I am devastated to hear of the tragic loss of Pierre Damas Bel. My prayers are with his loved ones and the Haitian community in their mourning.
Pierre, like many before him, came to America to reunite with his family. He graduated from high school, was a celebrated student
It is my privilege to wish my Trini-American neighbors at home and Trinidadian and Tobagonian friends across the diaspora and world a most happy 64th Independence Day! Their beautiful island nation hosts a storied history, rich culture, and truly special people, and I am so proud
This march did not start with us.
63 years past the first March on Washington, I was proud to carry the torch lit by heroes of our history like Dr. King and John Lewis, as we confront the same fight against injustice and inequality that they devoted their lives to defeating.

This ruling is an important victory for voting rights and the integrity of our elections.
We cannot allow the Trump administration to cheat and undermine our democracy.
I am devastated to hear of the tragic loss of Pierre Damas Bel. My prayers are with his loved ones and the Haitian community in their mourning.
Pierre, like many before him, came to America to reunite with his family. He graduated from high school, was a celebrated student athlete, served as a JROTC lieutenant, and had plans to attend college in the Fall.
His death, which followed the theft of his TPS and the pain of being forced to wear a GPS ankle monitor, is a heartbreaking reminder of the real human consequences of cruel and grotesque immigration policy.

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!
