I’m trying to be a mayor so honest that you come back to New York City, my brother.

I know many oppose them, but when a public school fails generation after generation, and we keep it open anyway, that’s unacceptable.

I will no longer look for myself in the shadows— I will find myself in the light.

No more.

I am fast tracking $30 million in emergency food assistance funds to help keep food pantries stocked.

Every American who wakes up in the morning to get a cup of java is paying a price for Donald Trump’s reckless, ridiculous, and almost childish tariffs.

It just shows the idea of a Muslim woman wearing a hijab and feeling uncomfortable after 9/11 is so foreign to the right wing in this city and this country that the only answer to them is that it must be a lie.

I will be a Muslim man in New York City.

Tens of millions of Americans face the specter of financial crisis all while Donald Trump is dancing on the tarmac in Malaysia.

We Democrats have been calling on Republican leaders to sit down with us and negotiate and address this crisis since the summer.

I think that is insulting to all New Yorkers.

I find the comments that Hasan made on 9/11 to be objectionable and reprehensible.

I want to speak to the memory of my aunt, who stopped taking the subway after September 11th because she did not feel safe in her hijab.

Oh, you’re fired up, you’re fired up.

Right now, our city and our state and our country are under attack by Donald Trump and our Republicans in Washington.
