Watters: funnel week in #IOWA legislature and that means if #WorkWithoutWorry (HSB696) doesn’t pass House and Senate, it is dead. Email reps and senators and tell them to let people with disabilities in Iowa advance their career, save for retirement, and get married. #LetUsWork
Virtual Public Hearing on Reinstatement of Fired Unvaccinated NYC Workers 11-19, 10am
On Wednesday, November 19 at 10am there will be a virtual meeting to determine if a rule change will be approved allowing for the reinstatement of “dismissed” unvaccinated NYC workers. City Hall has told multiple reporters (including GOTHAMIST) if an unvaccinated worker is reinstated through this process they will not have to sign a waiver of their legal rights to get their jobs back. This is a very promising development, but we are watching everything very closely.
The meeting will be held on MICROSOFT TEAMS. There will not be an in-person meeting so no one should physically go to City Hall, and there will be no rally or public action as all fired-worker leadership will be remotely logged into this meeting. We strongly recommend everyone potentially impacted logs into this meeting to watch what happens for themselves. We will have summary and analysis of what transpires later in the week.

🚨 Famine is here in #Gaza. And spreading.
Only weeks left before it engulfs Deir al Balah & Khan Younis. Mothers skip meals. Children waste away. Families on the edge.
Preventable then. Still stoppable now—if the world acts.
#GazaFamine #ActForHumanity #LetUsWork

🚨 #GazaFamine is confirmed, but it may not stop there. Not from drought. Not from scarcity. From deliberate denial of aid.
👉In few weeks, famine conditions could expand to Deir al Balah & Khan Younis.
The world must act now #LetUsWork #ActForHumanity

Open Letter to NYC Mayor Eric Adams: Rehire NYC Workers Fired During COVID
Jamel Holley, Tramell Thompson and Sophy Medina call on Mayor Adams to reinstate and compensate fired unvaccinated NYC workers
Dear @NYCMayor Eric Adams,
We firmly believe, with resolute certainty, that now is an opportune moment for you, as Mayor of the greatest city in the world, to address a critical challenge at this pivotal juncture for New York City.
We respectfully urge you to direct the city’s legal team to settle or withdraw, where appropriate, all legal actions opposing NYC educators, firefighters, police officers, sanitation workers, and medical professionals who lost their jobs for declining to get the COVID vaccine when it was mandated.
The absence of these dedicated professionals has noticeably impacted public safety, education, and healthcare, creating challenges for the community as a whole. However, this situation also presents an opportunity for leadership to heal, rebuild, and address inconsistencies that undermine fairness.
For example, one of us, Tramell Thompson, currently vice president of TWU Local 100 and a train conductor during the pandemic, has highlighted that MTA workers in NYC faced no vaccine mandate, while police officers working alongside them in the subway system were subject to one. Similarly, one of us, Sophy Medina, a retired FDNY firefighter, had her religious exemption request denied by the Fire Department. Only after a protracted battle, with significant intervention from City Council Minority Leader Joann Ariola’s office, was she granted a medical exemption.
How do these disparities reflect equal justice under the law for NYC workers?
We encourage you to develop a thoughtful plan to provide fair compensation for lost wages through a structured agreement, ideally in time for the upcoming school year, particularly for educators to help fill significant gaps in critical services. Recent reports indicate that NYC is hiring up to 9,000 new teachers for the upcoming school year, underscoring the urgent need for trained professionals.
Additionally, we humbly request that the Trump Administration consider acting as a supportive partner, where legally appropriate, to facilitate the reinstatement of these invaluable workers.
These dedicated public servants deserve prompt and fair treatment. We also sincerely encourage the United Federation of Teachers (UFT), Uniformed Firefighters Association (UFA), Uniformed Fire Officers Association (UFOA), Police Benevolent Association (PBA), Teamsters Local 831, and medical professional unions to stand firmly in support of displaced workers who deserve to return to their roles.
New York City stands at a defining moment, with a unique opportunity to build on your strengths as Mayor. We respectfully urge you to embrace this moment, lead with empathy, restore fairness, and guide the city toward meaningful solutions.
Finally, we call on all involved to act swiftly and collaboratively to pursue outcomes that serve the best interests of all New Yorkers.
Sincerely,
Jamel Holley, @jamelholley, NJ Assemblyman Emeritus, Former Mayor Borough of Roselle
Tramell Thompson, NYC Transit & Labor Leader, Founder of Progressive Action @progressiveact
Sophy Medina, Retired NYC Firefighter, Cofounder of Bravest for Choice @bravest4choice
(On behalf of thousands of fired and displaced workers who deserve the right to make a living in the greatest city in the world)

Here is a good summary why fired unvaccinated workers in NYC will never support Eric Adams without #ReinstateAndCompensate
#LetUsWork!

Please share this with anyone who keeps suggesting Mayor Adams is the better choice. He betrayed us. Papa said don’t be stupid. When a man shows you who he is, believe him!
We ain’t falling for the PSYOP some of you are pulling on NY. Because you ain’t changing our minds!
By the views of humanity, please help us.
#Rohingya refugees in Cox’s Bazar need access to work, education, and movement to survive with dignity.
We don’t ask for luxury—just a chance to live.
