May the memory of the 250 journalists murdered in Gaza be honored in the **Genocide Museum** that must be part of the reparations program owed to the Palestinians, when the genocide actually ends. PS. Deleting a killed journalist's account is to kill them twice.

AI contracts did NOT pass PEP in tonight’s vote. Thnx to all who wrote in & the parents , teacher & student who came to speak. The AI juggernaut can indeed be stopped with enough organized resistance! Also good reso passed on need for more school space for smaller classes.

.Sen. Mike Gianaris says Mamdani will need help from Albany — and he’ll get it. “I’m here tonight to tell you, he has got partners in the state government who are gonna work to enact this agenda in January.”

I love the small businesses in my district! They face constant threats from predatory landlords, inflation, and displacement. But still they show up to hold our community together. I’m fighting to pass commercial rent stabilization to give them the stability they deserve.

If at least 26 billionaires can waste at least $27 million trying to defeat Zohran Mamdani, then those same billionaires can afford to pay an extra 2% on their income over $1 million to make New York a better, thriving city for everyone — including themselves.

What a night! It was such a treat to be welcomed in Park Slope by my friends Brad Lander & Shahana Hanif for a conversation about commercial rent stabilization. Local businesses are the fabric of our neighborhoods. Protecting them—and tenants—is how we to fight displacement.

“It’s not about students, it’s not about teachers & it’s certainly not about learning. It’s about billionaire-owned tech companies – some of the most extractive & oppressive companies in modern history – making a cynical push to keep their bubble of hype &over-valuation inflated”

DOE declared roughly 10,500 classes in more than hundred schools exempt from lowering class size w/o mentioning this in their class size plan submitted to the state in July nor telling their principals. Without this, compliance rate was just under 60% benchmark required by law.

NYC teachers on the difference smaller classes make this year: "When I assign writing, I can give detailed feedback that actually helps students improve. .. It’s the difference between surviving & actually being able to teach.” abettercontract.org/p/it-comes-dow…
