.@sarahana was 9 when she witnessed the uprising in Nepal. Afterwards, she remembers returning home to see how a single public road transformed her community. She continues the fight for public goods today, leading the @publicpowerny campaign.

by the way “there isn’t political will” is a euphemism for “my campaign donors won’t like it”

you will neverrrr catch me thanking the mayor for arts events sponsored by developers, whose property values skyrocket with each NYT article, when I know his spine goes limp when it comes to holding these same sponsors accountable for affordable housing for current residents

it hurts when cool art things happen in Jersey City because while I try to enjoy them I know they’re not for me and my friends who were raised here, but for the local real estate mega-corp’s bottom line

A reminder that victory would be George Floyd being alive. Every day Black Americans worry if they will be next is another day without justice.

[ACLU of New Jersey @ACLUNJ]

We must keep fighting for racial justice in the names of George Floyd and of so many who died at the hands of the police.

We must root out racism in law enforcement, scrutinize every police dollar spent, and reimagine what true public safety means for all.

We must. And we will.

Nepal set a global precedent with a third gender category on official documents.

@BishForCongress Wait until y’all find out what Hipaa has always had clauses for public health emergencies. Wait until you find out people have been having to show their kid’s vaccine cards for 30 years to register them for school. Wait until you find out about employment based Heath screenings.
