Ice Training: Hands Off Uptown
Our Congressman Voted to Increase ICE use of AI with $200,000,000 of Tech — It’s Time to Take Action One of the reasons I'm running for Congress is because my opponent voted yes to the H.R.993 - Emerging Innovative Border Technologies Act This gives ICE the power to spend on Facial Recognition AI, Robotic Dogs, and new apps in their phones to better track our movements and arrest us. This guy is not helping immigrants like my husband and his family, even as he claims to be th

Data Bill Of Rights
The Data Bill of Rights was first written by James Felton Keith in 2015 before the founding of The Data Union and explained on stage at the RadicalXChange conference in 2019. Here is a clip of that explanation from the RadX panel. These ideas which were once considered radical are not anymore, after the scaling of Artificial Intelligence to the every day user.

Guaranteed Income of $1000/mo
When I founded the Basic Income March it was to bring theorists and everyday people together about what is possible. Most people don't think they are owed anything else from governments or corporations, and that's just a story that you've been sold. The true story is that American's missed out on $3.9 Trillion last year alone! The income movement is growing via marhces in 40 countries and counting. Look for the ≥ I spent a bit of time with Basic Income activist Scott Santans

We Owe Us 2026
Our newest campaign video is actually our oldest one. A journalist recently asked if JFK’s platform was inspired by Mayor-elect Mamdani. Let’s be clear: JFK endorsed Zohran for mayor back in March 2025 — months before his opponent endorsed Cuomo in May 2025 . But JFK’s platform wasn’t inspired by anyone new. It’s rooted in the same issues he’s been fighting for since long before Zohran was even in high school. The video below still resonates because JFK’s 2019 campaign was a

Election Watch Party
Dear Neighbor, Join us for an election night watch party and a community Q&A on what types of policies we can use to bring down the cost of living and bring up our incomes. JFK has some workable ideas! Our opponent endorsed Andrew Cuomo, but JFK endorsed Zohran from day 1 before the primary and after he hosted the LGBT Voters Forum at The Church Of The Village . We need to be deliberate about defining leadership going forward.

Our Neighbor Mahmoud Khalil
Dear Neighbor, In the race for NY-13, we cannot ignore a troubling truth: many who call themselves Democrats have either silently enabled or actively endorsed a war on free speech in our country. This isn’t some abstract ideological debate—it’s personal, it’s local, and it’s happening to our neighbors. Take our neighbor Mahmoud Khalil, a lawful permanent resident in our district and a constituent who was abducted in front of his eight-month-pregnant wife from his university h
