Grateful to @nytimes for taking a serious look at a bold idea for New York.

What if the people who create New York’s culture could share in its value?

Read the full article at the link in our bio — and tell us what you think.

$13 barely buys you lunch in New York – working people need a real raise.

@GovKathyHochul’s minimum wage proposal falls short. Call her office and urge her to #RaisetheWage to $21.25 by 2026: https://t.co/8pn8qEnPlE

Anti-drag laws have been introduced in AZ, AR, FL, ID, KS, KY, MO, MT, NE, OK, SC, TX, and WV to “protect kids.”

Child marriage is legal in 12 of these 13 states.

Republicans are dressing up and pretending to be good people who care about our kids while protecting child rape.

“The cost of parking is being put onto renters,” Lind said in an interview. “We know that low-income renters are less likely to own a car so they are basically subsidizing the cost of parking for higher income people.”

It’s time to lift mandates in NYC https://t.co/cT71lgiSzg

@noahmichelson Done. Don’t know if I can frame them cause I’ll want to actually play with them.

SIGN TO SUPPORT W 83rd ST SAFE HAVEN. Some of our neighbors oppose shelter*w/ staff* for street homeless that they walk past every day & have for decades. You know their faces. Arguments of proximity to schools and lax rules are a false premise. https://t.co/fWS3n8t8nG

It's been months since Schools Chancellor David Banks pledged a "rapid response team" to stabilize NYC's early childcare system, but providers are still waiting for overdue payments. We need to demand better for our children and their caregivers. https://t.co/RLssNPtyJx

Yet another reason to❤️⁦⁦@kaj33⁩ “When it comes to choosing between storing a championship ring or trophy in a room, or providing kids with an opportunity to change their lives, the choice is pretty simple. Sell it all.” https://t.co/H1tgX60V5j

Sen. Machaela Cavanaugh is a HERO

"I will burn the session to the ground over this bill,"
@senatormachaela said of a bill that would ban gender-affirming therapies for minors

Now if only other elected officials would step up like this...

I spoke up against the book banning efforts targeting 65 books (incl Shout) in the Central Bucks School District (PA) at the school board meeting tonight. Happy to support readers, their families & educators! #FReadom @aclupa @PENamerica @CBSDSchools

I once lost an apt between lease signing & move in cause management changed hands in the middle of the night. I'd already given them all the $ I didn't have. Landlord got paid 2x & rented it to someone else for more $. 1 of my many renter nightmare stories. I feel you @OsseChi.

Chi Ossé, 24, became the youngest member of the New York City Council in 2021. Now, he faces a new test: finding an apartment in the city.

He described his search as “tiring, treacherous, and competitive.”

The #NYStateSenate #OneHouseBudget is looking real good:
✅Housing - #goodcause #HAVP
✅Climate - leading the nation in investment
✅Childcare - speaks for itself IMHO
Let's keep the good vibes going through 3/31 when the final budget is due! (or sometime soon thereafter....)😉
