"There is no choice really...you have to feel like a beggar and beggars can’t be choosers" CityFHEPS vouchers are a lifeline, but hard to use. Families are only able to use them in a few neighborhoods - and few wealthy ones. @citylimitsnews.bsky.social got the data: citylimits.org/2025/02/05/n...

I would like to go back to focusing on the activism I find meaningful and fulfilling to be a part of. #AffordableHousing and #MentalHealth are very important to me. I absolutely can not do this until the US Government #coup is addressed.

I honestly feel like I am losing my mind because the scale of what is happening just does not seem to be registering for most people and is not being reflected on the pages (or webpages) of our national newspapers.

Please detail what those "things" are and the specific dates on which you are going to do those "things". This is a literal emergency. You can't afford an "our hands are tied" approach this time. Do something.

The freeze jeopardizes about $3 trillion in federal grants to states. This mere funding risk for roads, transportation, public #housing anti-gun violence initiatives, disaster relief, #RentalAssistance, childcare, and food will be an ENSURED REALITY under Elon's #coup tinyurl.com/2myf4rak

We're out ALL OVER today talking to rent stabilized voters and reminding them that the Mayor controls the rents! We need ALL MAYORAL CANDIDATES to commit to a rent freeze! There are 2.4 million rent stabilized tenants -- we make New York New York, and we deserve to stay.

Seattle folk, can do something RIGHT NOW to channel your rage and fear and despair. Ballots were sent in the mail today for Prop 1A: A 5% tax on the compensation of millionaires, paid by their employer, to go straight to our Social Housing Developer. Vote. Tell your friends to Vote. Volunteer.

THERE WAS A 53% INCREASE IN HOMELESSNESS ACROSS NEW YORK STATE IN 2024 Housing instability has a direct impact on safety and #MentalHealth. New Yorkers are suffering. If we support #SocialHousing initiatives, we can bring permanently affordable and predictably stable #housing to New York City.
