Great evening with @AnaMariaforNY @Jasgripper along with @clairecousin106 hearing about how we can build the power of the multi-racial working class in the Capital Region! Thanks to Johnnie’s on Broadway for having us and DJ Stef for heating up the dance floor!🔥🔥🔥

It's great to see the @timesunion editorial board support Universal School Lunch. Keeping kids from being hungry should be an easy policy choice! https://t.co/H6pK4vNuZB @TimesUnion

We can close budget gaps and #InvestInOurNewYork if corporations and the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share. @GovKathyHochul must put everyday New Yorkers and their families first!

"Moderates in the GOP who went along with Mr. Johnson’s selection as speaker on Wednesday say they chose him based on what they believe he’ll do going forward, not on his past actions or positions. That took quite a lot of overlooking: (1/2)

🚨 ENDORSEMENT ROUND-UP 🚨

I’m proud to have been endorsed for Assembly District 106 by four fantastic progressive powerhouses: @NYWFP @ForTheMany @tenantspacny @runforsomething!

[WFP Capital District @CapitalWFP]

Excellent op-ed from @OwusuAlbany in today’s Times Union. Thank you to the Common Council for working to find solutions to Albany’s affordable housing crisis. https://t.co/zcYYn73XWd

[WFP Capital District @CapitalWFP]

The Common Council is the voice of the people of Albany, and the Capital District WFP stands behind the Council. We applaud the Council for working to find real solutions to Albany's affordable housing crisis rather than cozying up to developers.

[Albany Mayor Kathy Sheehan @MayorSheehan]

I am very frustrated that the Common Council's ill-advised legislation that increased inclusionary zoning minimums continues to prevent the creation of new market-rate housing across the City of Albany, including the redevelopment of Central Warehouse.
