1️⃣ week from Election Day! I voted early this morning with @claireforny.bsky.social and Samantha Kattan - it's time to let every voter know it's time to make their voice heard in this important midterm election. Sign up for canvasses all over the district at act.david4queens.com/map

The whole crew is coming out to support this week: Queens Young Dems tonight, @queensdsa.bsky.social tomorrow, @socialists.nyc AfroSoc & @queenswfp.bsky.social on Thursday, @socialists.nyc Labor Working Group and Tax The Rich on Sunday.

A great GOTV weekend! While our team was out knocking on OVER 2,000 DOORS (!) I took a break and visited Richmond Hill and @drumbeats and @caribbeanequalityproject for Diwali.

Fantastic GOTV kickoff with @claireforny.bsky.social and special guest @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, speakers from labor unions HTC, @opeiulocal153.bsky.social, @uawregion9a.bsky.social, @psc-cuny.org, and organizers from unions & movement partners @socialists.nyc, CUFFHA, @makeroadactny.bsky.social

Ozone Park is home to thousands of union workers, and thousands more who have never had the opportunity to be in a union or organize. Today, we knocked on the doors of almost 2000 voters to let our neighbors know it's time to wake up our political power.

Let's go! Out here supporting the incredible @NYNURSES in their fight for safe staffing and against retaliation at Kings County Hospital and the baristas at Starbucks in Glendale who are on a ULP strike.

Every worker deserves a union job. I’m proud to stand alongside @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social to make it happen, and you can too! Special Guest Mayor Zohran Mamdani is joining @claireforny.bsky.social, me, and union workers this Saturday at 12PM for our Labor Rally + GOTV Canvass!

I’m honored to have earned the endorsement of over 20 labor unions and organizations and the thousands of their members who call AD38 home. I’m ready to go to work to fix tier 6, protect workers from AI job losses, strengthen workers' rights, and bring good union jobs to our district.

I know what it takes to win for workers. As a labor and employment attorney, I've represented my immigrant neighbors facing discrimination and wage theft at work. With my UAW local, I negotiated and secured a historic contract with strong wages, benefits, and protections.

EARLY VOTING STARTS THIS WEEKEND! Get out the vote for me @claireforny.bsky.social and Aber with movement partners at @socialists.nyc Labor Working Group @nycdsaecosoc.bsky.social @jfrejnyc.bsky.social CUFFH Action and union endorsers at our canvasses all week, and Labor for Claire & David Rally!

I'm proud to be the labor candidate in this assembly race. A thriving and politicized labor movement is what will win the affordable New York we deserve. Sign up at act.david4queens.com/map

I was honored to return to Ozone Park Jame Masjid and speak with so many community members excited to see change in our communities.

3️⃣ weeks left before Election Day, 3️⃣ special guests at our canvasses, 3️⃣ special chances to meet our neighbors! Knock doors with Jennifer Gutierrez, @socialists.nyc Tax the Rich campaign, and Treeage. Come out to our candidate forums. Share your visions for a thriving South Queens.

A beautiful Saturday in AD38! First, I visited the impressive Community Pantry in Richmond Hill, then knocked doors in Ozone Park.

Yesterday, along with over 300 New Yorkers, elected officials, public figures, and activists from @jvp.bsky.social and @socialists.nyc, I demanded an end to the funding of the US and Israel’s wars.

Sometimes I feel overwhelmed by our collective task - how can I ever do enough when faced with the sheer devastation of war, genocide, and climate catastrophe?

It's official — Mayor @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is endorsing my campaign for NY State Assembly District 38! Together we'll work to fulfill the Mayor's promise that “there is no problem too large for government to solve, and no concern too small for it to care about.”

New Yorkers can’t afford to wait for affordable housing, childcare, and transit. When you elect me as your Assembly Member on November 3, I’ll be working on your behalf, with the Mayor and our movement, to make sure your government delivers for working people.

Every year, Rosh Hashanah is an invitation — it begins the Days of Awe, where we take stock of the past year and set intentions for the one to come. 1/4

I’m also thinking about the incredible wave of hope our collective movement has brought to New York - that we can have a better city. We elected an unprecedented number of socialists, made Palestine a baseline issue, and tended to our burgeoning anti-war movement. 3/4
