Every year nearly 23,500 babies are #stillborn. We Can and MUST ado better to protect our moms and babies ! Shine a light on this maternal and family health issue
3 years ago, Congress voted to honor the officers who defended our democracy on January 6th with a memorial plaque in the Capitol.
Yet Republicans are ignoring the law and refuse to install it.
In its absence, we are hanging replicas—because heroism deserves more than silence.
Thank you District 5. It is the honor of a lifetime to continue as your Council Member! I look forward to four more years of serving the needs of our incredible community and am deeply grateful for all of your support.
It was great to be at the First Avenue street fair talking to constituents and joining our dedicated local Democratic clubs. Honored to have their support! 🗳️@FourFreedomsNYC@LexingtonDemsNY
February is a celebration of #BlackHistoryMonth to recognize the beautiful diversity and outstanding contributions, achievements and strength of Black Americans.
This month and every day, let us recommit to creating opportunity and advancing the promise of America for all.
Welcome home, Yarden, Keith and Ofer. 🎗️
Keith Siegel returns to his wife, Aviva, who was also held captive, while his mother passed away during his time in Hamas’ hands.
Ofer Calderon is home, reunited with his children who were also kidnapped on Oct 7. Only now can they begin their journey to recovery.
Yarden Bibas is free, yet his wife Shiri and two babies remain in captivity, their fate an agonizing uncertainty that we pray will end with their safe return.
Too many are still living in hell - and we will not rest until they are home.
