Council member Tiffany Cabán among 50 protesters arrested in takeover of Schumer, Gillibrand’s Midtown offices

By Dean Moses Posted on August 1, 2025

Council member Tiffany Cabán was among 50 people arrested on Friday afternoon as demonstrators stormed the lobby of Senator Chuck Schumer‘s of Midtown’s office.

About 200 protesters from Jewish Voices for Peace rushed into the lobby of 780 3rd Avenue at just after noon on August 1, which serves as an entry point to both Senator Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand’s offices. The group sat in the lobby, unfurled banners reading “let Gaza live” and “let aid in now,” all the while they banged pots and bans. Some even appeared to weep as they sang “stop staving Gaza” and “let it end.”
