Landlords don't "provide housing", they restrict housing. The housing already exists; landlords just make it much harder for the people who need it to access it.

[Right to Counsel NYC Coalition #EvictionFreeNY @RTCNYC]

Buffalo tenants need a #RightToCounsel! @GovKathyHochul, we urge you to pass and fully fund Statewide Right to Counsel (A7570/S6678) in the FY 2024 budget to ensure ALL NYers have the right to a free attorney in housing court and can remain in their homes!

Starbucks has filed charges against us twice before, and both were dismissed by the NLRB without merit.

Meanwhile, the agency is prosecuting Starbucks for hundreds of labor law violations, and the company has received guilty verdicts from multiple NLRB judges to date.

Jenna is the 16th union supporter fired in Buffalo; her notice of separation includes ‘absences’ on days she found coverage to attend her cousin’s memorial services.
