Father. Husband. New Yorker. Democrat. Reformer. Running for mayor to bring vision, experience + competence to NYC.
- I, for one, will not send undocumented New Yorkers to Rikers for selling churros.You know what I hear over and over again - that NYC is not enforcing rules against unlicensed street vendors. I’m for increasing licenses but we should do more for the retailers who are paying rent and trying to survive.
- My beloved mother passed away this morning as a result of complications from the coronavirus. This is a heartbreaking moment for me, my wife, and our entire family.
- Direct cash payments to struggling Americans is smart policy and the right thing to do in a time of crisis. What was an under-the-radar concept is now in the political mainstream because folks like @AndrewYang aggressively fought for it. This will bring people real relief.'Americans need cash now:' Coronavirus has lawmakers calling for UBI cnb.cx/2Wt1pUu
- I am disgusted by the anti-Semitic attack on @BernieSanders. This is a man who lost family in the Holocaust—to raise a Nazi flag against him is absolutely appalling. We must condemn hate and white supremacy at every turn.
- Yes, actually I can.
- Thinking of my mom, Arlene Stringer-Cuevas. She was a trailblazer and a real force, who loved New York more than anyone, and devoted her life to making it better for everyone. She died a year ago today due to COVID-19.
- Tweets are great. I’m divesting $4 billion from the fossil fuel industry. And here’s my detailed plan to combat the climate crisis. #solutionsnotgimmicks stringerformayor.com/wp-content/upl…Making New York City more resilient to climate change is literally a matter of life and death - we know another storm and flood will come and many New Yorkers yet live in vulnerable unprotected low-lying areas.
- No New Yorker should wait longer than six minutes for a subway or bus ride. Send me to City Hall to revolutionize our transportation system and deliver the world-class transit NYC needs.
- I agree. Upzoning makes sense in Soho.
- Does NYC need 100% renewable public power? Yes Yes Yes 👇 👇 👇
- Cracking down on street vendors is part of the criminalization of poverty. It’s not just a moral failure, it’s a policy decision that would have disastrous consequences for our undocumented neighbors. We can’t have a leader who tweets first and thinks second.
- New York needs Democrats in Congress who think big and challenge the status quo. @JamaalBowmanNY is determined to roll up his sleeves and fight for an America that works for everyone—not just the privileged and the powerful. I’m proud to endorse his campaign for Congress.
