This is actually a big deal. 3rd party audits were a huge industry sticking point against the NY RAISE Act last year. We thought these audits were doable then, and thrilled to see @OpenAI now come around and agree. Looking forward to passing my 3rd party audit bill in NY next!

OpenAI is endorsing Illinois bill SB 315, which requires safety reports (similar to laws in California and New York) and third party audits of AI labs. They say all of their state AI policy work these days is in the effort of creating a "consistent, nationwide framework."

This is a canary in the coal mine. The heavy-handed hegemony of the tech industry, AI and social media platforms will be a large issue in November and front-and-center in '28. politico.com/news/2026/02/0…

Another major endorsement for @AlexBores, cementing him as the labor candidate in the race for NY-12, building on a coalition that already includes @DC37nyc @RWDSU @CWADistrict1 @nysut @PSC_CUNY @UFT and others—the broadest labor support of any candidate in the race.

I'm deeply honored to have @NYSAFLCIO's endorsement. The 2.5 million New Yorkers who are members of AFL-CIO unions are the people who teach our kids, build our buildings, staff our hospitals, drive our trains, and keep this state running. New Yorkers know that the economy is not working for them: higher costs, stagnant wages, and a Trump administration that works for the highest bidder instead of working people. I'm running for Congress to change that. Together with the working people of New York, we will.

Data + tech can save lives when we use it the right way. We’re inspired by these efforts to organize fragmented speeding data into tools that help identify and stop the worst repeat offenders and bring accountability to our streets. The Stop Super Speeders bill is a smart, targeted approach that leverages innovative tools to improve safety and protect New Yorkers. We’re proud to support this legislation and the innovators working to make our streets safer for everyone. 🚦📊 Read more here: nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/01/29/how…

I joined ARC Rochester to discuss a bill I co-sponsor with @Sen_Gounardes, which would require state approval before another state’s National Guard is deployed in NY. This is a common-sense measure to protect our state sovereignty and I'll be pushing for its passage during the next legislative session. Bill info here: nysenate.gov/legislation/bi…

People want AI to make their lives better, not put it at risk. That's why @AlexBores and I introduced the RAISE Act. Our bill requires the biggest AI companies to create safety and security plans, protecting us from harmful uses of AI while allowing beneficial uses to flourish.

This bill recognizes that in order to win the AI race, our AI needs to be both safe and trustworthy. In this case, pro-safety is the pro-innovation position. (2/4)

This is a BFD and now courts agree with our argument that states can protect kids from the harms of social media algorithms without violating the First Amendment. This is the whole premise of the NY Safe for Kids Act. Great job @AGRobBonta! yahoo.com/news/articles/…

Was talking the other day about how @AlexBores is one of the few in office who understands AI - both mechanically and from a risk perspective. The RAISE Act is a huge deal and it's awesome to see this work with @agounardes highlighted to a national audience!
Alex Bores@AlexBores

Honored that @TIME named me one of the top 100 most influential people in AI for my work with @agounardes on the RAISE Act. Never thought I'd share a list with "Godfather of AI" @Yoshua_Bengio, @elder_plinius, and his Holiness @Pontifex Pope Leo XIV. #Time100AI

Housing bans in blue states are a threat to democracy. While NY and CA are shrinking, red states are growing—and shifting power in the electoral college. The only way to reverse this is for New York to build housing.

The tallest subway station in NYC is finally getting an elevator. 🛗 The Smith-9th St station in Gowanus is nearly 90' high. Soon, you'll be able to take an elevator to get there. It’s simple: The subway belongs to all New Yorker, and it should be accessible to all New Yorkers.

Big news in our push for AI safety! @gralston, formerly of Y Combinator, endorses the RAISE Act sponsored by @AlexBores and I! This law requires companies developing the most powerful AI systems to create safety protocols to mitigate risk of catastrophic harms. No brainer.
