so remarkably tired that I am sneaking out of the birthday party an hour and a half in (and I spent 45 minutes of that time in hiding having dinner)

Just watched the Harry Styles performance from the BRITS (idk someone correct me if that’s not the right stylizing of that) and WE ARE SO BACK. Wow I love pop music. A little dance number? The music feels so euphoric?

Can’t wait to read this! Happy birthday Bright!

✅ Oppose #TaxTheRich
✅ Roll back climate law
✅ Let local govs collude with ICE

This is Governor Hochul—and thus the state of NYS politics—when she faces no primary challenge from the Left and when a majority of Assembly Dems are neoliberals.

Friends, we *must* win our Assembly primaries this year.

Yesterday, we joined more than a thousand New Yorkers from across the state to take over Albany and tell @governor.ny.gov it's time to #TaxTheRich

endorsement season is hard yall!

shout out to our members and staff. from Brooklyn to Western New York, we are proud to endorse another batch of state candidates who are running to build a more just & equitable state.

I didn’t do any work to pull off today’s rally. It’s the first time in years that this is true when it comes to a TTR action in Albany. The folks who did the work should feel immensely proud.

It’s nice to step back from an organizing project I love and to see others stepping up & into it.

there’s something really gratifying of doing many many years of work on an issue to create fertile ground for candidates to run on it and win; for the organizing to scale up; and for a new generation of organizers to be stepping into political leadership.

it’s 7am and the person next door to me in this hotel is watching game of thrones so loudly and honestly I kind of want to go ask them what’s wrong with them

We are ready to take over Albany tomorrow! Get ready to see a lot of Jews wearing these t-shirts 🥰

“This is more dangerous than last snowstorm, harder to move in,” he tells me in Spanish.

Governor Hochul is using a state program called ReCharge NY to help pay the cost of power for 7 data center companies.

@reinventalbany.bsky.social and @publicpowerny.bsky.social are fighting this and the orgs to follow on this mater.

Excellent investigation here by @nycfootprint.bsky.social.

It’s 3am and I experiencing the euphoric glow of secondhand smoke.

New Yorkers are right to be angry at the prospect of austerity and cuts, OR higher property taxes on working class families.

But, let's make sure our anger is pointed in the right direction: Toward the governor, who refuses to tax the wealthiest among us.
