Today our members PROUDLY endorse Phara Souffrant Forrest for re-election.
She continues to champion the rights of tenants, as well as expanding access to healthcare & reforms to the carceral system. This year, let’s get even more legislation passed!
The brutality we witnessed last night now is what happens when a mass movement rises up with a message that people in power want to silence and violently repress.
Our statement from Audrey Sasson, on behalf of Jews For Racial & Economic Justice:

The new state budget includes $8 million for mental health court in order to combat crime caused by mental illnesses. #ADemandForJustice
As Chair of the Taskforce on New Americans, Rockefeller Institute Institute on Immigrant Integration (IIIRP) has been an invaluable resource and partner in the work of creating smart policy solutions that will benefit our entire state! So excited to speak at their conference!

Honored to receive a citation recognizing #BrooklynLegalServices contributions to #immigrant and #TenantRights advocacy from
Phara Souffrant Forrest. It's an honor to receive the recognition, but also to be able to serve New Yorkers in District 57 and across NYC!
It was great to speak Brooklyn Public Library Black Maternal Mental Health symposium and bring some of my advocacy and Albany know-how back home to my Black Brooklyn mamas and fellow nurses!!! ✊🏾🩺🍼
A very real moment: During my State of the District, I really wanted to yell out “Can someone please get your kid?!” but realized the kid belonged to me. 😫😥 #NoHomeTraining
