The budget cuts that Mayor Eric Adams is pushing would REVERSE the progress NYC has made toward ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic. ⏮️ We hope New York City Council will stand strong against cuts that undermine public health.

Mayor Adams’ proposed budget includes funding to continue many important education programs, but others are still at risk of deep cuts. Email city leaders and ask them to save education programs that are providing critical support to students & families! actionnetwork.org/letters/fy25-c…

Thank you Brooklyn! I will continue to strive to be an effective advocate for our learning communities, and am deeply grateful for the trust and confidence you place in me.

🚨BREAKING NEWS: NY LEGISLATURE IS NOT VOTING TONIGHT ON HOCHUL’S PLAN TO KILL CONGESTION PRICING They do not have the votes (yet)! Call your state senator & assemblymember first thing in the morning and tell them to save congestion pricing and vote NO on Hochul’s absurd plan!

Thank you, Class Size Matters for a wonderful evening of community! I'm grateful for the recognition and will continue to do my utmost to serve the students of our city!

I'm OUTRAGED that Mayor Eric Adams has slashed budgets 6x & continues to underinvest in programs my neighbors & I depend on. That's why I contacted him, my New York City Council & Adrienne Adams to demand a People's Budget w/ #CareNotCuts! Email them now: actionnetwork.org/letters/fy25pe… peoplesplannyc.bsky.social
