City leaders have the power to strengthen public institutions! Read more in today's @NYDailyNews op-ed about why now is a crucial moment to invest in public libraries: https://t.co/M2seC7BRU2
If it's June, then we must be fighting to save our city's library system. Again. We do this because our libraries aren’t just about books – they are tabernacles of freedom and democracy. Our libraries are a lighthouse for kids, parents, new immigrants, and seniors.
I will continue to fight for an equitable budget that meets the needs of those who need the city's support the most. But we need every voice now more than ever to make that happen. Join me this Sunday and tell the Mayor #NoCutsforLibraries
Our libraries need your help to stop $58.3m in budget cuts that will slash programming and shutter doors on weekends (even during heat waves). Join @NYCCouncil this Sunday at 11:30am at @BKLYNlibrary's Walt Whitman branch to tell the mayor #NoCutsToLibraries 📚
We ❤️ NYC! Brooklyn Public Library staff are showing up on the Library stairs to remind City leaders: #NoCutsToLibraries! Thank you to the thousands of New Yorkers supporting Libraries today & every day.
Want to get involved? It's not too late! Share now: https://t.co/sqp0SOCbsv
The doors of the library are open to everyone, but with further cuts being proposed by the admin, those doors could be open only 5 days a week. Join the Day of Action for Libraries and send a clear message: #NoCutsToLibraries! @nypl@BKLYNlibrary@QPLNYC https://t.co/jnP4e6wQsG
Libraries are community hubs that provide vital programs for New Yorkers, like adult education classes, toddler storytime, reading programs, workforce development, and more.
The Council will continue to fight to restore and baseline funding for our libraries. #NoCutstoLibraries
Thank you, Speaker Adams, Finance Chair Brannan, Libraries Chair Rivera and the entire City Council for prioritizing NYC’s libraries in the Preliminary Budget Response. Your recognition of the vital role libraries play in the lives of all New Yorkers is deeply appreciated.
Thank you @NYCCouncil for calling for the restoration of proposed cuts to Libraries in the Council’s Response to the FY2024 Preliminary Budget @NYCSpeakerAdams@JustinBrannan@CMChiOsse https://t.co/nUwobJpc9n
We also owe a debt of gratitude to the team at the Brooklyn Library, and everyone who is helping make sure that readers across the country have access to great books.

Maddow: If Trump is going to keep lying like he has been every day on stuff this important, we should, all of us, stop broadcasting it. Honestly, it's going to cost lives.
