How can we meaningfully address the NY housing crisis? Fund #RightToCounsel.

Funding #RTC means providing all tenants with free legal representation to help protect our housing rights.

Thank you, @cmshaunabreu, for breaking it down and staying in the fight for NYers every day.

[Tina Luongo @TMLuongo]

Budgets are statements of values. Funding NYPD 11 Billion + millions more overtime while NYC Public Defenders are in crisis is a values problem fueled by a belief that the people we represent don’t deserve justice. ⁦This must change in this budget. https://t.co/2dYRfJhRKN

❗️Last night, @NYCMayor signed Executive Order 402, which will suspend critical protections of NY’s Right to Shelter laws, as well as tenant due process rights.❗️

We are currently evaluating order and considering all of our options, including litigation. https://t.co/K8oUwe9pFW

"@GovKathyHochul's housing plan failed to include immediate protections, despite her acknowledgment of the crisis.

The Legislature must step up and ensure that any final budget includes this needed measure."

@LegalAidNYC lawyers like @AttorneysWSwag are superheroes & must have competitive wages to do their jobs. Low-income New Yorkers deserve it & the Constitution requires it. @GovKathyHochul & @NYCMayor must fund us same as prosecutors. Justice demands it.
