In her budget, Governor Kathy Hochul has put a target on the back of tenants by rolling back rent-stabilization protections.
In the City budget, Mayor Eric Adams must invest $2B to ensure that NYC does not lose one unit of permanently affordable housing.

New City Limits: 'New Yorkers can finally review the details of a major state housing deal that temporarily extends new eviction defenses to certain renters, depending on factors like their apartment’s location, age, ownership and cost.'

We stand with NYCCLI, Office of the Public Advocate Jumaane D. Williams, New Economy Project, Office of New York City Comptroller Brad Lander & advocates to call for the Community Land Act and #HomesNowHomesforGenerations .
We need affordable housing that remains affordable - where private equity can’t raise prices on the backs of working-class New Yorkers.
Our Office of New York City Comptroller Brad Lander Office of the Public Advocate Jumaane D. Williams and New York City Council Progressives are here in full force to support community control of land and housing!
We have poured out in the rain to call on City Council to pass the #Communitylandact and adopt #HomesNowHomesforGenerations !
200,000 Black New Yorkers have been pushed out of this city. We must take land & housing off the speculative market & bring it into community control!
This Thurs 10am!

Hochul’s proposal would exclude at least 2.8 million renters from Good Cause.
Since the governor will not willingly work for the many, Carl E. Heastie and Sen. Stewart-Cousins must be bold and make her.
If not, not only will evictions increase; so too will the power of the MAGA right.
ANALYSIS: More than 2.8 million tenants would be excluded by Governor Kathy Hochul's #GoodCause ,making it the weakest Good Cause law in the country.
This housing deal will also decimate current protections for rent stabilized tenants. housingjusticeforall.org/analysis-at-le…

MEANWHILE in #NYC at #CITYHALL .. The #ABOLISHtheTAXLIENSALE Coalition held a RALLY to Abolish the Tax Lien Sale for good. The Tax Lien Sale has been weaponized to take away community equity and displaced community residents.
#ABOLISHtheTAXLIENSALE
It’s time to abolish the tax lien sale! Let’s end the practice of selling out our communities when they fall behind. Let’s help homeowners keep their hard earned homes, not accelerate their foreclosure. #AbolishTheTaxLienSale
