As a Queens/Sunnyside resident, I was shocked by the secrecy of Amazon’s deal with de Blasio and Cuomo. It was a slap on everyone who believed what a democratic procedure ought to be. It is profoundly offensive. No part of our hard-earned tax money should go to the richest company like Amazon. Their coming to our neighborhood will hike our rents and house prices that have been already doubled and tripled over the past ten years and still on the rise. Amazon wishes to contribute to NYC life by hiring public housing residents and funding some computer programs at local public schools. What an insult for 3 billion subsidy they get from NYC!! So outrageous. Local politicians such as you and Queens/NYC residents together should make concerted efforts to revoke the deal!

Can you fix the link for the Han Tak Lee petition? It comes up “Page Not Found”. Thank you.

On behalf of Nassau County I would like to thank you for speaking out against the abuse of airspace in Queens that is also happening in Nassau County. Nassau needs more legislators like yourself. Thank you

Mr. Kim, you’re a total bad ass! Taking down criminals. That’s what more people need to do.

Unfortunately I missed Hon. Kim’s Fundraising Reception because I received my forwarded mail too late. Please kindly update my records. My name is Soo Lee and my new address is 112-47 68th Drive, Forest Hills NY 11375 (from 76-36 113th Street).


Also, can you please provide me with mailing address for fundraising so that I may send my check. Thank you.

Mr. Kim, as a constitueant and a NYC teacher, I urge you to oppose the Governor’s klatest gift to charter schools, while taking money out of the pockets of public schools. A $500 credit for people making $60K or less will only contribute to the educational apartheid in NYC. I hope we can count on you for this one.

You admit you voted for this budget and say you are looking out for our kids, including your daughter? Was it just for the money?? Because what you voted for destroys the teaching profession and just emphasizes testing of the students! Don’t any of you politicians really care what your constituents wants, or is it all just politics? Do you really think teachers are so against these stupid changes because of themselves? Obviously you haven’t talked to any teachers about these assessments and what they are doing to the kids!! Nor have you listened to parents! All the money added to schools isn’t going to change how politics in education policies has been destroying our education system!! I am so disgusted with people controlling our schools who haven’t a clue what they are doing to the students!! It’s just all politics and money!!

I’m proud to have pushed back against original proposals that unfairly targeted and vilified teachers across this state. I rejected plans that would have led to more students being taught to the test, not learning with purpose in classrooms." -Ron Kim


Clearly you didn’t read the bill you voted for, as the bill places an even bigger emphasis on standardized tests. If a teacher receives an ineffective on the test score portion, he/she is guaranteed to receive an overall failing grade of ineffective (which could lead to termination) or developing (which freezes pay). In what bizarro world will this lead to LESS test prep? You sold out the teachers. You sold out the students. You sold out the parents. And if you end up sending your daughter to public school in NY, you sold her out, too. Instead of sending out the pat-yourself-on the back message you did, you should bow your head in shame for what you did.
