In light of recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions and now news of the New York Chief Judge stepping down, it is more important than ever that Governor Hochul nominates and the Senate confirms a progressive chief judge.

Crime breeds off poverty & lack of opportunity. We cannot police, imprison and penalize our way to safer communities. It<U+2019>s why we work to combat the root causes of crime in our communities not just symptoms.
The New York Post falsely claimed that the man<U+2019>s release on the instant case and another recent charge were due to bail reform. In truth, just as prior to reform, this person's release was left to the discretion of the judge. https://t.co/gWfrYmgOiT
