My early Saturday morning started with an adventure- trapped in an elevator for an hour. The elevator maintenance company assured me that someone was coming. After 45 minutes, I called 911 and @FDNY Ladder 152 came in 3 mins did their work and got me out.
Thanks FDNY Ladder 152.

On Saturday, May 2, we buried my 13yr old relative Aniela Althea, who died from #BrainCancer. She was diagnosed at age 11.
NY should not deny #Biomarker testing. It can save lives.

.@Sec_Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I'm calling on her to resign.
Gregory Bovino must also be fired.
No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.
