    Thank you to all the residents of District 30 including Maspeth, Middle Village, Glendale, Rego Park, Elmhurst and Ridgewood, as well as the former residents of Woodhaven and Woodside, for allowing me to serve you over the past 8 years and for more than 30 years as a civic

    There’s one clear choice here, folks — and that’s @CurtisSliwa. He’s the only candidate ready to lead this city back to safety, sanity, and common sense.

    I said it in today’s @NYDailyNews and I’ll say it again: Andrew Cuomo is not the answer. He left office in disgrace, cost taxpayers millions, and ran social experiments that made New Yorkers less safe. We deserve better. @CurtisSliwa is our guy for mayor. Read my op-ed ⬇️

    This isn’t a campaign based on party politics: it’s about common sense and saving our state. The status quo doesn’t work. I’m a lifelong Democrat and I’m backing @leemzeldin. Read my oped to see why.
    Lee Zeldin will provide the leadership New York is missing from Kathy Hochul

    It’s no surprise that Uber and Lyft are bankrolling lobbyists to block e-bike registration and ram through congestion pricing. They want you out of your car and into their vehicles, profiting off the misery of hardworking New Yorkers. (1/2)

    Governor Hochul’s move to pause congestion pricing before the election to help her party win, knowing it’s unpopular, only to reinstate it afterward when her party lost, is a blatant political move and a shameless betrayal of New Yorkers. (1/2)

    Driving is a privilege, not a right. This weekend in Brooklyn, a mother and her two daughters were killed. Her son is in critical condition. A father and husband is left shattered. Why? Because a woman with 90+ violations and a suspended license felt entitled to speed and

    While New Yokers are stressed that this could bankrupt them or push them out of the city they love, these clowns, many of whom are paid advocates, are celebrating the demise of Manhattan. How did we let lobbyists and transplants dictate how we live?

    I’ve never seen this much outrage over a NY issue like the congestion scam tax—it shows how tone-deaf politicians are. NYers, save this energy for citywide & council elections. Except for a few, none deserve your vote. In 2026, vote Tyrant Hochul & the lunatics in Albany out!

    Last night’s debate proved what my constituents and I already knew: @CurtisSliwa is the best choice to be our next mayor. Mamdani is a radical communist who will wreck what’s left of this city. Cuomo already did the damage we’ve been trying to fix for years. We don’t need an

    .@CurtisSliwa is the only candidate talking about the issues that matter most. Tonight he’ll show again why he’s the best candidate for mayor. Good luck Curtis!

    This is damning: an elected official with illegal tints and out-of-state plates, not legally registered, using his official title to evade the law. Worse yet, he lied about the exchange until NYPD set the record straight. CM Salaam should resign as Public Safety Chair.

    Unbelievable timing: just hours after a woman was senselessly burned alive, and two people were stabbed, one fatally. Kathy Hochul’s incompetence is costing lives—she needs to leave public office immediately before more New Yorkers suffer.

    In March, I took action to make our subways safer for the millions of people who take the trains each day.   Since deploying the @NationalGuardNY to support @NYPDnews and @MTA safety efforts and adding cameras to all subway cars, crime is going down, and ridership is going up.

    The sudden wave of negative, concocted stories and clips ripped out of context about Curtis Sliwa tells you exactly what the powers-that-be are afraid of: a Mayor @CurtisSliwa who is for the people, not the insiders. After back-to-back debate wins and momentum growing across the
