How our city’s investments become investments in New Yorkers. When we say economic justice and economic growth go hand in hand, this is an example of what we mean.

For decades economic development has relied on tax breaks and subsidies for the largest corporations, a trickle-down approach that too often falls short.

@NYCMayor and @NYCEDC are charting a new path.

In the first deal of its kind in NYC history, the public is investing $30 million in a quantum lab - in exchange for three board seats and 15% of the revenue generated from technology it creates.

And if any firm coming out of the lab merges, gets acquired, or IPOs, the city gets a payout.

When public dollars are invested, the public should share in the wealth and innovation those investments create.

Congrats, Captains! NYC Ferry’s captains voted to join @transportworker, 2 months after the technicians and welders did the same.

The @NYCMayor administration will always support workers’ choice to organize for a union. (🧵1/2)

My first time at @MetOpera (and first opera ever!) watching the unbelievably talented members of @Local_802_AFM, @METOrchestra, & AGMA perform Macbeth.

I kept thinking all night, “I wish everyone could see this.”

And now with @NYCMayor’s Opera for All, more people will. (🧵1/3)

The honor was all mine. Thank you for the backstage tour, sharing your talent and passion, and for the unbelievable performance.

We had the honor of meeting @DMJulieSu and giving her a backstage tour during the opening night of the Met Opera. It was a terrific opportunity to showcase the incredible work & artistry of the @METOrchestra!

On 9/11, 73 workers at Windows on the World died. They were restaurant workers working on the 107th and 108th floors of the World Trade Center. What an honor to spend time with their families, co-workers, and other restaurant workers with @onefairwage to remember them. (🧵1/4)
