Citizens protecting New York's Air --

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

New York is home to 8 million people, and all of us need to breathe clean air. Sadly, 3,200 New Yorkers will die this year from air pollution. You can help stop this today! visit https://t.co/Bz0RzWs8D7 to learn more.

@jmassengale @Street_Design @SpeakerMenin @RidersAlliance @350brooklyn @TransAlt @foodandwater @ReinventAlbany @NYPIRG @Chekpeds @StreetsPAC @airnyc @Queens_Climate @OpenPlans @NY4P @Earthjustice @families48834 @citizensenviro Excellent reminders about the dangers of our current built environment! We need to decarbonize now.

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

Now 25 groups oppose Intro. 561-A's threat to our air quality. @SpeakerMenin needs to listen and PULL THE BILL.

Everyone who is anyone agrees: Abandon Intro 561-A, not New Yorkers

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

@CommunityPACT Calling 311 is completely ineffective--takes days for anyone to show up, then the idling is gone. The only thing that works is the Citizens Air Complaint Program: see https://t.co/Iyqm7q1bN6 for more.

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

This is the only bill that should pass from yesterday's hearing--and even then, @NYCMayor and @NYCWater could make it unnecessary *today* by simply actually welcoming all New Yorkers and accepting complaints in English.

[CommunityPact @CommunityPACT]

🗳️ COMMUNITY OPINION: Queens' air complaint portal is English-only. Int 0048-2026 would translate it into all NYC languages so every resident can report truck exhaust & fumes. Drop ✅ or ❌. https://t.co/N8rgSZqkDJ #Queens #CommunityPact

@SpeakerMenin @NYCCouncil @NYLPI @NRDC Too many allies to tag in one post! Together, we can protect New Yorkers' right to protect our air.

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

We need clean air, not corporate lobbyists' wishlists!

That's the message 25 environmental and civic groups delivered yesterday to @SpeakerMenin and the @NYCCouncil--reject Intro. 561-A and stop harming our air.

Thanks to @NYLPI @NRDC for their powerful testimony as well!

[CHEKPEDS @Chekpeds]

Huge show of solidarity by clean air advocates at the council hearings of a law that would gut the idling program. It lasted until 4:45 pm ! Really uplifting. @NY_Clean_Air

[CHEKPEDS @Chekpeds]

Bravo to @ReinventAlbany for a crisp testimony against intro 561-A.

[🚲Peter W Beadle🚲 @pwbnyc]

This bill is absurd. If anything we should be increasing enforcement but weakening the current idling regulations.

Citizens holding people accountable for illegal behavior? Count us in!

Inspired by @StreetsblogNYC’s article, I'm introducing the 50 States of Placard Fraud Contest. Document NYC employees displaying placards with out-of-state plates. NJ/CT = 1 point, PA = 2, everywhere else = 3.

Ordinary New Yorkers and @NYCWater teamed up to make Amazon pay up for polluting our City.

But now @SpeakerMenin wants to force this administration to give polluters a $60-$200 million hand out and free pass to pollute our air. https://t.co/fbxoOdNEme

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Amazon is worth $2 trillion. But it didn't deign to pay the millions of dollars it racked up in unpaid fines as its’ trucks illegally polluted our air and forced New Yorkers to breathe in their exhaust. 

We collected every dollar they owe the people of this city — and will continue to hold them accountable. In New York, corporations are held to the same standard as everyone else. 

No company — no matter how large or powerful — is above the law.

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

Twenty-five environmental & civic groups are standing together to oppose the deadly bill Intro. 561-A that @SpeakerMenin is insisting get a hearing this Tuesday.

This is the same move @Josh4Jersey is trying in Congress: poison New York's kids for corporate $$$. @AOC @NYCMayor

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

@SpeakerMenin @NYCCouncil Really wish you would stand with whistleblowers and against Intro. 561-A. This bill has no place at Tuesday's hearing.

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

Twenty-four environmental & civic groups agree: Intro. 561-A is a deadly threat to New York's air quality. https://t.co/fbxoOdOcbM

But @SpeakerMenin is pushing this industry-backed bill (with zero cosponsors) towards hearing on Tuesday.

Traffic fatalities have become such a regular occurrence that an infant killed by an intoxicated driver doesn’t even produce a peep from @NYCMayor.

Please sign and share this important petition to not let Speaker Menin and our city government send us back to the dirty, polluting 1970s.

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

Don't look now, but it's up to 23 environmental and good government groups now opposing Intro. 561-A, which will nuke the air in NYC. Yet @SpeakerMenin still wants to bring this truck and bus-industry giveaway up for a hearing.

[NYC Climate Package @ClimatePackage]

BREAKING: Fifteen Key Groups Say it Clear - Intro 561-A is a menace to NYers’ health and the environment. Will @JulieMenin be the hero who stops this or the villain who enables it?

[New York Clean Air Collective @NY_Clean_Air]

@_streeter @LincolnRestler Join the 23 groups and counting @LincolnRestler -- Oppose Intro. 561-A and call on @SpeakerMenin to show she stands for clean air by killing this poison pill once and for all.

Stop Speaker Menin from giving a free pass to polluters—Oppose Intro. 561-A https://t.co/ICMFlnPp0i via @Change
