After months of mulling a campaign launch, Queens state Sen. Jessica Ramos announced Friday she’s going to challenge Mayor Adams in next year’s Democratic primary election, becoming the first woman to join the increasingly crowded race.

“I love my city, I want my children to love my city, and I want the city to be the best that it can be,” Ramos said in an interview about her nascent 2025 bid. “This campaign is my love letter to the city.”
