What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

HAPPENING NOW: We’re at 26 Fed Plaza, where ICE has been kidnapping immigrant NYers, to demand access to the 10th fl - where people are being inhumanely detained - and to block ICE vans from leaving.

We refuse to stand by while ICE abducts our neighbors. Neither should our leaders. #ICEoutofNY
