Sally is a mom, grandma, and former teacher who’s gearing up to feed 13 people over the holidays. An Inflation Refund check of up to $500 would go a long way for her family and millions of other New Yorkers. Let’s make it happen.

The federal travel ban is just the latest form of cruelty from Washington that targets our Haitian American community. Yesterday, I visited Little Haiti to let them know that New York stands with them — and that we always will.

Most Americans over 65 rely on Medicare. This isn’t about Democrats or Republicans. Messing with seniors’ health care is just cruel and depraved.

For young moms like Mandy, a $500 check could make all the difference. Prices are going up and New York families deserve a break. My proposed Inflation Refund would ease the stress of grocery and living costs that come with raising a family.

We didn’t just invest $20 million in Chinatown, we’ve invested time and love to this community. Great to see such vibrancy today. New businesses are popping up, Lunar New Year was a huge success, and the future is brighter than ever in Lower Manhattan.

Too many ultra-wealthy second homes sit empty most of the year, part of our skyline but not part of this city. Anyone treating New York City like an investment should be contributing to what makes it valuable.

Last week, I received a request to extradite a New York doctor who provided life-saving abortion medication to a patient. Today, I’ve sent a letter to Louisiana with a clear message: I will not be signing the request. Not now. Not ever.

Louisiana is attempting to prosecute a New York doctor for providing reproductive health care. After Roe was overturned, I signed laws to protect patients & doctors from exactly this type of action. We will not comply with an extradition request. We will remain a safe harbor.
