This #WearOrange weekend, I’m keeping all of our neighbors, friends, and loved ones who’ve fallen victim to gun violence in my heart, and working harder than ever to combat gun violence in our community.

If a landlord is going to try and evict someone, they’d better have a damn good reason. That’s why we need this bill to prevent landlords from evicting tenants without "good cause," anything shy of illegal activity or a breach of the lease. qns.com/story/2019/06/…

Hi, Robin! I’m so glad you asked: I'm running to make the DA's office a partner in justice. To me, that means reducing crime in our community, passing meaningful reform, and fighting for justice for all! I've also been endorsed by @PPNYCVotesPAC, @32BJSEIU and 300+ local leaders!

Instead of trying to better inform “customers” about the trappings of bail bonds, how about eliminating cash bail?

As Queens District Attorney, Melinda Katz will hold employers accountable for wage theft and workplace safety violations—and prosecute employers who do not follow the law. It’s what’s right for all working people. Vote @melindakatz for #QueensDA on June 25 katz4da.com pic.twitter.com/PzND3I0uSB

This isn't my first campaign. I know desperate candidates will tell any lie to win. I had hoped we could all run a positive, issue-focused campaign for DA b/c I think that's what Queens deserves.
I am happy to run on my own record. Tiffany, can you say the same?

Tiffany wants you to think I'm unqualified to be DA.
The truth: I have a proven record of delivering critical reforms while keeping Queens safe. Tiffany's record? It got her rated UNQUALIFIED by the Queens County Bar Association.

Tiffany wants you to believe that my fundraising is all from mega-donors and hers is small-dollar.
The truth: Tiffany is lying about her "people-centered" campaign. Her money has poured in from out-of-state interests + billionaires. 47% of her money came from 26 donors!!!

Tiffany says I'm just a cog in "the machine."
The truth: I first ran on a 3rd party line to challenge the men in power & have spent years supporting women doing the same. I have always been my own woman & always will be, despite the sexist refrain the Cabán campaign is pushing

This morning, @CabanForQueens put out a new ad that spends a lot of time talking about...me.
Let me be clear. For someone who is supposedly running a "different kind of campaign," this ad was full of the same sexism & half-truths that the worst kind of campaigns use. (THREAD 🔽)

It’s #NationalGunViolenceAwarenessDay, but there aren’t enough days in the year to mourn all who’ve lost their lives to this tragic epidemic. I’ll be keeping the victims of gun violence in my heart, today and every day, as we push for safe, common sense gun reforms #WearOrange

We HAVE “taken risks” for years. In 2018 we focused on winning a NY Dem Senate majority helped made it happen. In Boston we were first to endorse Ayana & many grassroots on East Coast. But we also support folks who have a history of fighting w us. @MelindaKatz is one of them. twitter.com/_waleedshahid/…

"Melinda is a different type of politician, she’s gutsy, she’s tough, she gets things done" -- Gov. @andrewcuomo
Our justice system won't reform itself, so Queens residents need more than empty talking points. We need someone who can get things done.
