🚨ACTION ALERT🚨: Mayor Eric Adams wants to expand already bloated NYPD spending. Click to email your council member to demand New York City Council take action for #NYCBudgetJustice and invest in services that truly benefit our communities instead: bit.ly/FY25BudgetJust… #CareNotCriminalization

⚡️Act now!⚡️ Call on the New York City Council to act for #NYCBudgetJustice! NYC must invest in communities, NOT expand the $12B NYPD budget. ▶️▶️▶️ Cut #NYPD’s press budget by 50%, remove NYPD from mental health response, #DisbandSRG, and block the creation of NY Cop City

We are extremely disappointed and disturbed by the decision of Chancellor Melissa Aviles-Ramos to remove 1 of the best CEC presidents to ever hold the seat. We’re your School Board #CEC14 ❤️ #CareNotCuts has been an excellent CEC & this removal is disrespectful to their tireless free labor for their public school communities

interviewed tajh for a assignment on disciplinary practices in schools. they’re cool people and an important advocate for blk & brwn kids in nyc. some of the stuff they shared shows me exactly why nyc doe was probably chomping at the bit to clear them out from their position.

“We will not stand for any cuts to anything. And we are here to say stop Cop City as well,” says AQE New York (aqeny.bsky.social)’s Zakiyah Shaakir-Ansari with the #CareNotCuts coalition. “Since entering office Mayor Adams has cut the budget seven times!”

Oh my god Jews for Racial & Economic Justice Action has a life sized Eric Adams cutout at the Brooklyn library and kids are asking him why it’s closed. Adams is cooked.

I understand it’s sensational because of the Mayoral race, but it’s wild how Politico took an issue being almost exclusively fought for by women and women of color in the Council and made it about men. politico.com/news/2024/06/2…

Proud to stand with our allies this morning to call on Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani to invest in early childhood education! The final budget must include $$ for 3-K and pre-K, preschool special education classes & services, and Promise NYC.

Wealthy opponents tried to defeat us because I wouldn’t fold on McGuinness. Then outside money flooded in, hoping to take out an enemy of corporate power in Albany. I won >75% of the vote. Finish the redesign, Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani.

Banning masks has nothing to do with preventing crime. Japan has one of the lowest crime rates in the world, and everyone there wears a mask regularly.

In response to Governor Hochul's and Mayor Adams's push to ban masks, NYC DYKE MARCH has updated its policies to require masks.

NY Governor Hochul is not only banning masks, she is ending sick leave for COVID. Shame. hellgatenyc.com/governor-hochu…

Damning exposé of dangerous & growing police impunity under Eric Adams & how NYPD is blocking/burying discipline cases against cops who drag women by their hair, choke & brutalize NYers. MUST read by Eric Umansky in this joint NYT/ProPublica piece propublica.org/article/nypd-c…

33 NYC grassroots, advocacy & legal orgs have signed a letter denouncing Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani’s plans for a $225M mega-police training facility that would entrench NYPD practices of over-policing & criminalization across 18 city agencies: changethenypd.org/releases/grass… #StopCopCityNYC #NYCBudget

“W/ days left before budget vote, Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani hasn’t budged on his✂️s. New York City Council, we support you in whatever you must do, whatever tools you must use, to win a #PeoplesBudget. Whether you negotiate w the mayor or amend the budget, we’re behind you. But we’re tired of his games.”

Yesterday MTA notified us that due to Governor Kathy Hochul 's attack on congestion pricing, they will not be moving forward w/ an elevator at Nostrand Ave, which serves over 35k people a day and connects to the LIRR. My constituents in Bed-Stuy & Crown Heights deserve better.

Every child should have access to high-quality early childhood education, including children with disabilities and children from immigrant families.

🧵THREAD: ACT UP NY firmly stands against any legislative action banning masks, including State Assembly bill A10057, State Senate bill S9687, & any as-of-yet proposals. Proponents of these bills say immunocompromised people shouldn't be gathering in large crowds at a protest.

Mayor Adams has raised the rent for 2M+ rent-stabilized New Yorkers every chance he’s gotten. I was arrested last week protesting as the Rent Guidelines Board held a sham hearing to rubber-stamp Mayor Adams’ third consecutive rent hike on working class New Yorkers.
