So many of America’s crises have been laid bare in the tragedies in Boulder and Atlanta: our gun crisis, our mental health crisis, and systemic racism. My heart goes out to all the victims and their families who lost a loved one yesterday
We can and must do better.
This country makes it easier for someone to get an assault rifle than access to mental health services. Ten lives were stolen before the police were able to arrest the gunman, and at that time, they did not know his name or religion but only the color of his skin.

I understand the limitations of drug addiction and mental health issues. We deserve a prosecutor that people seeks treatment and support, not punishment, for those impacted. #Tahanie4DA#Justice4All 6/
As your next Manhattan DA, I will protect & support our communities and protect them from hate. Hate crimes are on the rise, against our Jewish brothers and sisters, against the transgender community, against people living w/ disabilities, against people of color. #Tahanie4DA 7/

My name is Tahanie Aboushi and I am running to be the next District Attorney of Manhattan. #Tahanie4DA#Justice4All 1/
I lived through the damage and destruction the prosecution system can cause. My father served 20yrs in prison. Seeing my family struggle, knowing so many more shared in it, and barely surviving the system inspired me to fight the injustices of discrimination. #Tahanie4DA 2/
