Fun at the NYC Dance Parade!

Did you know that New Yorkers have no way to call for a constitutional referendum? 🤔 In this episode of State Government 101, I explain one way New York is less democratic than other states and why we need a quicker way to amend the state constitution.

Did you know that our legislature actually *can* pass important bills in a timely manner? 🤯 In this episode of State Government 101: how a bill I co-authored passed in just 13 months, and why it’s so difficult for most legislation to make it through NY’s state legislature.

Earlier this May Day, I stood in solidarity with Sunrise Movement at Wall Street, where activists shut down business as usual and got arrested to demand that we tax the rich, abolish ICE, and secure free and fair elections.

Thanks to @maddow.bsky.social for covering last week's protest against ICE parking in NYC garages, organized by Chelsea Neighbors United, Hands Off NYC, 50501 NY, @riseandresist.bsky.social and @villagedems.bsky.social. 👇️

Until very recently, non-binary people weren’t eligible to run for some state offices in New York. My friend Émilia Decaudin and I wrote legislation that changed that – now I’m taking that same spirit of legislative creativity with me to Albany.

I’m excited to continue my series about Lower Manhattan’s living history with a chat with my good friend Johnny Dynell, a legend of the Downtown music and arts scene. Johnny has way more stories than can fit into a short video, but hopefully this gives you a fun taste.

Today I visited the protest outside of Delaney Hall detention center in Newark, NJ, and what I saw was jarring, even as someone who spent a week at ICE’s “baby jail” in Texas.

They say it takes a village to raise a child -- the same thing is true when it comes to running a campaign. Donate by May 11 to help me meet my fundraising goal, so I can spend less time making these videos and more time raising my kid and talking to voters!

State Government 101 Office Hours was a success! Thanks to everyone that came to chat about the New York State Legislature with me. If you have a question on the topic, I'm pretty sure I have an answer - so feel free to drop me a line!

Let me add some context here because I know how this can sound. This is not saying you don’t love your kids. And it’s definitely not saying you need to be endlessly calm or never get frustrated. Parenting is hard. You’re going to have moments where you’re short, where you snap, where you don’t
