  • A dad of five in the Bronx was taken by ICE. Moved out of state and cut off from his family. I answered the call because I’ve seen this story too often. Thankfully he’s home now. Nobody asked me to do this. That’s the point, that’s what showing up means.

  • “The hypocrisy is staggering.” Their words, not mine. Valdez has 3 super PACs after pledging none. Reynoso has $1M in outside money (NYT). Won takes real estate developer cash. Me? None of that, just people. They’re playing games. We’re fighting for you. June 23. Top of the ballot. #Kumar4NY #NY7

  • Abolishing ICE is one thing. Building what comes next for our neighbors is the work. I’ve been in those rooms protecting families, not reviewing talking points about them. No PACs, no BS. Vote by June 23. #Kumar4ny #ny7 #congress

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors.
