Issues Andrew is fighting for

Keeping Kids Safe Online

As the father of three young kids, Andrew’s top priority is keeping our children safe. He's stood up to Big Tech, and passed landmark laws to protect kids from addictive social media algorithms and dangerous, unregulated AI.

Making Streets Safer and Transit Faster

Andrew believes smart regulations, well-designed streets and investments in transit can make it safer and easier for New Yorkers to get to school, work, and all the places they need to go. 

Supporting Working Families

Andrew knows too many New York families are struggling to make ends meet. He’s a champion for universal childcare, affordable housing, lower utility costs, and the Working Families Tax Credit.

Expanding College Access

Andrew believes New York has been a beacon of opportunity for generations, and knows protecting immigrant families helps ensure a safer, better future for all.

Protecting Reproductive Rights

Andrew has always been an unapologetic fighter for reproductive rights. That’s why, in his first term in office, he voted to pass the Reproductive Health Act—which codified Roe v. Wade protections into state law—overcoming years of Republican obstructionism.

Ending the Gun Violence Epidemic

Andrew refuses to sit idly by and do nothing while the Supreme Court tries to eviscerate common sense gun laws and Congress lets years pass with no action.
