If you’re not on the side of churros, you need to re-evaluate your life. Our laws demonstrate our values in society - what we protect and what we penalize reflects who we are. I don’t want to live in a society where churro ladies aren’t allowed on the subway.

If you wanna thank @staceyabrams for registering thousands of GA voters, you should also shout out @Greg_Palast for bringing the level of disenfranchisement to her attention. This is the kind of investigative journalism we need today.

@iamcardib In the UK I used to get a yearly tax breakdown for what I paid. It was pretty amazing to see how much of my taxes went to the national health service, education, etc. It also helps citizens decide what to support & who to vote in! We can easily do that here in the US!

As a Council member, I will put a moratorium on ALL rezonings until we have a comprehensive community-led plan. Additionally, I will not vote for any Council Speaker who votes for any rezoning & will review their votes carefully before making my choice. Let this be your notice.

NYCHA tenants have a lot to lose by selling off air rights & other RAD schemes. Not only will it lead to hyper-gentrification but in long term the lack of options once small influx of $ is not enough to fully fund repairs will lead to even more desperate options.

I’ll be coming out with a statement soon about all the sexist attacks that our campaign and other women running for council have been experiencing. This is EXACTLY why we need to elect women to office. Enough is enough.

This campaign is powered by the people who call District 35 home, not luxury developers or the political establishment. Together, we're going to bring real change to Central Brooklyn. That's why I'm asking for your vote on June 22.

Until we reform the ULURP process, & engage community-based plans paired w/ comprehensive city planning, these shortsighted rezonings will keep happening. Unions know it, displaced residents know it, our Council knows it. #NoFlushingRezoning @NYCCouncil @NYCSpeakerCoJo

🧵The #FlushingRezoning is racist & violates the Fair Housing Act. It would deepen segregation in the most segregated city in the U.S. & displace local families, who are largely nonwhite immigrants with legitimate housing and economic needs. #NoFlushingRezoning

One of the best parts of canvassing and speaking with small business owners is finding little treasures like these. Our small businesses are what makes Brooklyn Brooklyn, and that’s why I’ll work to protect them by passing the Small Business Jobs Survival Act. @saveourstorefronts

Is this what you consider progress? "I dream of a Bolivia free of indigenous satanic rituals, the city is not for the Indians, send them to the high plains or to the Chaco!" -Jeanine Áñez Chávez, self-proclaimed president of Bolivia after CIA backed Military Coup

Major shout outs to the coalition of community groups who conducted this 2yr air-quality study. We need representatives to advocate and ensure the proper environmental policies are put in place to make Brooklyn is a safer place. @NYCEJAlliance

Working people in New York are tired of being robbed! I’m standing here with NYC construction workers, @NICE4Workers , @DianaJFlorence , @RebeccaLamorte & calling on Albany to put their money where their mouths are and to immediately pass the Wage Theft Reform Act S2766

I’m excited to announce my cross-endorsement with @Marni4Council , a lawyer and activist running in District 3 to save tenants and small businesses from displacement, as well as return power back to the community with the final say in development issues.

My CM @StephenLevin33 sits on the Land Use committee that will vote on the Flushing rezoning. He has notoriously sat on the fence & then voted to rezone ALL proposals before his desk. Make sure your voices are heard, & use this spreadsheet to call/tweet!

Classic case of local media bowing down to the City & developer interests. Scrubbing an article from the internet is not only bad press practice, it reveals more than if it was left alone. #mediaintegrity

We must demand the resignation of Artem Prusayev immediately & have an inquiry into why officers keep brandishing deadly weapons at peaceful protesters. This is never acceptable. @NYPD84Pct @StephenLevin33 @cmlauriecumbo @NYPDShea

Interesting that they asked the woman who works for a councilmember who voted Yes, & who is known as the king of gentrification, to co-write this. There’s an OG in District 33, and I’m running to get rid of neoliberal austerity in all its forms. Don’t be fooled. @bklyner

We are seven women running for office in #Brooklyn . We are aligned on a City budget that divests from carceral systems and reinvests in our neighborhoods. #DefundNYPD , expand #ParticipatoryBudgeting , and a #HomesGuarantee .
