Thanks to all who braved this morning’s weather for our #RegoPark cleanup with Catalina Cruz, Esq. and SenatorJoeAddabbo!

'Investing in immigration legal resources isn't just a moral imperative to protect the rights of our immigrant neighbors—it's a fiscally responsible commitment that will yield dividends for our state’s economy for decades to come.' - Catalina Cruz, Esq. #ARA

We are joining forces with Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal and Catalina Cruz, Esq. to make sure NYS funds immigration legal services at $150M—a crucial step toward advancing fairness and family unity. We applaud them for championing the #AccessToRepresentation Act!

During Second Chance Month, we acknowledge officials that support our Institute for @justiceandopp & worked to pass Clean Slate. Clean Slate is a prime example of giving ppl a second chance & we look forward to its implementation later this year. @catalinacruzny @senatormyrie

🎨🎨The day for painting on Paseo Park finally arrived! 🎨🎨

As @nyccouncil Parks Chair, I believe public art and public space enrich our bodies and souls.

Last year, my office funded a project to paint all the granite cubes across the 26 blocks of the #34AveOpenStreets . 1/3

Join Catalina Cruz, Esq. SenatorJoeAddabbo and my office for our #RegoPark community cleanup! We will be meeting 10am next Saturday (4/13) at PS 139 -- all supplies will be provided, with students able to claim volunteer service hour credits. We hope to see you there!

We carry the weight of the city’s health— and many of us can’t pay for rent or food. This is not good for anyone. We’re simply asking for a fair contract with the resources we need to care for our patients. It’s time you listen @nycmayor.

Over 60 elected officials throughout New York have signed onto this letter by NY Senator Jessica Ramos calling on Mayor Eric Adams to reach a fair contract with the thousands of resident physicians & fellows at the city’s public hospitals who provide frontline care to NYC communities every day.

Really interested to hear about this plan. I reached out to NYC Public Schools asking for help to address this matter more than 2 months ago and have yet to hear back…..

Opinion from Catalina Cruz, Esq., Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal & Christine Quinn | Shelter limits are not the answer to the migrant crisis

Some really great news: this 💎 was accepted & is going to Bronx Science! I am so incredibly proud as she worked so hard for this, & everything she does. She & I are blessed with a lovely network of madrinas and padrinos who helped us here, and for that I am forever grateful.

Such a senseless tragedy, may Officer Diller rest in peace. Praying for his family, especially his wife and children.

We saw Linda B. Rosenthal “the #OriginalRosenthal” open opened the door to justice via the #AdultSurvivorsAct …

Now Julia Salazar and I are looking to pass the #FairAccessToJustice bill w/ so survivors of this kind of abuse can fairly access the justice they deserve. #CloseRikers

This article highlights the brutal reality of life on Rikers, where sexual assault is pervasive. The #SurvivorJusticeCoalition is working on the #FairAccessToJustice bill w/ Catalina Cruz, Esq. & Julia Salazar so all survivors can fairly access the justice they deserve. #CloseRikers

Recently a young trans neighbor died of suicide. Trans kids like them deserve our love, protection & respect. Instead, this CB hides behind a “request for a review” in policies to attack their humanity.

If they can’t see how dangerous this is, perhaps they don’t belong on a CB.

Huge news for Queens! Steve and Alexandra Cohen give $116m to LaGuardia Community College to build a state-of-the-art workforce training center in Western Queens. Gift is Largest Ever to a Community College in the US! Largest Donation in CUNY history!

Here’s to the humans who allow you to believe and get a second chance in life 💕

Our hearts are with Assemblymember Smullen and his family after the unthinkable loss of their son AJ. On behalf of the entire NYS Assembly, I extend our deepest sympathies. We will keep you in our prayers.

Caucus Member Catalina Cruz, Esq. was raised by a single immigrant mother who worked multiple jobs to support her family. The Assemblywoman has drawn from this experience to fight for tenant protections, immigration reform and workers’ rights in her district . #WomensHistoryMonth
