vote your values. Vote for the candidate who advances the vision that best aligns with yours. If you’re a progressive, if you’re tired of a corporate establishment that ignores working people, if you want Medicare for All, if you want to Abolish ICE, if you want to stop tax dollars from funding genocide and apartheid, you don’t need to compromise your values because others tell you they don’t align with the district. They do. You can support this campaign and do it confidently. We can win this

I was proud to stand with @ny4change and environmental activists against the Project Maple Pipeline. Enbridge's CEO should not be making millions while destroying our planet. That's why I'm fighting for a Green Energy future. Early voting starts June 13th. 🌏 ✊

I went to Delaney Hall, a privately run ICE detention facility in Newark where detainees are currently to engaged in a hunger strike due to inhumane conditions. If someone from NY17 is detained by ICE, there is a good chance they will be brought here. I spoke with volunteers who have been providing mutual aid to families and individuals who are victimized by this system. The conditions are unconscionable, and that is by design. Cruelty is the point. And it is all funded by our tax dollars to the

My two Dem opponents are fighting about ICE, but neither will commit to abolishing it. While establishment Dems like Beth and Cait bicker, people are dying in ICE custody. When I’m in Congress, I’ll be focused on the real fight. We must abolish ICE. Primary day is June 23.

Anyone who truly believes in public education and civil rights would get on their soapbox about the East Ramapo Central School District. We cannot ignore the injustices happening right in our own backyard. As a Member of Congress, I will fight to ensure the children of East Ramapo, and every community, receive the education they deserve.

If you support Medicare for All, vote for me in the Democratic Primary. Early voting is June 13-21. Election Day is June 23.

I will always stand with unions. They built the middle class and deserve everything they are fighting for. Power is not given, it is taken. I stand in solidarity with SEIU1199.
