Mahtab For NY AD 24 🌎🌹🗽

A message from the team of Chuck Park: 

We have confirmed that Chuck Park was arrested by the NYPD Strategic Response Group alongside fellow demonstrators while peacefully protesting with Sunrise Movement during a May Day civil rally for action near Wall Street.  More than 100 New Yorkers participated in the demonstration outside the New York Stock Exchange. Chuck was exercising his right to peaceful protest in support of working people—values that have always been at the core of his campaign. 

For too long, our economic system has prioritized billionaires and corporate interests over the workers and union members who keep New York City running. Chuck stands with those demanding a fairer economy. It’s time to tax the rich and ensure that billionaires finally pay their fair share.

What we saw in court was the Democratic machine squeezing out a grassroots campaign. What's concerning is how afraid my opponent is of hearing from the people who work for her and - most importantly - her own constituents.

Proudly posting your war crimes is not normal.

A New York City councilwoman is publicly fantasizing about killing me, and somehow I'm the threat..

Last night, Israeli forces intercepted and boarded a humanitarian aid flotilla bound for Gaza in international waters off the coast of Greece — unlawfully detaining more than 175 people, including several New Yorkers. My team has been in direct contact with State and Federal partners as we work to confirm the whereabouts and conditions of these New Yorkers. This is a brazen violation of international law. Those detained must be released.

Let's talk the New York Comptroller race. The comptroller is responsible for managing the $250 billion state pension fund, auditing government spending, and more. I support Raj Goyle, an insurgent taking on longtime incumbent Tom DiNapoli. First, on Raj: I met him a decade ago through money and politics work, and have worked with him on Citizens-United related issues, and on Section 230 reform (the law that has been sometimes interpreted to give big tech blanket immunity. He founded and ran Phone Free New York, putting his full energy behind getting the bell-to-bell ban on smartphones in K-12 schools. He also served on the board of the State Innovation Exchange (SIX) a national network that connects progressive state legislators. In 2015 we both worked to try to get Ali Najmi elected to the City Council in Queens. He has been unambiguous about divesting from foreign bonds, and not funding Netanyahu's war crimes with New York money. He has committed to fully divesting from fossil fuels and redirecting those billions into clean energy, renewable infrastructure. And while I like and respect both Drew Warshaw and Adem Bunkeddeko, Goyle is far and away better positioned to win. This is not ranked choice, and we're talking about taking on an incumbent. I have genuine fondness for Tom DiNapoli. It may sound small, but back in 2014, when people were still genuinely afraid of Andrew Cuomo, Tom stood next to me at a parade under my sign. In 2014, very few people were doing that, scared of a call from Percoco. But I deeply disagree with how DiNapoli is currently using (and not using) the awesome power of the Comptroller's office. On not using: we need real oversight of the Public Service Commission and utilities hikes. On using: the pension fund's investment in Palantir and through it, entanglement with ICE, is a direct conflict with everything I believe about our obligations to each other as New Yorkers. Raj will get us out of funding Palantir, and make sure our investments reflect New York values.

Incredible: The @JeniferRajkumar campaign was so brazen in their fraudulent petitions scheme that they even forged Queens Chronicle editor @kristengwrites's signature. qchron.com/editions/queen…

.@Ali_Najmi said it best: WE'RE ON THE BALLOT!! New Yorkers are clear: we are ready for progressive leadership in the Democratic Party that actually uses its power to fight back. Let's go.

She was the first to speak out against Andrew Cuomo. Now some of his biggest donors are flooding Tuesday's special election with money to stop her. That tells you everything about who the progressive choice is: @LindseyBoylan. nysfocus.com/2026/04/27/cuo…

BREAKING: The work in electing truly progressive candidates to City government is not done! On Tuesday April 28th there is a special election for council district 3 and NYCC is proud to endorse a brave, principled, and experienced community leader in @LindseyBoylan for that seat

.@RitchieTorres is a sellout. He took a MAX OUT check from the CEO of Palantir. Together, they’re helping ICE, denying the Genocide of the Palestinian people and think that people are "useful idiots.” Ritchie needs to return the CEO's check NOW! We see right through his act, it’s time for a new Congressman in NY15. Join us: michaelblakeforcongress.com/donate

Israel destroyed the statue of Jesus Christ in the Christian village of Debel, South Lebanon. Now they’re bulldozing the solar panels that provide electricity and water. Not military targets. Critical infrastructure. This is the deliberate targeting of civilian life.
