We are now just like the real estate industry's influence on Albany. Unchecked.

[New York City Council @NYCCouncil]

Reproductive justice and bodily autonomy are human rights, and abortion access is here to stay in our city. Mifepristone is available at clinics and hospitals across the five boroughs.

For help finding abortion care in NYC, call 1-877-NYC-AHUB or visit https://t.co/Stha70eJO9

Alright, @NYTimes 👏

If this budget is truly about making New York more affordable and livable then we must #FixTheMTA and that means getting to #6minuteservice 🚆

[Working Families Party 🐺 @WorkingFamilies]

Things you can thank a union for:

-Weekends
-Breaks at work
-Paid vacation
-Minimum wage
-An 8-hour workday
-Overtime pay
-Child labor laws
-Sick leave
-Employer-based health coverage

Don’t have some of these? Maybe it’s time to form a union.

THREAD: In all the lies over bail reform, we so easily lose sight of the people who benefit from freedom. 100,000s more free who get to experience the everyday normalcy & joys of freedom.

People like Jon, Sandy, & Frank. "Freedom to me is just life." https://t.co/MOWvoarjyF

[Michal Mendelson🐺 @aethelflaed2]

Yes

[Michal Mendelson🐺 @aethelflaed2]

@NYCMayor Are they going to check their phones and hassle street vendors and file for overtime like their human counterparts? You are slashing budgets for essential services for this crap?

[Syracuse Tenants Union @UnionSyracuse]

Kerryann had lived in her Tipp Hill home for 9 years when her landlord unexpectedly forced her to leave so that he could remodel the home to "get more rent from someone else."
#TenantsCantWait We need #GoodCause in Upstate NY to protect tenants against holdover evictions!

[Teddy #CANCELRENT @tthoma24]

Budget delays might not be a big deal for our electeds, but it’s life or death for us tenants. Ask @GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie: will they stand up for what’s right and pass #GoodCause and #HAVP in the budget now? #TenantsCantWait https://t.co/WhIecnvRqG 8/8

[Michal Mendelson🐺 @aethelflaed2]

We need protections from predatory rent hikes! Every day that NY waits to pass #GoodCause and #HAVP, more families will be thrown out onto the street.

@GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie @Iwen4NY @LesterforNY : it’s time to address the housing crisis. #TenantsCantWait

[Michal Mendelson🐺 @aethelflaed2]

I am part of the 90% of New York state voters worried about affordable housing. We have a solution to the affordability crisis: pass #GoodCause so tenants can fight back against rent hikes. #TenantsCantWait. https://t.co/LLiyuIQ9Tl

Machines are selling only single rides at 45th Street R. Maybe you should just prop the gate open @MTA

[Mark D. Levine @MarkLevineNYC]

NYC's excellent program distributing free covid home tests has been made possible by federal assistance. But this assistance will end on May 11 when the emergency order expires.

You still have time to get your free test! Updated list of pick-up locations across the five boros:

[National Council of Jewish Women @NCJW]

This is the week in which Jews celebrate liberation— and our sacred story itself, the biblical book of Exodus, begins its tale of oppression with reproductive injustice.

Our obligation is a free world for everyone.

Abortion justice is a Jewish value.

[Alana Sivin 史蘭娜 @_AlanaSivin]

Watch this incredibly powerful video. Bail reform is allowing caregivers (like the amazing @JonMcfarlane!) students, and families THRIVE.

Call your legislator, urge them to #ProtectBailReform

[Lydia Green @LydiaGreenBK]

Today, the first day of Passover, would be an excellent time for @GovKathyHochul to drop her support for cash bail and let our (impoverished, incarcerated) people go!
