    We are deeply disturbed & concerned about widespread reports of attacks against women in NYC that have been confirmed by the NYPD. We're calling on the NYPD for an immediate and comprehensive investigation into these incidents with transparent updates to the public.

    I am honored to be elected by my colleagues to serve as the Co-Chair of the Women's Caucus, alongside @CMFarahLouis W/ the City Council being a female majority, there has never been a more important time to highlight that every issue is a women's issue. (1/2)

    The neighborhoods in my district and throughout the borough need urgent solutions to the decades of non-existent transit infrastructure in the Bronx. It’s time we work together to do more for our borough. Read my opinion piece with @CityAndStateNY

    (1/3) Today I introduced my first bill at the @NYCCouncil Stated Mtg! Reso 65: To restore Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) eligibility for those currently in prison. Restoring TAP is at the intersection of education equity & racial justice for our communities.
