Jabez Chakraborty, who has no prior criminal convictions, was shot multiple times by NYPD officers and is now fighting to recover. Like every New Yorker represented by our office, Mr. Chakraborty will receive a robust and vigorous defense. More: thecity.nyc/2026/02/23/pol…

#JabezChakraborty needed care - care his family tried to get multiple times. Instead, he was shot by NYPD in his own home. “The city has failed a family that has tried to make every right move.” -attorney Shanaz Chowdhury Great article from @Gregbsmithnyc @THECITYNY

In the weeks before their son was shot by NYPD officers, the Chakraborty family did everything they could to get him treatment. They were forsaken at every turn. buff.ly/jdJKnSN

It is more vital than ever for the board to provide urgently needed relief to the more than two million working-class New Yorkers who live in rent-stabilized homes by freezing rents. nytimes.com/2026/02/18/nyr…

Temporary rental assistance helps families today— but real housing stability means sustained funding and more vouchers to protect tenants at risk. gothamist.com/news/nyc-still…

Now more than ever, it's important to recognize and, most importantly, fix policies that have long driven mass incarceration while disproportionately impacting Black people.

New York is blessed to have Stanley Richards as Commissioner DOC.  Rikers Island is a human rights disaster. An institution that denies rights, healthcare, dignity & does very little to prepare our neighbors to come home. Few understand this better than Stanley Richards. 1/3

Excited to have @nycprobation led by a committed & experienced Commissioner that will center services, humanity and opportunity. Looking forward to moving far away from the horrible and regressive policies of Juanita Holmes and return to an agency that believes in second chances
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor

Today, I appointed Sharun Goodwin to lead @nycprobation, Yume Kitasei to lead @NYCDCAS, and Lisa Garcia to lead @NYCWater. New York should work for the people who keep it running. These leaders share a commitment to dignity, fairness, and accountability in government—and to delivering real results for working-class New Yorkers. From public safety and justice, to supporting our public workforce, to protecting our environment, they will help move our city toward a future that puts people first.
