Peggy is a healthcare worker and @1199seiu.org member at a dialysis center in Brooklyn. She knows what Trump’s cuts to Medicaid will mean for her patients — and why we need a Mayor who will fight for New Yorkers, not conspire with a President who kicks them off their insurance.

U.S. taxpayers have spent $24 billion on Netanyahu's horrific war in Gaza. Instead of starving children, that money could pay for: 700,000 public housing units 500,000 low-income kids receiving health care 500,000 veterans receiving VA care 600,000 kids in Head Start Combined.

The Americans with Disabilities Act — passed 35 years ago — was not a gift. It was the result of a powerful movement led by people who demanded to be seen, heard and treated with dignity. The fight for equality is far from over. In fact, it is more urgent now than ever.
