Twitter, I need your help.

Today, NYC launched its historic taxi medallion debt relief program—could erase $100M+ of debt.

BUT the City has set 9/30 as the app deadline for drivers w/ loans from Marblegate—largest lender.

That’s in just 11 days.

Can you RT to spread the word?

[Charlotte Persephone @CPHotmess]

Hey folks! Are you upset about the recent attacks on trans folk and want to do something to help?

I’ve got good news! There’s something relatively easy you can do that would help a lot right now, and it doesn’t require you to put your phone down!

[Fight for the Future @fightfortheftr]

This may be the first example of Meta’s anti-human rights approach to abortion patients’ communication post-Roe: it turned over the Facebook messages of a 17 year old girl so that she might now be punished for exercising her human right to bodily autonomy

[(ARCHIVED) Adrienne Adams @NYCSpeakerAdams]

The DOE continues to avoid transparency and accountability for its removal of funds from school budgets that do not reflect the city budget. @NYCMayor and @DOEChancellor need to stop this charade that harms our students and restore the funds they have taken away from schools.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

We are so close and making progress! Keep up the pressure everyone!

[Rep. Joanna McClinton @RepMcClinton]

Here we go again!!! As @PAHouseDems fight to ensure you have a VOICE in Harrisburg & protect women's lives + their reproductive rights, the majority party is once again SILENCING US!!! And when they silence us, they’re silencing you & MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ACROSS PENNSYLVANIA!!!

[Working Families Party 🐺 @WorkingFamilies]

No one is free until all of us are free.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The issue w/ “elect 2 Dems for Roe” is it’s not clear that’s the #. We need to count votes.

Filibuster needs 51, but it’s not just Manchin & Sinema holding out.

💥What to do? CALL YOUR DEM SENATOR + ask them to CLEARLY support an abolished or talking filibuster.

Here’s how ⬇️

[Eliza Orlins @elizaorlins]

NYPD HAS $11.2 BILLION.

AND THEY ARE LITERALLY DEFUNDING THE PARKS DEPARTMENT.

[Eliza Orlins @elizaorlins]

OH THE IRONY.

While giving NYPD $11.2 BILLION and cutting hundreds of millions from education, this is what @NYCMayor says:

“We did not cut the budget for public schools,” said Adams. “We reallocated the money…”

[UFT @UFT]

With billions of dollars in funding available for city schools, why is the mayor threatening to cut funding from school budgets? The math doesn't add up. Visit https://t.co/dPGYY5ZqjF to see how much the city wants to cut from your school.

[NYC Arts in Education Roundtable @nycaier]

Transforming our city’s schools starts with the arts. This means funding an equitable foundation for arts in ALL schools by committing to $100 per student in arts ed funding.
