@BrianLehrer WEAK. There is no deal and the Democrats and federal workers went through all of this for nothing! So furious.

@BrianLehrer Hi Brian, can you ask @SenGillibrand what her reasoning for passing the Republican budget last month? It was the only chance Dems had to resist, and she rallied a few senators to cave.

MINNESOTA = one of the least restrictive states in the country for abortion care
Tim Walz put many of those protections in place as Gov.

Joe Biden has not only been a great president and a great legislative leader but he's a truly amazing human being. His decision of course was not easy, but he once again put his country, his party, and our future first.
Joe, today shows you are a true patriot and great American.

Kamala Harris for President/Democrats deserve a candidate who can lift the whole ticket, not drag it down to defeat. thenation.com/article/politi…

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

Thank you @JoeBiden for stepping aside, all for your service. Dems now need to unite and mobilize.

@BrianLehrer Am a lifelong Dem, Biden should step aside and let a younger Dem lead (Harris?). His leadership skills are waning, his communication suffering. We could win with much energy if a new candidate takes over.
English
@DrBiden Love the Bidens and thank you for your incredible service to this country. It’s time for President Biden to pass the torch. He can be the bridge! And bow out on a high note with so much dignity. We need this now, too much is at stake.

@SenGillibrand Just listening to Brian Lehrer, guess you’re anti-congestion pricing. Should we scrap an environmental plan that took years of studying, $500m + and a HUGE traffic benefit for the city that could roll out in other areas? For a few seats in LI? NY Dems betrayed NYC.
English
@BrianLehrer Go Liz Krueger! Save congestion pricing - I live in the zone (and also own a car) but public transportation is my main jam. I want cleaner air and better subways/busses!!
English
@Bobby4Brooklyn Thank you!! I live in the zone and support less traffic, cleaner air and more money for a properly working subway & bus system. I love the using the subway everyday (& I even own a car). I am pro-congestion pricing!

I'll be voting no.
There is a funding source - it’s called congestion pricing and it is supposed to take effect on June 30th.
Bernadette Hogan@bern_hogan
New: Source says the legislature is expected vote on a bill as soon as tonight that would commit $1B in state funding for the MTA. Legislature and gov are working towards a deal. Money would come from general fund/bonded out - still unclear.

Another Adams official expressing support for congestion pricing.

Public transit is the lifeblood of NYC and traffic is choking our city streets. Congestion pricing is the only policy that can tackle both in an equitable and comprehensive way. The general fund, PMT, existing taxes that go into MTA are unsustainable, not enough, or regressive.

@lizkimtweets Thanks Liz, I just wrote to my assembly person & state senator to ask for their support for congestion pricing if it’s not too late! I am a straphanger and car owner who lives in the zone. I want cleaner air, less traffic & a 21st city with a great subway & bus system!!
