Two years ago #HurricaneMaria made landfall on Puerto Rico. We cannot forget those we lost because of that catastrophic storm & those who are still struggling to rebuild & recover.
New York will continue to help our fellow Americans. #LaIslaDelEncanto
Climate change has made our weather more extreme & storms more destructive. More than 3,000 were killed by #HurricaneMaria & countless more saw their lives devastated.
Dos años atrás, el #HuracánMaría azotó a Puerto Rico. No podemos olvidar a todos los que perdieron la vida en ese catastrófico huracán, y a los muchos que aún luchan por reconstruir y recuperarse.
Nueva York seguirá ayudando a nuestros hermanos boricuas. #LaIslaDelEncanto
El cambio climático ha potenciado nuestro clima haciéndolo más extremo y a las tormentas más destructivas. Más de 3.000 personas murieron en PR, y la vida de muchos más quedó devastada.
Today, my office and a nationwide coalition of AGs are suing @Meta for harming kids with its platforms and fueling the youth mental health crisis.
We're going to end Meta's behavior and keep our kids safe online. ⤵️
Meta has claimed its platforms are safe for kids, but in reality, it knew its features were harmful.
The company designed its platforms with manipulative features that hook children while collecting data on kids under 13 without parental consent, violating child protection laws.
Its platforms are designed to ensure kids:
- Spend more time on their platforms.
- Compare themselves to their peers.
- And receive constant notifications, making them lose sleep and struggle to pay attention in school.
We're suing four nursing homes run by @CentersHealth and their owners and operators for allegedly pocketing over $83 million in taxpayer money that should have been used for resident care.
As a result, residents suffered greatly, were endangered, and even died.
Residents were forced to live in horrific conditions at:
- Beth Abraham Center in the Bronx.
- Holliswood Center in Queens.
- Buffalo Center in Erie County.
-Martine Center in Westchester.
They diverted $83 million for their own profit.
Meanwhile, residents were:
-Permanently injured
-Forced to sit in their own urine and feces for hours
-Severely malnourished and dehydrated
-Developing dangerous infections and sepsis from untreated bed sores
I'm in Hempstead to announce a lawsuit against Red Rose Rescue, an anti-abortion group, for illegally invading reproductive health care clinics in New York and disrupting services and terrorizing patients.
Every New Yorker has the right to safely access reproductive care.
Red Rose Rescue and its members have repeatedly infiltrated clinics on Long Island and in Westchester, threatening staff and patients.
They make fake appointments to gain access to clinics and then hijack the facilities to stop all services until they are physically removed.
At the @PPNChealth in Hempstead, a member locked the entrances to the building with industrial locks and superglue, delaying appointments and services for hours.
Once the locks were removed, he laid in the driveway so no one could enter until the police physically removed him.
