We honored some living legends last night in the Chambers. And they're still pushing the envelope! Such a sweet reminder that you always have more fight in you than you think.

Door Dash after committing wage theft of a quarter million workers
Since 2023, more than 200,000 Dashers in New York City were underpaid or paid late under the City’s delivery worker pay rules. These errors were unintentional, but that doesn’t make them acceptable. Dashers should be paid in full, on time, every time. We take full responsibility, and we’re deeply sorry. We’ve reached a $131.5 million settlement with the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. Every impacted Dasher will receive the amount they are owed, and they’ll be contacted directly with payment details. We understand the impact of even one missed or late payment. We’ve addressed the issues that caused these errors and made changes to prevent them from happening again. Read more here: about.doordash.com/en-us/new….
Community note
DoorDash spent $1 million in the 2025 NYC mayoral election against Zohran Mamdani, whose campaign included promises to investigate delivery/Rideshare services for underpaying/withholding wages. politico.com/news/2025/05/1…

"We must dismantle this unjust system, city by city, state by state, and country by country. I can't wait to stand with you, no matter if that is in physical or spiritual form. I will one day be announcing, I AM TROY DAVIS, and I AM FREE!"

The over 25,000 paraprofessionals serving our city face a dire affordability crisis of their own. Local Law 129 is a constructive step forward in stabilizing the municipal workforce, providing financial relief while vacancies and billions in Carter Case spending are addressed.
More than 1,000 paraprofessional vacancies. More than 25,000 paraprofessionals who barely make a living wage. Today, we filed our legal response to defend Local Law 129 — for our students, our schools and our paraprofessionals.

An analysis of records shows NYPD boss Jessica Tisch has assigned dozens of cops with extremely troubling records to Community Response Teams. The Adams-era jump-out squads are known for routinely violating the rights of Black and brown New Yorkers. hellgatenyc.com/jessica-tisc…
