Big-City Mayors

It is reprehensible that the current operators at Sunset Community Garden barred some of their fellow New Yorkers from a city-owned public space because of their beliefs — and specifically tried to bar those who believe in a state of…

There is no place for hate in New York City, and our community gardens should be safe, inclusive, and welcoming spaces for all New Yorkers.

[Trump] doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. And as a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not good enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil and…

We can't stand back and watch this democracy disappear district by district all across the country.

A political agenda of provoking fear and terror

We know that there is no borough that will be free from Trump’s cruelty.

To defend our autonomy. We know that our access to democracy is different than anywhere else in America.

We have followed the law. In reference to the U.S. Attorney General’s order, there is no statute that conveys the District’s personnel authority to a federal official.

Let us be clear about what the law requires during a Presidential declared emergency: it requires the mayor of Washington, DC to provide the services of the Metropolitan Police Department for federal purposes at the request of the…

Today marks the fifth and final day in our Five Boroughs tour of this city, and standing up against the Trump administration's vision and the way in which it mandates an attack on the very fabric of the city that we call home.

We have got to recognize the cards that have been dealt, and we have got to meet fire with fire!

It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, and talk about way the world should be

That’s unbelievably disrespectful. It’s a provocative act.

Who else sends ICE [at the] same time we’re having a conversation like this? Someone who’s weak. Someone who’s broken. Someone whose weakness is masquerading as strength.

BORDER PATROL HAS SHOWED UP AT OUR BIG BEAUTIFUL PRESS CONFERENCE! WE WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED!

The problem for them is, Los Angeles doesn’t get scared and Los Angeles doesn’t back down. We never have and we never will.

What we saw just a moment ago with Border Patrol is a preview of things to come at voting booths and polling places all across this country.

I think they regard it as a success to have more presence and take more guns off the street, and we do too.

We all need to do what we can in our space, in our lane, to protect our city, to protect our autonomy, to protect our home rule, and get to the other side of this guy and make sure we elect a Democratic House so that we have a backstop to…

What you are finding is our state houses and our city council have been hijacked by the numerical minority.

Today I’m putting forward our proposal for those who have been considered a lost cause.

I think that's a profound question that arouses a lot of the biggest problems that have happened with Israel's survival, Israel's right to survival, in the diplomatic scene.

I think that we, as Israel's strongest ally and friend, you put your arm around your friend when there's something like this going on, and talk about what we're prepared to do together.

Netanyahu can't be the only voice, or kind of the only compass for what should happen in the U.S. Israel relationship.
