TY to everyone for continuing to contact your NYS Assemblymembers and Senators about the NYC Telework Act! Find your representatives on here to see if they have publicly supported these bills - S5536 in the Senate and A457 in the Assembly (and tag them while you're at it!)
We haven’t been really active here, however that doesn’t mean we’re inactive behind the scenes. We’re still organizing to improve the working conditions for the largest city workforce in the country.
At our pre-election meetup, we collectively discussed our suggestions for the mayoral, city comptroller, and public advocate races. We believe that these candidates are not only allies to city workers but have the right vision in place to move our city forward with integrity.
I believe in redemption but our State’s broken parole system & sentencing laws do not. Instead they unjustly condemn New Yorkers. We must reform them by passing:
✅Fair and Timely Parole
✅Elder Parole
✅Second Look Act
✅Earned Time Act
✅Challenging Wrongful Conviction Act
Protest is a right, civil disobedience, a powerful tool. And arrest at some point is a part of elevating the message.
Yet @Columbia threatening the educational futures of students through suspension, for raising their voices in nonviolent action—the speed, force, and justification of sending police suggests unnaceptably that the actions were more about the message than means of protest.
We’ve rarely been active on Elon’s machine, so we encourage you to follow our Ig. We also encourage you to visit our most recent post.

Adams is going to slash the education budget and then ask the same parents who are harmed by the cuts to fill in gaps at schools as volunteers. Working families are already struggling, they can't afford to pick up the slack for Adams and his failure to invest in our schools.
Join our picket outside City Hall this Wednesday before Stated (12:30-1:30pm) to defend a fair grievance policy for all Council staff! ✊
Can't make it? Wear your ALE merch in solidarity! Take a photo with your co-workers & tag us @nyccouncilunion on Twitter or Instagram.

🎉Happy International Street Vendors Day !
From the tamaleras of Bushwick to the souvenir vendors of Times Square, street vendors fold our city’s unrivaled diversity into our streets & sidewalks
Today we celebrate our city's smallest businesses for their vital contributions!
We deserve the same protections as other NYC workers. It's time to end at-will employment, @NYCSpeakerAdams.

@CityWorkers4NYC@NYCMayor@NYCDCAS@GovKathyHochul Highlight of my day taking twice the time and 4 trains to get to work, then wading from the station. Every alert was sent too late. Then watching the presser to hear the mayor say to stay home. Also too late. I was just told I could leave but there isn't a train to Brooklyn.
Following the Mayor's xenophobic remarks last week - where he said migrants would “destroy NYC,” he announced budget cuts & a hiring freeze to decimate city services.
Our city is facing a crisis - fueled by the Mayor’s rhetoric and poor policy choices.

Eric Adams wants you to trust that saying that migrants are destroying NYC, and then ordering city services to be slashed, is somehow going to help NYC.
Good luck with that, buddy!

This 🤡 created this chaos with his austerity budget. He is now using families seeking asylum as a scapegoat for our city being in crisis. The playbook is old but our memories are long. There is a reason y Neo-nazis r cheering this 🤡. Show him we r smarter than that#VoteHimOut
