Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble. A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments. We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.

Republicans have been trying to deflect and diminish Trump’s close relationship with Jeffrey Epstein by delaying the release of the Epstein files. But now they can’t hide. It’s time for the truth to come to light and for the DOJ to release the files.


Starbucks employees have long fought against consistently unpredictable schedules, short staffing, low pay, and unfair labor practices. Today, @SBWorkersUnited is striking to demand progress in stalled negotiations. Solidarity✊🏽


This Veterans Day, we extend our gratitude to our veterans in The Bronx, Queens, and beyond for their service. Congress has a duty to protect those who defend us. That’s why we will continue to fight for the health care and housing services our veterans earned.


Victoria’s husband has cystic fibrosis. Without health insurance, his medication costs $300,000 per year. Republicans’ failure to extend ACA subsidies means that they won't be able to afford their insurance. These are the stakes for working people in this fight. We can't cave.

Nobody in Upstate New York should go hungry. But the Trump Administration made a choice — to put politics ahead of people and leave working families without the food they need. @RepAOC and I are demanding they reverse course and protect SNAP for the seniors, kids, and veterans…

The Trump Administration has the power to fund SNAP in November, but is refusing to use it, choosing instead to starve seniors, veterans, and children. I proudly joined my New York colleagues in urging @USDA to exercise its legal authority and ensure SNAP benefits are funded.

In 2 days, Donald Trump will cut off SNAP benefits for more than 3 million New Yorkers. Not because @USDA doesn't have the money, but because he thinks starving people helps him politically. @RepRileyNY and I led a letter demanding that Trump reverse course and fund SNAP now.

The Penn Station Access project will shorten commute times and offer new routes to critical access points for everyday working people. @RepRitchie and I are urging Amtrak to ensure that the project is delivered on time and not delayed to 2030.

Trump’s decision to block food assistance for 3 million New Yorkers is cruel and unlawful. Today, I joined my NY colleagues to demand this administration stop playing politics with people's lives and use its authority to fund SNAP in November.

The Trump administration has a rainy day fund that will keep SNAP from expiring in November. Trump is refusing to use it. Funding SNAP isn't a choice he can make. It's a legal obligation. @USDA must release the funds and stop punishing the American people.

Breaking News: Roughly two dozen states sued the Trump administration over its refusal to fund food stamps during the government shutdown, seeking to spare roughly 42 million people from hunger and financial hardship starting Nov. 1. nyti.ms/47ve50b

Republicans are trafficking the lie that this shutdown is because Democrats want to give undocumented immigrants free health care. That's not true, and it's not the law.
