I’ve always believed that every new chapter in a woman’s life should be cause for celebration. Yet, as a woman who has confronted it herself, I can personally attest to the stigmatization and isolation women undergoing menopause feel nearly every day. For too long, we have been
Vote like our rights are under attack, because they are.
Vote like authoritarians want to stop you, because they do.
Vote like the future is on the line, because it is.
On Tuesday, VOTE!
Mental illnesses already take too much from those burdened by them, and yet, now the Trump Administration believes it should take their citizenship, too.
Here is the truth: Phillip James is a native son of Florida. ICE agents, who know full well he was not born in Jamaica,
Dolores Huerta was a woman of unparalleled conviction, unshakeable courage, and, perhaps above all, unlimited compassion. Her work as Co-Founder of United Farm Workers and throughout her 96 years transformed our nation’s labor movement and fundamentally altered the course of the
I’ve always believed that every new chapter in a woman’s life should be cause for celebration. Yet, as a woman who has confronted it herself, I can personally attest to the stigmatization and isolation women undergoing menopause feel nearly every day. For too long, we have been left to face our menopause symptoms alone, without the proper guidance or support we need to embrace all life has in store. That is why I introduced the bipartisan Menopause Awareness Resolution to permanently establish October as Menopause Awareness Month, so that we might begin to break the stigma, build solidarity, and achieve an America where no woman navigating menopause does it by herself. We should not have to suffer in silence just to make it easier for men to ignore our pain. It’s time to speak up, speak out, and stand with our sisters at every step of their menopause journeys. It’s time we start celebrating this Menopause Awareness Month!

Charlie Kirk’s horrific murder was a tragedy, and anyone who says otherwise has no place in public service.
However, I will not pretend to respect the harmful ideologies he proudly held, nor will I honor a man who built a career out of dishonoring Americans like me.
I voted no.
Jimmy Kimmel’s firing was an absurd abuse of power – that’s why I joined with @repfrankpallone to demand an FCC Oversight hearing IMMEDIATELY so we can have an opportunity to hold Chairman Brendan Carr accountable for weaponizing the FCC against free speech and expression.
Trump is hellbent on whitewashing the African American experiences in this country. No matter how many signs or exhibits this administration removes from our nation’s museums or national parks, our history will not be silenced.
The American people have a right to know history in its entirety: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly — and we have it all. History will record the fact that, on the orders of Donald Trump in the year 2025, all these historical artifacts were removed to distort the past to appease denialists.
As we mark the start of Hispanic Heritage Month, please join me in celebrating our beloved Latino neighbors!
Now more than ever, they deserve to know how deeply we value their cultures and contributions.
Now more than ever, they deserve to know we will always stand with them.
Donald Trump and the Republican Party are determined to drag this country back to a time when Black voices were shut out of the democratic process.
We will not allow it.
The stakes are far too high.
And this fight is far from over.
As we pause today to remember the lives lost on #September11th – a day that forever changed our city, our nation, and the way we live – join me in honoring the first responders, families, and communities who experienced unimaginable loss.
Like all proud daughters of New York City, I will never forget where I was on that fateful day, and the countless stories of bravery and unity that emerged from such a dark moment in time.
Wishing all of our city’s students, parents, teachers, and faculty a very happy First Day of School!
Another year, another special West Indian Day Parade alongside our dear friends and neighbors from across the diaspora!
Our cultures and communities are unlike any others, and that is why I am truly blessed to call myself a woman of Caribbean descent.
One Love, everybody!
