Third Avenue has been a source of tremendous fear and grief for our community over recent years. This responsive plan will be a major step towards improving street safety in Sunset Park. The redesign will start at the most problematic portion of the Avenue, ensuring that local students and families will be able to cross the street with ease of mind. It will also address the needs of our Industrial Businesses who require access parking. I am excited to see this full project come to fruition and grateful to the Mayor and those at the Department of Transportation for prioritizing the needs of our community. NYC DOT Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani

Three of my bills were heard at the Schomburg Center Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, New York Public Library on September 28. It was incredible to see the outpouring of solidarity from our NYC diaspora.

But the solidarity must continue. Voice your support for Resos 494, 27, and 28 to end colonial rule, financial disempowerment, vulture fund exploitation, ecological devastation, and mass displacement.

Thank you to Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for voicing your support, alongside all the amazing organizations and leaders who testified.
