  1. A lot of people think crime is on the rise in NYC. It's not. Crime is near record lows, and it went down again in November. Spread the word.

  2. Yes, I said tax the wealthy. It's ok. Most of the American people think we should as well.

  3. Tax the wealthy. Raise the minimum wage. Provide universal Pre-K. Expand Social Security. That's how we start to tackle growing inequality.

  4. Real change happens when working families get involved. That's how we established universal pre-K, expanded paid sick leave & launched IDNYC

  5. By picking Andrew Puzder, Donald Trump is making it clear that he opposes: ❌ Minimum wage increases ❌ Paid sick leave ❌ Basic labor rights

  6. No one who works full-time should live in poverty. $9 isn’t enough. A living wage is what people deserve.

  7. More than 40 percent of American workers make less than $15 per hour. They deserve a raise. We’re going to fight to make sure they get one.

  8. A surprise, Mayor De Blasio and the First Lady stopped by .

  9. Union workers make 25 percent more money than nonunion counterparts. That doesn’t mean they are overpaid. It means you should be in a union.

  10. Just saw Anna Deavere Smith's "Notes from the Field" w/ Chirlane. GO SEE IT NOW! A thunderbolt of clarity/inspiration as we enter Trump Era

  11. The vast majority of contributions to our campaign come from lots of people giving small amounts of money. Add yours

  12. NY's fast food workers won a $15 minimum wage. More important than ever we all stand in solidarity with national movement.

  13. We are not going to let information used to obtain cards be used to tear apart families. Not happening.

  14. America's workers deserve a raise and a union, not a Labor Sec. who thinks they're paid too much and wants to replace them with robots.

  15. Sorry . Unions like the Steelworkers, leaders like Chuck Jones are going to save this country from your anti-worker policies

  16. Disgrace that millions of Americans lack health insurance. Now GOP wants to take it from poor & privatize it for aging? We're not going back

  17. Let me make this clear: commit a hate crime in NYC and the NYPD is going to find you. We're better than this.

  18. Parents shouldn't be forced to make last minute choice between a check or their kids. Time for in NYC

  19. NYC Native Marvin Miller stopped baseball owners from treating players like they are property. He should be in the Hall of Fame.

  20. Trump pledged to end carried interest loophole allowing rich hedge fund managers to pay lower tax rate than teachers. Let's hold him to that
