I’m with Carmen De La Rosa. Families can’t get their mail and students can’t get placed in school. These shelter stay limits aren’t helping. They’re destabilizing and no family or child can get ahead like this. City Hall should end them, now.

The next presidential debate is Tuesday, and we need ABC moderators to ask Harris & Trump about overdose! ABC News David Muir Linsey Davis - the country deserves to hear how our next president will address our skyrocketing overdose crisis. Sign the petition: engage.drugpolicy.org/secure/abc-new…

Trump did this and the Fraternal Order of Police has endorsed him. x.com/WeHearPodcast/…

50 million people have now gotten health care coverage thanks to the Affordable Care Act. That’s something we’ll always be proud of. Health care is not, and never will be, a privilege — it’s a right. And I'm grateful for the work that Joe and Kamala continue to do to improve the

NYPD shot 4 people, including one of their own officers, over a $2.90 fare evasion. They shot at someone over $2.90. This is what we mean when we say police protect property (wealth), not people.

Let me get this straight: the NYPD opened fire on the subway yesterday in an attempt to stop a man who evaded the $2.90 fare (?), and in the process they ended up shooting him, 2 bystanders, and another cop? The caption accompanied by the community note below is *wild*.

If CityFHEPS expansion laws had been implemented in January 2024, many in the youth shelter system would have a voucher. We would have created capacity in the system for those needing shelter & put young people on a pathway towards permanent housing. thecity.nyc/2024/09/16/nyc…

Your officer was shot by another officer while trying to arrest someone for suspected fare evasion. That officer also shot two other random people who were just in the subway.

Eric Adams leads with corruption and mismanagement. 15+ of his associates are now under investigation. If his track record of cutting critical services and empowering NYPD abuse didn’t make it clear: Eric Adams is unfit to govern. NY deserves better. It’s time for him to resign.

The NYPD spent $150 Million *extra* last year to catch people who weren't able to afford to pay the subway fare. They owed just $104,000. $150 million could buy free fares (at going rate) for 95,000 poor New Yorkers per year. Instead four people shot, including an officer.

"As NY continue to die of overdoses, Governor Kathy Hochul has resisted calls to declare a public health emergency." This gov has no plan with goals/metrics & health policies to ⬇️ ods. She says she's deploying resources - those on the ground beg to differ. thecity.nyc/2024/09/16/opi…

Undocumented immigrants pay $32 BILLION into Social Security and Medicare every single year — even though they aren’t eligible to receive those benefits. Don’t listen to Republican lies. Immigrants are hugely beneficial to our economy and our country.

If this isn’t an argument for free public transit, I don’t know what is.

Does this help folk understand why so many of us attack the amount of funding going to the NYPD? The Department is corrupt from top to bottom. And the recently resigned police commissioner made it an informal policy to dismiss recommended sanctions for abuse.

Today, I introduced a resolution with the co-chairs of the Haiti Caucus to condemn the hateful and bigoted attacks on our Haitian brothers, sisters, and siblings coming from MAGA extremist leaders. The Haitian community is beautiful, resilient, and diverse—and deserves common

New York City Hall right now feels like an episode of Scandal. Let’s talk about why Eric Adams needs to resign.

The lies spread about Haitians in Springfield, Ohio by Trump and Vance are racist and xenophobic. Full stop. We must stand united against efforts to dehumanize immigrants and people of color.

There is no evidence that police in the subways are lowering crime. What we do know: NYPD is swallowing up valuable resources, harassing New Yorkers, making needless arrests, & engaging in violent & reckless confrontations on the subway. Some research and stats.

I hate to say this, but I am deleting X. All I get is a steady stream of right wing and pro-Trump propaganda. This is no longer a place for reasonable or thoughtful discourse.
