I'm the youngest member of the NYS Senate. I'm a young black male. I cannot, in good conscience vote for any budget without #RaiseTheAge

- Not sure in what world this is acceptable in. @NYPDnews we should know who was responsible for this action. This is unacceptable.NYPD officers just drove an SUV into a crowd of human beings. They could‘ve killed them, &we don’t know how many they injured. NO ONE gets to slam an SUV through a crowd of human beings. @NYCMayor these officers need to be brought to justice, not dismissed w/“internal reviews.”
- @NYGovCuomo- as you’ve noted- vaccine equity is critical. That’s why the entire Bronx Delegation- Federal, State and City- have all signed on to this letter requesting you assist us to immediately obtain more vaccines in our borough- the hardest hit in NYC by COVID-19.
- Of course no one should worry about @AOC’s hair. I’m just mad there’s no coverage of me and @zellnor4ny’s weekly barbershop visits, our waves spinning and our proclivity for velvet durags and Murray’s and Nu Nile hair grease. #alllinesmatter #wavecaucus
- Yes, @NYPDShea- the way to run a police department & fight crime is to cherry-pick examples that actually don’t support your assertion- especially as it relates to repeat offenders. Meaningful dialogue about public safety > false rhetoric not backed by data. But tweet on though.Insanity. No other way to describe the resulting crime that has flowed from disastrous bail reform law. #victims nypost.com/2021/10/02/nyc… via @nypost
- We didn’t talk about 500K vs dinner but it was great to spend time building with @sc today- talking about criminal justice, economic empowerment & various efforts that @RocNation has undertaken in our city & state. And yes, I did indeed recite/refer to numerous Jay-Z lyrics, lol.
- Inspiration from my daughters. At first, I was just recording them having fun playing hoops. But this happened! Believe in yourself & surround yourself with people who are just as excited as you for your success- if not more excited as you. #baileygirls #believeinyourself
00:00 - All about the Benjamins about to be played on a statewide level! As we reimagine New York, we continue to move forward with the best. Huge congrats to my brother @NYSenBenjamin and his wonderful family on this well-deserved appointment as our new Lieutenant Governor! #HarlemWorld
- Today I celebrate sunrise, a new day, ice cream cake, free birthday beverages, Knicks free agency, video games, sneakers, the elevation of friends, those who believe in me, and most importantly, my family. Shout out to the Bailey Bunch! Celebrating life! 39 years is a blessing!
- This is quite literally, life or death. @NYCMayor I implore you to take action on this critical issue. We can’t flatten the curve if we ignore certain portions of the curve.
- Thanks to our 62 county champion, our great U.S. Senate Majority Leader @chuckschumer for coming uptown to the Royal Coach to talk about many things- #CancelStudentDebt, the help he’s given to our businesses, faith based institutions, the Knicks & how I became a Bronx Met fan..
