John Liu
New York State Senator; Chair of Standing Committee on NYC Education
- If the Trump administration had any respect for our history, like the landmark ruling affirming birthright citizenship for Chinese-American Wong Kim Ark, they wouldn’t be so set on undoing it. Instead Trump thumbs his nose at our history and the US Constitution itself.
- Trump’s move to eliminate @usedgov jeopardizes the education of millions of schoolkids. My full statement:
- Mayor Adams has forgotten that NYC has always been the international capital of the world, built and strengthened by citizens of the world. Given that he has badly betrayed the people of New York, he must step down. If not, we need Governor Hochul to remove him to save our city.
- Shocking mayor’s memo sows confusion among city workers and jeopardizes the education, health, and safety of New York children and families by subverting division-of-power grounded for centuries in American governance. And invites federal agents to come in hot.
- NEW: Mayor Adams' admin last month quietly told all city agencies, including schools & shelters, they can let ICE agents looking for immigrants onto city property without warrants if city personnel "reasonably feel threatened" by their presence. www.nydailynews.com/2025/02/06/a...
