Organizer in movements for peace, justice, labor, the environment, democratic socialism, and independent working-class politics since the late 1960s.

I am the only progressive for governor still on the ballot – the only candidate for raising the minimum wage to $20, guaranteed health care, stronger rent regulations and building lots of quality public housing that working-class people can afford, fully funding and desegregating public schools, tuition-free CUNY and SUNY, 100% clean energy by 2030, and taxing the rich to revitalize public services and infrastructure, starting with NYCHA and the MTA. I want to abolish bail, guarantee speedy trials, legalize marijuana, and treat drug abuse as a health problem instead of a criminal problem. I want fair elections and clean government: public campaign finance, term limits, universal voter registration, independent ethics oversight, ranked-choice voting for executive offices, and proportional representation in the legislature. Don’t waste your vote on the two-party status quo. Don’t let them take your vote for granted. Vote for what you want. Make the politicians come to you.
