“This Mother’s Day, as we take a moment to appreciate the mothers in our lives, we should also remember to consider how to make our city a better place for working women and families. Although the current Administration has launched a relentless assault on women’s rights, New Yorkers believe in these deeply entrenched rights – and we will do everything in our power to defend them. The Council will continue to support and enact legislation that helps make life in our city easier for women, while also advocating for improved policies at the state and federal level. I am grateful to have the opportunity to fight on behalf of mothers and working women across the five boroughs. On behalf of the Council, Happy Mother’s Day to all New Yorkers.”
