Williamsburg comes together to welcome Governor @KathyHochul - a great friend who has done so much for our community.
Thank you for always being there for us on affordable housing, yeshiva education & childcare vouchers.
Important meeting in Williamsburg today arranged by Rabbi @MoishIndig.
Thank you @GovKathyHochul for coming to meet directly with our community leadership, Hatzalah, Shomrim & Chaveirim to discuss what matters to our families: affordable housing, yeshiva education & childcare vouchers.

Great example of teamwork delivering for families!
Thank you @GovKathyHochul, @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani & our Councilman @LincolnRestler for making this happen. 10,000+ families on the waitlist will now receive child care vouchers - a huge win for our community!
Huge shoutout to Councilman @LincolnRestler for making child care a top priority and never letting up until families on the waitlist got the help they needed. Lincoln is more than a councilman. He’s a relentless fighter, a true champion for families, children, and our communities
Welcome to Wmsbg, Mayor @NYCMayor Mamdani! Thank you for granting permission for all public Sukkahs on city property - helping everyone in Williamsburg and across the city do the Sukkah in the best way as Halacha requires.
Chag Sameach & welcome, Mayor @NYCMayor Zohran Mamdani!
Thank you for celebrating the holiday with Jewish community leaders in Williamsburg and for your strong support for the Jewish community.
In a special moment, the Mayor took part in a Kinyan with a Gartel to grant permission for all public Sukkahs on city property in NYC to be owned properly according to Torah law.
Your friendship means the world to us!

This is our boys! A real example of authentic Jewish & Satmar Chinuch!
We appreciate all our friends in government & law enforcement who work for us and came to see it up close! Thank you for your partnership! @BrooklynDA @BKBPReynoso @LincolnRestler @NYSPIA_BCI @NewYorkStateAG
Honored to welcome our friends in government and law enforcement to our boys camp in the Catskills - the biggest boys camp in the Catskills!
Thank you @BrooklynDA @BKBPReynoso @LincolnRestler @NYSPIA_BCI @NewYorkStateAG and Sullivan County Sheriff Schiff, DA Conaty & Chief Kinne for your continued partnership and support!
Rare footage: The Satmar Rebbe, Rabbi Yoel Teitelbaum zt"l, in Williamsburg.
He built the entire Satmar community - which today leads the Jewish world - from nothing after the Holocaust, and spent his final years in the village he built, @KiryasJoel .
From the NYT Archives, August 1979: On the passing of the Satmar Rebbe zt"l - "You don't replace your parents; you can't grow a new head."
How Williamsburg and Kiryas Joel mourned a leader who built an entire world from ashes.

Strong it is! Thanks @NYCSanitation
Big shoutout to @NYCSanitation and the Strongest crew! Even on a super freezing Sunday, y'all keep NYC clean and safe while melting snow and collecting material. Thanks for the grind, heroes!
Yep, day by day and block by block, NY's strongest are making it happen! 💪 Nothing can stop this city's momentum #NYCSanitation
@NYCSanitation keeps on pushing! Day by day, they're keeping NYC safe and clean despite brutal freezing weather turning snow to ice, making every shovel full a challenge. Keep it up!

New York has weathered the biggest snowstorm in years and is back to business as usual. Thank you @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani for leading the city's response on the ground and Gov. @GovKathyHochul for mobilizing state resources. Special shoutout to @NYCSanitation , @NYC_DOT, @NYSDOT, @NYSDHSES , @FDNY, @NYPDnews, @NotifyNYC , and @NYSPolice for their tireless work. Businesses are open, kids are back in school. New York always rises to any challenge.
Williamsburg is looking good! According to the update, 100% of the neighborhood has received at least one DSNY plow pass, with crews working tirelessly to cover every inch of the city. They're prioritizing avenues and main streets first, then moving on to side streets and others.
Kudos to Mayor Zohran Mamdani & the NYC team for keeping the city safe and clean during the snowstorm! The Strongest are definitely on the front line.
Snow is expected to start falling in NYC around 6 a.m. Sunday and continue until Monday, with 8-12 inches predicted. DSNY plows will be out as soon as 2 inches accumulate, likely by 9 a.m. Sunday. Stay home if possible, and let New York's Strongest handle it. @NYCSanitation

Teamwork makin' it happen. For the better of the community and a better future of teamwork.

Thank you, @NYCMayor Zohran Mamdani, for standing steadfast with the Jewish community against this act of antisemitism. Hate has no place in our city—today, tomorrow, or ever
I am sickened by this antisemitic vandalism in Borough Park. Antisemitism has no place in our city, and I stand shoulder to shoulder with the Jewish New Yorkers who were targeted. My administration is working closely with the NYPD’s Hate Crimes Task Force as well as our Parks Department, and those responsible will be investigated and held accountable.
Cute story happened on Wmsbg streets! A vehicle dislodged from a tow truck and struck a school bus on Wallabout Street. Thanks, W365!
This is great news!
Mayor Zohran Mamdani promised to ease the burden on NYC small business owners, and today he delivered! His executive order directs seven city agencies to review fees and civil penalties, aiming to reduce and streamline them. Small businesses are the backbone of our neighborhoods, and this action cuts through the maze of overlapping fees and permits, making it easier to open and operate in NYC.

As we sit here, we're happy to hear Governor Hochul's commitment to keeping our synagogues safe and protest-free! Thank you, Governor, for standing with our community and protecting our right to worship. #StandWithUs #NoProtestsAtSynagogues
