As New York prepares to welcome visitors from across the globe for the World Cup, my office is reminding hotels and lodges of their responsibility to post safety information and help protect people from human trafficking.
A hotline card in the right place can help save a life.

- My office and a bipartisan coalition secured $36.5 million from @cvspharmacy after the company defrauded Medicaid. Our Medicaid funds should support health care for those in need, not boost the profits of big corporations like CVS. I'll continue to root out Medicaid fraud.
- Xponential, a fitness company, misled its franchise owners with false promises about location openings and caused them to lose money. We secured $3.9 million from Xponential for these businesses, and I'll keep fighting for the success of small businesses across New York.

- We won our case against the Trump administration for trying to destroy the H-1B visa program. Thousands with these visas serve New Yorkers as doctors, teachers, and other skilled workers. I'll keep fighting to protect them and our immigrant communities.
- I'm suing Rapid Ruling, an online arbitration platform, for working with predatory lenders to mislead small businesses, leave them with crushing debt, and ensure lenders won their disputes. We're fighting for justice for the small business owners and workers hurt by this scheme.
- I’m grateful for our law enforcement this evening after the horrific stabbings at Penn Station. My heart is with the victims and their families and I’m thankful they are expected to make full recoveries.
- Happy Pride, Queens! Had a blast with New Yorkers today marching in the Queens Pride Parade!
- We won a court order protecting billions of dollars in @USDA funding as our lawsuit continues. My office will keep fighting to protect New Yorkers and stop the federal government from punishing our state for refusing to bend.I'm suing the Trump administration for illegally threatening to withhold billions in critical @USDA funding unless states comply with their political priorities. This would cause chaos for states that need these funds to feed families, support farmers, and keep communities safe.
- On #GunViolenceAwarenessDay, we remember those we lost to gun violence and the families who are forever changed. We need to end senseless gun violence in our country by advocating for commonsense gun laws. Now.
- I'm proud to see @SenGonzalezNY's and Assemblymember @AlexBores' bill to protect children from the potential harms of AI chatbots has passed the legislature! This will allow New York to continue to lead the nation in keeping our kids safe online.My bill, S9051B to prohibit AI companions from using manipulative features that encourage emotional dependency & other unsafe practices putting minors at risk PASSED. As this technology becomes more integrated into our lives, NY is putting safety & accountability first.
- The One Fair Price Act passed the legislature in New York! This is a big victory in our fight to ban surveillance pricing and help make life more affordable in New York. Thank you, @AMEmeritaTorres and @RachelMayNY for your work on this bill. Let's get it over the finish line!
- Lenders like Yellowstone and Richmond Capital prey on small businesses by disguising loans as cash advances with massive, illegal interest rates. I joined @MorePerfectUS to discuss how it's up to state AGs to step in to hold these bad actors accountable.
