Proud to secure $300K for upgrades at the Bayside Senior Center! I stopped by to share the good news. This funding will support building improvements and a new outdoor recreation area. I can’t wait to see everyone enjoying the new space in the future.

Great meeting with @LCVoters on Capitol Hill this week. As the Trump Administration rolls back affordable clean energy, utility bills keep rising for families nationwide.
I’m pushing legislation to cut cost by supporting households, restoring clean energy tax credits, removing barriers to renewable energy projects, stopping excessive rate hikes, and more.
Republicans should join us before prices climb even higher.

While I was in Washington, my team was on hand in Rego Park with local residents who are seeking safety improvements at the intersection of Fleet Street and Alderton Street. The safety of our neighborhoods must always be a top priority.
Queens Community Board 6 was proud to stand with neighbors, parents, children and elected officials offices today at Fleet Street and Alderton Street to call on NYC DOT to implement safety improvements at the intersection.

Thank you @PhilWongNYC for keeping a light shined on this planned battery facility in Middle Village. I continue to call for it to be in a commercial or industrial area instead of across from a school, daycare center and residential homes.

Republicans passed a reconciliation bill that wrote a blank check for ICE and CBP for the next two years, removing long-standing safeguards like bans on shackling pregnant women and protections for people who experience sexual assault in custody.
Democrats are fighting to hold ICE agents to the same standards that all local and state law enforcement are already held to, but our colleagues across the aisle have abandoned even the most basic oversight.

Families in Queens struggling to afford gas, groceries, utility bills, and health care certainly don’t love it.

Republicans called the Appropriations Committee back at 11 PM to jam through a partisan Homeland Security funding bill—but then couldn’t be bothered to show up on time. So I turned on the game! #AlwaysKnicks

This is corruption in plain sight.
Fourteen of the 27 known corporate donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion during the past six months, according to a report.

Proud to secure $800,000 in federal funding for critical repairs at NYCHA’s Bland Houses. Every resident deserves safe, healthy housing, and these upgrades will help address long-standing issues like leaks and mold.

Gas, groceries, utilities—costs keep rising, and families are feeling the strain.
Democrats are fighting to lower costs and help families get ahead, while Republicans cater to billionaires.

The GOP is handing a $70B slush fund to ICE. With that money, we could:
-Feed 30M hungry people.
-Give 1.3M kids free childcare.Â
-Lower gas and grocery prices.
They just don’t care about the American people.

Republicans are pushing a new policy to inject extreme, right-wing social policies into foreign aid.
This Expanded Global Gag Rule is already hurting women and girls, minorities, and LGBTQ communities worldwide.
I introduced the Protecting Human Rights and Public Health in Foreign Assistance Act to repeal it. Taxpayer dollars should protect health and human rights—not political agendas.

Great to be at the Bayside BID Restaurant Stroll this weekend! I love supporting our local restaurants and hearing how we can help them thrive.

What "directive" is the Secretary talking about?

Funding for international family planning is the law.Â

But the Trump Administration would rather destroy millions of dollars of taxpayer-funded health supplies and withhold funding for lifesaving care.
@RepGraceMeng and I will continue demanding answers.

When the House passed a bipartisan Iran War Powers Resolution to put an end to the President's reckless and costly war, I voted yes.
The power to declare war belongs to Congress—not the President. As more Republicans join us, the Senate must take up this measure to end this chaos.

Joined the LeFrak City Tenants Association meeting to share updates on my work in DC, hear directly from residents, and listen to their questions and concerns. Always grateful to connect with the LeFrak community and keep folks informed about the resources my office offers.
