You cannot walk into a home you do not own and say you have a right to stay.

Property ownership is a fundamental right, and my office will not allow individuals to exploit any confusion surrounding squatters' rights for personal gain.

I was tremendously proud to help rename a street after late Assemblywoman Nettie Mayersohn in the heart of which she called home for 66 years. I hope to honor the legacy she left.

My big brother, Michael, died 5 years ago. He had such an interesting and remarkable life. Through it all, we had an amazing bond. Just wanted him to be remembered today.

An emaciated, sickly dog chained to a small box, her filthy coat wet with urine, was rescued from a Far Rockaway apartment. The abuse of voiceless, defenseless creatures is unconscionable.

We charged the dog's abuser and will hold her accountable. queensda.org/far-rockaway-w…
