NEW: I led a letter to Republican House leadership opposing a provision in the reconciliation bill that would impose a 10-year moratorium on state and local AI regulation. 50+ state legislators signed on. NY House Republicans cannot support this. cityandstateny.com/politics/2025/…
When transit thrives, New York City thrives — and we’re making the most ambitious transit improvement plan in history a reality. amny.com/opinion/mta-fi…

NEW: NWS REPORTS FLASH FLOOD WARNING NOW IN EFFECT FOR ALL FIVE BOROUGHS Thunderstorms are producing heavy rain across NYC. Flash flooding is already happening or expected to begin shortly. Up to 2 more inches of rain may fall quickly. Areas affected include, but are not…
Antisemitism has no place in our society, digitally or otherwise. We must address the irresponsible use of AI in high-risk use cases in the next legislative session. The risk of discrimination is too high. The NY AI Act can help us protect New Yorkers from hate speech and bias.

9 months ago the FTC passed the "Click-to-Cancel" rule, and it still has not gone into effect. The new FTC commissioners need to re-issue this rule and urge Congress to legislate on it to put consumers first! tiktok.com/t/ZT6dkFd5h/
Over 16k Americans weighed in on the click-to-cancel rule, overwhelmingly supporting our effort to end subscription traps. The rule was set to go into effect in May but this @FTC slow-walked it—and now a court has tossed it out, claiming industry didn’t get enough of a say.…
Why does every basic product now require a subscription?? Former FTC Chair Lina Khan says she received letters of support across the aisle for the "Click to Cancel" laws, which are now being postponed by the new administration. 😧

ICYMI: I spoke to @JoDeeKenney on @ny1desk’s In Focus about the end of the legislative session, the budget bill in Congress, and what could be next for the legislature. Given recent news from ICE’s head, Tom Homan we must pass New York for All.
Unacceptable. @NYCMayor Adams is stalling yet another transportation project: "Even after a successful round of outreach that saw every single elected official and all three community boards in the neighborhood support the proposal, the whole thing is now in limbo."

In the second part of this video, a gentleman's court date was rescheduled because a translator was not available. ICE didn't care, dragged him away anyway, and threatened to arrest my team. TLDR: ICE is abducting people who are following the law. @CMAlexaAviles can confirm.
NOW: Migrant Arrested by Federal Agents as NY State Senator Julia Salazar attempts to escort them as they leave Immigration Court in Lower Manhattan.
