NYC Climate Package

Supporting NYC bills helping 🌎, transit and reducing air pollution! SCORECARD:

[NYC Climate Package @ClimatePackage]

UPDATE: Some new, massive @NYCCouncil support for some spectacular, green bills! 🌎 Let’s get the ones shown in GREEN voted on and enacted! https://t.co/CcSUrDYY2S

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Amazon is worth $2 trillion. But it didn't deign to pay the millions of dollars it racked up in unpaid fines as its’ trucks illegally polluted our air and forced New Yorkers to breathe in their exhaust. 

We collected every dollar they owe the people of this city — and will continue to hold them accountable. In New York, corporations are held to the same standard as everyone else. 

No company — no matter how large or powerful — is above the law.

@NYCMayor Lord’s work. Now fund the DEP to properly handle all the new idling complaints!

[amNewYork™ @amNewYork]

Mamdani administration says it recovered more than $9M in Amazon idling fines https://t.co/YmMJFPHQif

And with hot weather, we have multiple air quality alerts. We need Intros 11 and 48, to reduce commercial idling, and NOT Intro 561, which would vastly increase it.

[Speaker Julie Menin @SpeakerMenin]

The sun is out and New York City is alive! ☀️

What a great weekend across the city — from speaking at the @UFT Spring Conference about investing in our teachers, to joining @GMHC this morning for the annual AIDS Walk in Central Park, to spending time in Southern Brooklyn with @CMSusanZhuang at a roundtable with Chinese community leaders and the Shalom Dragon festival.

Hope you had a beautiful weekend, NYC!

@JulieMenin Carl has done amazing work to fight unnecessary idling in New York City! We are very excited by his addition to the council!

Jeff Bezos reportedly spent over $10 million to host the Met gala. That's about what Amazon has spent on New York City idling tickets, with another $8.4M due. @NYCComptroller

@nyctaxinews Idling is really bad for New Yorkers’ health, though, the air pollution causes all kinds of premature deaths. More enforcement is definitely better. Really bad take in this OpEd, seems like he is paid by the bus industry.

I have reported cars on the sidewalk at this location over 100 times. I have receipts.

@LindseyBoylan @LeslieForNYC @CarlMichaelW as I consider what order to rank each of you, I would love to know how you would approach this longstanding issue - both legislatively and directly.

[NYC Climate Package @ClimatePackage]

@_elkue Stupid lawsuit. Would be much easier for this polluting company to stop their unnecessary pollution in New York City.

Tourist helicopter trips are putting New York City at risk day in and day out. @StoptheChopNYNJ

@stop_idling_nyc @SpeakerMenin @NYCWater This is what a corporation taking responsibility for clean air in New York City looks like. 👏 👏

[Stop NYC Idling @stop_idling_nyc]

This is the future we want. (Now do this 1000 more times.) Another example of how anti-idling laws work. @SpeakerMenin @NYCWater

[Lincoln Restler @LincolnRestler]

If it is official NYPD policy to not enforce the law - then New Yorkers should take matters into our own hands.

Pass my legislation to empower civilian enforcement of illegal parking and abolish parking placards.

[Streetsblog New York City @StreetsblogNYC]

Amazon has paid just $5,400 of the more than $9.8 million in fines and penalties related to illegal idling that it owes the city. https://t.co/8472FpgRuA

Hi @ShaunAbreu are you ready for DOT to issue fines directly when handling reports of blocked fire hydrants? (Intro 654)

“As they fought the blaze, firefighters found two cars illegally parked in front of fire hydrants”

It’s been a big week for @ChrisMarteNYC, who now has a perfect 🌎-bill sponsorship record on our Climate Scorecard!

Lots of ❤️ too for @alexaforcouncil’s beyond necessary Intro 48, providing environmental justice to our immigrant communities!

[NYC Climate Package @ClimatePackage]

Some great Climate Scorecard bills are picking up significant early support from 🌎-focused Councilmembers! Thanks Farah Louis, @LincolnRestler, @alexaforcouncil, Chris Marte, @galeabrewer, @Lynn4NYC and @voteshekar for leading the way forward!

@NYCWater 你们拒绝让讲中文的人报告空气污染问题？

Excited to launch our 2026-2029 Session City Council Climate Scorecard based on Council members’ support for the best (and the worst) environmental legislation! Let us know if we left bills out!

And how’s your CM doing?
