On May 9, Newark Mayor @rasjbaraka.bsky.social was arrested by federal agents. Across the country, the Trump admin is targeting local officials to bulldoze opposition to their agenda.

Today, over 190 local officials stand in solidarity against this intimidation 👉 six.community/sixaction-letter

A colorful graphic with information on a legislative letter

For decades, New York has made it almost impossible for upstate localities to enact rent control. Costly studies prohibited communities from opting in to this critical program.

Today, local officials are demanding reform. Read our letter 👇

Hey NY Dems - is there nothing else happening that the Democratic Party in New York should care about other than Mike Lawler? What the hell? That is all you seem to care about, and we have much bigger issues than 1 representative. GET IT TOGETHER and show some leadership! @governor.ny.gov

Proud to sign on with my colleagues at @localprogress.bsky.social to ask @governor.ny.gov to increase funding to protect our water. This is a vital natural resource that we must protect!

Tell New York Lawmakers: Protect Our Care! On January 10, 2025, Politico published plans from Congressional Republicans to slash funds for Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, and food benefits in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthy and Trump...

Join me and @citizenactionny.bsky.social to tell lawmakers to protect our care!

Okay, this is my newest very very favorite meme.

I completely understand and I am ashamed that NY failed America today. My apologies. We will work to change that.

I called the Senators too and left messages

We are looking to start this here in the heart of New York. We are looking at a vote of no confidence. Chuck can fuck off.

Fuck off every weak-willed Democrat who totally capitulated today. @schumer.senate.gov and Senator Gillibrand - we will not forget and we will not forgive! 🖕🏻 @aoc.bsky.social please primary Schumer! We need new blood in the Senate and warriors willing to fight for America!

One of these things is not like the others

A cold/calculated effort by the Administration to destroy local/small businesses & force consolidation into larger markets controlled by the American oligarchs under his regime. I feel sorry for the Cortland Standard employees and for our community who will lose our only source of local news.

Goodbye Cortland, and Godspeed - Cortland Standard This is the last edition of the Cortland Standard you will ever read.   The family-owned newspaper will cease publication, a casualty of declining readership and increasing costs. It …

Yet another example in Cortland where the disastrous policies of the current President are hurting our community. After 157 years, Cortland will no longer have a local paper in part because of "an expected 25% tariff on newsprint." #trumpdidthis

We continue to concede ground in the face of an onslaught to our country and our democracy. This is why Democrats continue to lose elections. We are not the opposition party we think we are. For shame @schumer.senate.gov and especially the great disappointment that continues to be Fetterman!

Ready to go live on CNN

@senatorleawebb.bsky.social cities around the world have created public banks to invest in their communities, not big business. It's time for Albany to empower local communities by passing the New York Public Banking Act! Let's keep our public dollars supporting our public institutions.

So very true. We are being dragged backwards and too many people are just fine it.
