Not a penny to make life more affordable for American families, but $70 BILLION for ICE to terrorize our communities.
Mayor Mamdani and a group of children hold hands while running through red tape in a hallway.
For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.
We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.
Spent Saturday with President Obama and New York's Cutest — turns out my first name is Mayor and I need to be doing more squats.Â
Here’s to building a City where families can thrive and every classroom is full of this much joy.

56,497 companies already applied to get $166 BILLION in refunds for Donald Trump's illegal tariffs.
But where’s Trump’s plan to give the American people their money back?
Every second that ticks by with no refund for American families is theft in broad daylight.
27 years since the Columbine High School massacre.
27 years of failing to protect our kids.
27 years without common-sense gun laws.
I watched it as a student. Now it’s only gotten worse for our kids.

The New York Times: To Open the Strait of Hormuz, Trump Wants to Blockade Iran. Experts Are Skeptical.
On top of being outright stupid, this is a reckless escalation that will put our troops in even greater danger as they fight in a war of choice that Trump still cannot justify.
BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked my War Powers Resolution that would have ended Trump's unnecessary, unjustified war against Iran.
These cowards have had four chances to stop this chaos in the Middle East.
And they put Trump's ego before America.
Every damn time.
It's disgusting that even as our troops do their jobs, Trump and Republicans are so eager to neglect their own.
End this war. Now.

More perfect union: BREAKING: The Senate just passed the legislation allowing the devastation of the Boundary Waters. The motion passed 50-49, and now goes to Donald Trump’s desk.
Republicans just handed the Boundary Waters to a foreign corporation.
For the GOP, it’s foreign billionaires first, America last.
You can't mine at Yosemite. You can't mine at Yellowstone. You shouldn't be allowed to mine in the Boundary Waters.
Republicans are trying to sell out our most pristine waters to a foreign mining corporation.
NO.
Headed to the floor to vote to end Trump’s war with Iran. Again.
Trump is sticking taxpayers with a $40 billion dollar bill and his war is making it harder for Americans to get by.
Prices are up and the economy is in trouble.
It's time to end this war permanently.
🚨 BREAKING: The Senate passed H.J. Res. 140, gutting Boundary Waters protections. This sets a dangerous precedent for public lands nationwide. We’re not done fighting. There are still paths to stop this mine. We'll keep you posted today about what this means and how you can get involved.
