Seeking a lift: Queens lawmaker urges MTA to equip more 7 train stations with elevators | amNewYork A Queens state lawmaker on Tuesday urged the MTA to make more 7 train stations running through the borough more accessible to all residents.

Immigrant, working-class communities carried NYC through COVID—yet seniors, parents & ppl w/ disabilities still face inaccessible stations. On the 7 stops remain noncompliant decades later. I’m running for State Senate to fix this.

Queens was devastated by COVID, exposing deep public health inequities in immigrant & working-class communities. Today I asked @mayor.nyc.gov about NYC’s Article 6 cut from 36% to 20% — costing us $90M a year.

I am fighting to restore full funding. Public health isn’t optional.🩺

Yesterday at the Environment Conservation hearing, I opposed ConEd’s rate hike and challenged plans for new gas plants in NYC that would raise bills, harm public health, and derail our climate goals. There was no real answer. Our future is renewable energy—not fossil fuels.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

I joined officials urging the @NYSDPS to reject Con Ed’s proposed rate hikes. Families & small businesses can’t absorb years of increases above inflation while shareholders get excessive profits.

Energy is essential. People first. Not corporate profits. 💡

Vickie Paladino’s call to expel, sanction & denaturalize Muslims is vile, unconstitutional, and dangerous. This is blatant Islamophobia. Muslim New Yorkers belong here—full stop. Someone who promotes hate like this has no place on the City Council and must be censured immediately

School shootings. ICE. Climate disasters. The United States is not safe for young people, and there’s one reason why: billionaires have bought out our government.

We are grieving across the world after a deadly antisemitic attack at a Hanukkah gathering in Australia. Here at home, reports of menorah vandalism in Jackson Heights are a reminder that antisemitism—big or small—must be confronted everywhere.

Hate has no place here.
