Labor and tenant unions can not only win climate objectives as well as economic ones but also build their bases through them.

Chicago's @ctulocal1.bsky.social and Southside Together show us how, as recounted in this piece by @cplusc.bsky.social's @ruthygourevitch.bsky.social and @batul.bsky.social.

As candidate for NYS governor, @delgadoforny.bsky.social has aligned with the Left on 2 crucial points:

✅ Tax the rich
✅ Defend immigrants

Now, to persuade the organized Left to back his run, he must show—as @cynthianixon.bsky.social did—how doing so will generate worthwhile wins even if he loses.

What if Du Bois’s “psychological wage” refers not to a psychological/immaterial bribe, but to a rogue currency in its own right? Can this help us reconsider American political economy from then to now?

#TaxTheRich #NY4All

STATE LAWMAKERS MUST PROTECT OUR COMMUNITIES New York is under attack from a Trump administration hellbent on making us sicker, hungrier, and less safe, all while making millionaires and billionaires even richer with unfair tax breaks. The Federal Budget Scam will make life harder: hospitals will close, health insurance premiums and utility bills will skyrocket, and public benefits - which we all contribute to - will be inaccessible to those who need them. State lawmakers must protect our communities by convening a special session to: • Fund our healthcare system and ensure New York is affordable for everyone by making the super-wealthy pay their fair share of taxes; and • Keep New Yorkers safe by passing the New York for All and Dignity Not Detention Acts. New Yorkers can't wait any longer for lawmakers to fight back.

We’ve joined @investinourny.bsky.social and nearly 50 organizations, representing thousands of New Yorkers, to urge State Leaders to call a special session and protect us from the Federal Budget Scam. We need to #TaxTheRich and pass the New York for All and Dignity Not Detention acts now!

@sengianaris.bsky.social, the NYS Senate's Deputy Majority Leader, is the state's most powerful legislator with consistently progressive politics.

In order to deliver fast & free buses and universal childcare, Zohran will need the state to #TaxTheRich; in this fight, Mike will be an essential ally.

The division-of-labor and Black-voter-deficit topics of are great interest to me as well. Though I already have a personal opinion on each topic, I'm cautiously optimistic that a coalition-wide debrief will be convened soon after the general to produce a collective answer (at least to the former).

"Mamdani's allies plan to make a strong push next year for Albany to tax the rich." Yes and we're starting tonight.
