Today I walked a factory floor where dozens of New Yorkers of Asian heritage were sewing the surgical gowns that will protect hospital workers. I let them know how thankful I was, and how proud I was to be there with them.

In the midst of this crisis, we& #39;ve seen discrimination and hatred directed at our Asian American community. It’s sickening. We will use the full force of the law to protect people.

If you see discrimination or a hate crime call 311 or 911 immediately. We will throw the FULL weight of the law at perpetrators.
