The federal government is gutting critical social services such as Head Start, Title X family planning, domestic violence shelters and so much more. I joined CNN earlier to talk about how we’re taking on this baseless attack:
I’ll be joining @CNN in a few minutes to talk about our latest lawsuit to protect Americans from this federal government. nytimes.com/2025/07/21/us/…
Yesterday, I visited the Suleymaniye Mosque in Dix Hills to engage in a thoughtful dialogue with community leaders. From combating islamophobia to addressing concerns around immigration and ICE, it was a meaningful and productive conversation. I am grateful for the warm welcome.

This administration’s continued disrespect of Dr. King’s legacy knows no bounds.
Statement from me and my brother, Martin Luther King IlI, on the Release of the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Assassination Files “We recognize that the release of documents concerning the assassination of our father, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., has long been a subject of interest,…
Today I had the opportunity to speak at @LIFEDofLABOR’s Constitutional Convention. I will fight every day to ensure that they receive their fair share they’ve earned for the vital work they do. The Empire State will always be union strong!

This violent attack has no place in our state. I’m glad that the officer is recovering and that the assailant — who has a violent criminal history — is in custody. nydailynews.com/2025/07/20/cus…
This week, I joined 19 AGs to defend immigration services for unaccompanied children. These services provide legal assistance to vulnerable children and canceling them is cruel. I will always fight to ensure no child is left to fend for themselves. fingerlakes1.com/2025/07/18/jam…
This week, my office led a coalition in securing over $200 million from Gilead Sciences, Inc. to stop Gilead's illegal kickback scheme to promote its HIV medications. I will always fight for New Yorkers’ right to honest and transparent health care. crainsnewyork.com/health-pulse/g…
These hardworking lawyers deserve fair wages, better working conditions & dignity. They serve New Yorkers most in need — now we need to stand with them.
“Working people deserve lawyers who can afford to pay their rent." - @UAWRegion9A Director Brandon Mancilla Over 750 legal services workers with UAW @ALAA2325 are on strike in NYC to demand the funding, staffing, and support they need to deliver justice for low-income New…
Using private health care information to target immigrants is unacceptable and dangerous. No one should have to put their families and their safety at risk just to see a doctor. apnews.com/article/immigr…
Secretary Kennedy and @HHS are trying to push through a new rule that would slash access to affordable health care coverage for millions and drive up medical costs nationwide. Today, my office and a group of AGs filed a lawsuit to block this unlawful assault on public health.
Today, we honor the lives of John Lewis and Eric Garner. John Lewis dedicated his life to creating an America where everyone is equal. In his honor, and in memory of Eric Garner, we must continue our fight for true justice and equality for everyone in this nation.
The federal government's illegal freezing of these funds will cause countless students and families in New York and across our country to lose access to programs and resources they need. I'm fighting back. apnews.com/article/boys-g…
I'm suing the federal government with a group of AGs over its deadly decision to end FEMA's BRIC program and slash billions of dollars that protect communities from natural disasters. These funds are vital to prepare for extreme events like the devastating floods this summer.
The hardworking @UAW @alaa2325 legal workers in New York spend every day on the front lines of the fight for justice, defending and championing the rights of our most vulnerable New Yorkers. They deserve fair pay and conditions that reflect the value of their tireless service.
