Kashif Hussain

Ramadan is a time of solidarity. We pray for the safety of our families and for peace. We pray for an end to violence and hate, and an embrace of empathy, understanding, and the unity felt in breaking the fast together. Thank you to everyone who made our Iftaar possible.

I am proud to support @EmmittSklar as he runs for Male District Leader in New York State Assembly District 44. Emmitt is a thoughtful, capable, and empathetic leader who brings the experience & perspective needed to represent a vibrant and diverse district effectively. Let's Go!

It’s a new era for New York City—and a new era for New York City DOT! We will complete the redesign of McGuinness Boulevard. nyc.gov/mayors-office/…

Kudos to Kashif Hussain, Deputy Public Advocate for Infrastructure & Environmental Justice, named among the Top 65 Influential Muslims of New York. This list highlights service and leadership across the state, and a civically engaged, vibrant community. americasmuslimnetwork.com/kashif-hussain/

Our catch basin cleaning bill is GRATE! It will help to keep our streets safe and subways dry by improving catch basin cleaning. And @nyccouncil is voting on it today. P.S. Learn about the Adopt-a-Catch Basin pilot, which we hope will grow: nyc.gov/site/dep/whats…

Proud to work on this important legislation!

It was a great day to launch the "Ferry-zzano" with @NYCferry—with the St. George route now connecting Staten Island, Brooklyn and Manhattan. Deputy Public Advocate Kashif Hussain proudly celebrated expanded transit options for Staten Island. Every borough deserves equal access.

Youth vote surged in New York City. Was it a blip or a paradigm shift? gothamist.com/news/youth-vot…

"There is nowhere in our borough–or anywhere across the city–where drivers or pedestrians are safer when their vision is blocked." Daylighting opens up visibility & makes intersections safer, Staten Island needs this too! @Kashif4Progress @JumaaneWilliams bit.ly/4nkbtc2

"Decades of data and study show that daylighting saves lives." NEW: Deputy Public Advocate @Kashif4Progress writes in @siadvance on the need to implement universal daylighting, a street safety policy to improve visibility for drivers and pedestrians. silive.com/opinion/2025/0…

Kudos to Deputy Public Advocate Kashif Hussain, who's among @CityAndStateNY's 2025 Trailblazers in Transportation! From better bike lanes to more accessible subways, Hussain works to keep the city moving forward—whatever form your commute may take. #kashif-hussain" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">cityandstateny.com/power-lists/20…

Your Ramadan tour and mosque visits that you point to @JeniferRajkumar at the debate tonight is performative at best. It’s a non-starter for Muslim New Yorkers that you didn’t call for a ceasefire in Palestine. We are w/ @JumaaneWilliams as seen by endorsement after endorsement.

@NYSenatorRivera Estimado Honorable Senador @NYSenatorRivera, Zohran ha demostrado tanto talento, habilidades, liderazgo y energía en esta campaña que merece su apoyo. Colóquelo en el primer lugar.

While I’ve made no endorsement yet, I believe this is the type of quality outreach that needs to be done by every candidate to the Latino community.

We can support new transit technology AND keep people safe. Deputy Public Advocate Kashif Hussain joined an important e-bike safety panel by @propelbike and Bosch eBike Systems. Some of the change we've called for is here; learn about E-Bike Trade-In's: ebike-trade.nyc.gov

New York City's new Americans are making the city a better place. It was an honor to uplift the accomplishments of the New American Women's and Youth Forums of NY, highlighting youth and women of South Asian descent who are empowering their communities with civic engagement.

Congestion Pricing is in effect today. As of January 5, 2025, vehicles entering the Congestion Relief Zone in Manhattan—local streets and avenues at or below 60 Street—will be charged a toll. More via @MTA, incl. information on discounts and exemptions: congestionreliefzone.mta.info

JUST IN: Ahead of a holiday season expected to see rising trends of e-bikes and other micromobility devices given as gifts, our office released a new analysis on steps that both individuals and government can take to keep riders safe. Read more: advocate.nyc.gov/press/2024s-ho…

We joined advocates and grieving families Sunday for a somber World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims vigil. Too many New Yorkers have been lost. We have won a few fights, such as the @mcguinness_safe campaign, but we must keep pushing to #EndTrafficViolence. #WDoR2024

It was an honor to bring greetings to Gurdwara Baba Makhan Shah Lubana for the 555th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. The world also recently marked the 40th anniversary of the Sikh genocide. We must never forget about these tragedies, to ensure they never happen again.
