    This week’s progress in advancing the rights of LGBT Americans is undeniable. With victory for marriage equality initiatives in three states, the election of my friend Tammy Baldwin as the first openly gay U.S. Senator, the election of a r...
    ecord number of openly LGBT Members of the House, and the reelection of a President who supports the freedom of all Americans to legally marry whichever person they choose, we have made significant strides toward equality. I am elated by this progress and I look forward to returning to Congress with the knowledge that our nation is truly changing.

    I also would like to take this profound moment in our national history to challenge my colleagues in Congress, Democrats and Republicans alike, governors and state legislators across the country, and people in positions of power everywhere to join our movement now. Now is the time for courageous leadership that will guide Americans toward a not-so-distant future when ALL Americans are truly equal. I urge you to join us now or you will become increasingly irrelevant, isolated, and ignored amidst an unmistakable reality. So, let us pass the Respect for Marriage Act to repeal DOMA, let us achieve marriage equality in each state, and let us declare that LGBT Americans have the same rights to love, happiness, family, and equality as all Americans – and let us do it NOW.

    Next week, we return to Washington with a critical task before the end of the 112th Congress -- to avert the crisis of the "Fiscal Cliff" brought by sequestration and tax increases. I joined Manhattan Borough President Scott M. Stringer and Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney today in releasing a detailed, must-read report on the potential impacts on New York City:

    We are still working in earnest to fix major problems with power, water & heat in Coney Island and Manhattan buildings, especially in NYCHA buildings and Mitchell-Lamas.

    Volunteers are still very much needed today in Coney Island. Rescue efforts are based at 2770 West 5th Street near Neptune Avenue, Room 4V, in Warbasse Houses.

    After a comprehensive tour of the district yesterday in both Manhattan and Brooklyn, I am truly speechless. My staff and I will continue to work to ensure that people are connected to resources and help where they need it.
