Talk this AM with @RepAOC and @SenTinaSmith about #socialhousing - and how housing financialization has harmed people, extracted untold wealth, and destroyed communities - is a breath of fresh air. Go @amprog -keep the focus on real solutions rooted in economic democracy.

What’s the @NotOnOurDimeNY Act, you ask? Here you go:

[Not On Our Dime @notonourdimeny]

Not On Our Dime is the first bill to actively support Palestinian freedom in New York. This is urgent: since October, NY charities have funneled millions to Israeli military units devastating Gaza and settlers expelling Palestinians from their homes across the West Bank.

[Sarah Ludwig @SILudwig]

You could actually feel the NYS Capitol levitating today as more than 300 New Yorkers chanted #FreePalestine on the Million Dollar Staircase and called for passage of @NotOnOurDimeNY. Thanks to @jvpliveNY and others for such a productive and well-coordinated lobby day.

[Jewish Voice for Peace NYC @jvpliveNY]

Today we're joining hundreds of New Yorkers with @NotOnOurDimeNY at the New York State Capitol to call on our elected representatives to sign onto the Not On Our Dime! Act.

This bill would stop New York State charities from funding Israeli war crimes.

Jumping on to share some @NewEconomyNYC news: https://t.co/UF4c67ivmQ

[New Economy Project @NewEconomyNYC]

Fraudulent debt collection is yet another way Wall Street extracts wealth from Black & brown communities.

That’s why @NewYorkStateAG has joined our appeal as amicus, challenging debt collector's blatant violation of our client Sharae Banks’ civil rights.

[Public Bank NYC @PublicBankNYC]

📻@NYCComptroller just now on @BrianLehrer:

"There's legislation in Albany that would allow localities in NY to have deposits in a public bank so we can leverage them for investments in affordable housing, small biz, or access to financial services. I support that legislation."

[Demos @Demos_Org]

Our case study w/ @NewEconomyNYC lays out the path forward.

Thanks to Ann Goldweber and Darlene Mottley @QLSnews for a great panel discussion today on segregation and housing inequality @StJohnsLaw’s anti-racism conference. Our co-dir @SILudwig spoke about ways that public policies have created and perpetuated racial wealth inequality.

[New Economy Project @NewEconomyNYC]

Proud to convene the @EquityAgendaNY, a powerful and growing statewide coalition advancing economic democracy and racial justice in New York. The coalition has its sights set on major wins in 2023. Learn more: https://t.co/jt4cieuxmi

See our @SILudwig on Capital Tonight with @sarbetter:

The @EquityAgendaNY coalition is working to “flip on its head the way New York has been doing top-down development and have policies that support community wealth building.” #PublicBanking #CDFIs #CLTs

This happened! Thanks to @ErrolLouis for supporting @NewEconomyNYC and for letting people know about our work, along with other great organizations making a difference in NYC.

[New Economy Project @NewEconomyNYC]

Thanks so much for the shoutout, Errol! All of us here at New Economy Project really appreciate your support.

[New Economy Project @NewEconomyNYC]

We're taking on ambitious campaigns to transform our economy, by bringing land, housing, and finance into democratic community control.

This #GivingTuesday, consider making a donation to support our groundbreaking campaigns and legal advocacy. https://t.co/PLlzkBkKX5

[Senator Liz Krueger @LizKrueger]

Public banking ensures public money actually works for the public good. That's why I support the New York Public Banking Act (S1762B/A8290A), carried by @JSandersNYC and @PatriciaFahy109, to allow NYC and other municipalities in our state to create public banks.

[New Economy Project @NewEconomyNYC]

With a public bank, we can ensure that public dollars work for the public good. Instead of lining private pockets, our money would build collective community wealth.

Watch this powerful new video to learn more and take action with @EquityAgendaNY @PublicBankNYC @rocpublicbank.
