IBEW Local 3 helped build the modern labor movement, and its members continue to power New York every day.

Local 3 represents more than 21,000 electrical workers across New York City and the surrounding region. These are the skilled union workers who keep our homes, schools, hospitals, transit systems, public buildings, and major infrastructure connected, safe, and running.

Under Harry Van Arsdale Jr., the union fought for groundbreaking protections like a shorter workday, collective member housing, and one of the nationā€™s first employer-funded pension plan for construction workers, setting a standard for what workers can win when they organize together.

Iā€™m proud to have the support of IBEW Local 3 in this campaign. Western Queens deserves a future built with union labor, strong safety standards, family-sustaining wages, and real respect for the workers who power our city.

We were proud to join the annual Queens Pride Parade, a tradition rooted in our community since 1993.

Queens Pride began in response to the murder of Julio Rivera and a wave of backlash against LGBTQIA+ inclusion in our schools. Out of that pain, Queens organizers built something powerful and lasting.

This is a community Iā€™ve been proud to show up for long before holding elected office, and weā€™ll keep standing with our neighbors. As LGBTQIA+ people face attacks across the country, we have to keep organizing for a Queens and a New York where everyone can live with dignity, love who they love, access healthcare, afford their homes, and be safe in their neighborhoods.

Happy Pride Month! šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆšŸ³ļøā€āš§ļø

Every road, bridge, school, transit system, water line, and major project we rely on is built by workers who deserve respect, safety, and power on the job.

Thatā€™s why Iā€™m honored to have the support of LIUNA, the Laborersā€™ International Union of North America, and the LiUNA-NY partnership representing tens of thousands of workers across New York.

LiUNA members are skilled union laborers who build the infrastructure our communities depend on every day, from transportation and schools to water and sewer systems, energy projects, and the buildings that shape our neighborhoods.

Iā€™m grateful to have LiUNA with us in this campaign and proud to stand alongside the workers building a stronger and safer New York.

It was wonderful to join the West Queens Independent Democratic Club in Sunnyside to discuss their priority policies and local community issues. Politics is local so thanks to all the work WQIDC does to inform our neighbors!

Assemblymember EmƩrita Torres has dedicated her career to fighting for justice and opportunity, from the South and Southeastern Bronx to communities across New York. As a lifelong Bronx resident, mother, policy leader, and former U.S. diplomat, she brings both lived experience and deep public service to the work of building a fairer state.

Before joining the Assembly, EmĆ©rita led major anti-poverty policy and advocacy work, helping expand access to half-price MetroCards, strengthen tenantsā€™ rights, reform rental assistance programs, and confront the true cost-of-living crisis facing working families. Her work has always centered the people too often pushed aside by broken systems.

Hereā€™s what she shared in support of our campaign:

ā€œAssemblymember Steven Raga is a principled, grounded, and courageous leader who understands that our communities deserve more than promises. They deserve action. In Albany, Iā€™ve seen Steven fight for tenants, immigrants, working families, students, and communities too often left out of the conversation. He leads with heart, integrity, and the urgency this moment demands. Iā€™m proud to endorse Steven Raga for State Senate because Western Queens deserves a Senator who will stand up, show up, and deliver.ā€

Iā€™m honored to have Assemblymember EmĆ©rita Torresā€™ endorsement in this campaign for State Senate District 12, and proud to stand alongside a colleague who fights every day for dignity and justice for working people.

Social service workers are on the frontlines of care, dignity, and survival for New Yorkers every day.

Iā€™m honored to have the support of Social Service Employees Union Local 371. Local 371 members fight for the public servants who help families access housing, benefits, child welfare services, legal support, healthcare, and the basic resources every community deserves.

Their union understands that strong contracts, safe workplaces, fair wages, and collective bargaining rights are directly connected to the quality of services our neighbors receive. When social service workers are respected and protected, our communities are stronger.

Local 371 has built power through member engagement, political action, and deep community support. Iā€™m proud to stand with the workers who show up for New Yorkers in their hardest moments ā€” and with a labor movement fighting for a government that works for working people.

Queens is powerful because our communities organize together.

At our AAPI Day of Action in Elmhurst, neighbors from across Western Queens came out to knock doors, talk to voters, poster, and build power in the heart of our immigrant communities.

Bangladeshi, Nepali, Indonesian, Burmese, Thai, Pakistani, Indian, Filipino, Tibetan, Chinese, Korean, and so many more AAPI neighbors stood together because our struggles are connected ā€” from caste discrimination to wage theft, from tenant protections to language access.

Weā€™ve made history before in New York State. Now we have the chance to make history again by sending a grassroots immigrant voice to the State Senate. This campaign is about our families, elders, workers, tenants, small businesses, young people, and the future of Western Queens.

Letā€™s go win this together!

New York moves because transit workers make it move.

Iā€™m honored to have the support of Transport Workers Union Local 100, representing the tens of thousands of workers who operate our trains, drive our buses, maintain tracks and equipment, clean stations and subway cars, repair elevators and escalators, support paratransit service, and keep millions of New Yorkers connected every day.

Every commute, every school drop-off, every late-night ride home, every trip to work, every visit to a loved one depends on the labor of TWU members. Their work is public service at the highest level, and it deserves more than gratitude ā€” it deserves safe working conditions, strong contracts, respect on the job, and real investment in the transit system they hold together.

Western Queens is a transit community, and our future depends on the workers who keep this city running. Proud to stand with TWU Local 100 and the labor movement in the fight for dignity, safety, and power for working people.
