For riders with disabilities & seniors, missing a paratransit stop can mean confusion, stress, or being left far from where they need to be. Today, the Assembly passed bill A2132, sponsored by Asw. Linda S. Carter, to require paratransit operators to announce every scheduled stop for passengers.

I hit the streets of Seattle looking for someone with $50 million in a trust fund. Why? Because many of the people who do have that much are using complicated trusts to dodge estate taxes. My Fair Trusts for Fiscal Responsibility Act closes the loophole. Let's pass it.
Got bored, made a video. Thought it was easier than typing out my thoughts on this. Key thing is most people don't see the majority of work which advocacy achieves. It isn't quick though, and that is hard. It also involves having to sway people to your side, which is even harder a lot of the time.

Too many New Yorkers, especially in rural counties, struggle to find dental care closer to home because there aren’t enough providers. My bill, now law, allows dental hygienists to collaborate with dentists and deliver care without direct supervision. This change will help expand access.
I’m running for Congress because I want to see someone like me in office. I don’t want to see another career politician with a law degree and a political background in office. I wanna see someone who is from the trenches. Someone who understands the daily grind. Be the change you want to see!

There’s absolutely no way they can play Evan Carter over this guy when Wyatt Langford returns. Alejandro Osuna comes through with the go-ahead RBI single with two outs to give the Rangers a 3-2 lead over the Cardinals.
