In 2018, our health care helpline helped recover more than $2 million in restitution and savings for New Yorkers.

Our helpline is a free service for people across our state to report issues or seek assistance related to health care.
From incorrect medical billing, wrongful health plan rejection, improper processing of health insurance claims, and wrongful termination of health insurance, we handled almost 2K complaints, and assisted an additional 2.3K New Yorkers seeking information or referrals.
Healthcare is a basic right that all NYers should have access to, & our helpline has been invaluable in ensuring NYers get the care they deserve & aren't taken advantage of.

If you're having issues, I urge you to reach out to our office:

800-428-9071

We indicted three individuals for their alleged roles in a “pay-to-play" bribery scheme surrounding the rebuilding of the World Trade Center that came at the expense of the @PANYNJ.

These individuals exchanged lavish gifts for preferential work treatment & confidential info.
Among other gifts, a WTC official received expensive sports tickets & travel from 2 electrical contractors working to rebuild the World Trade Center in exchange for confidential info.

They also squandered @PANYNJ funds & put lives at risk by hiring unqualified electricians.
These individuals were trusted with rebuilding the site of the worst terror attack in American history, but instead, allegedly squandered public funds to line their own pockets.

We will crack down on corruption & work to ensure public integrity & accountability throughout NY.

We have zero tolerance for discrimination or harassment in our schools–that’s why we investigated the Chapel School in Bronxville after receiving a report alleging a teacher simulated a "slave auction" in two separate fifth grade social studies classes.
The mock auctions included a simulation of chains or "shackles" being placed on the black student's necks, wrists, and ankles, and the "sale" of the students to their white counterparts.

The teacher was terminated when the school discovered these horrifying events took place.
As a result of our investigation, the Chapel School will hire a Chief Diversity Officer, provide a plan for annually increasing the diversity of it’s teaching faculty, & commit new financial aid resources to maintain a diverse student body.

BREAKING: We're announcing the takedown of two major drug rings that have been operating across Central & Upstate NY.

This operation resulted in a 93 count indictment against 65 people arrested for their alleged roles in flooding the region with heroin, fentanyl, and cocaine.
Between the 2 rings we recovered approximately:

4.7K bags of heroin & fentanyl worth $140K.

2 kilos of cocaine worth over $200K.

Multiple firearms & over 75K in cash.
Since 2017 we've taken 437 alleged traffickers off the streets.

Let this serve as a loud & clear message: there is zero tolerance for drug trafficking in NY & we'll hold those accountable to the fullest extent of the law.

New research from @iftf shows that disinformation disproportionally targets latinos, muslims, and jews on social media with harassment, highjacked conversations, and flat out falsehoods spread by extremists: buzzfeednews.com/article/craigs…
This coincides with other research done in this field. According to a 2019 report from the ADL, 27% of black Americans, 30% of Latinos, 35% of Muslims, and 63% of the LGBTQ+ communities in the United States have been harassed online because of their identity.
IFTF studies show that disinformation and harassment go hand-in-hand and cannot be separated.

Activists report their messages getting highjacked by their opponents. In the study on anti-immigration disinformation, highjacked narratives outpaced genuine ones in all cases but one

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...

The U.S. Senate passed a major defense, labor, #health & education funding bill today on a bipartisan 85-7 vote. Pluses in health #research, health #workforce, other initiatives now to reconcile w/House which hasn't moved its bill yet.. /1 @CardinalWaypt senate.gov/legislative/LI…
Can Congress get #health funding done before the new FY19 begins Oct. 1? Maybe. Holdover temporary funding then finish the work in a post-election lame duck session? Depends. /2 @CardinalWaypt
This is more certain: 2019 work for 2020 #health spending will be much more difficult. The new Congress elected this November will get this ticket after the 2yr Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 $$$ expires,, w/big deficits in view. /3 @CardinalWaypt cbo.gov/publication/53…
