Rent is way too high in Cambridge, but some candidates want to go back to banning apartment buildings in certain neighborhoodsβ€”let’s keep moving forward and put hundreds more dollars a month in the pockets of every renter!

This study shows why Cambridge’s new multifamily zoning is so important for decreasing housing costs!

Recently a local paper published a piece on a City Council candidate that reads more like a campaign press release than reporting, without clearly labeling it as such.

A news piece on the candidate would at least mention he's a board member of a group that sued the city to rip out bike lanes.

In addition to being at the forefront of the urbanist/YIMBY movement, Burhan is one of the kindest, most thoughtful officials I have ever met. Please donate to his campaign if you can: secure.actblue.com/donate/commi...

I donated and I hope you will too!

Burhan has been at the forefront of Cambridge's recent progress on housing, e.g expanding the Affordable Housing Overlay and ending exclusionary zoning city-wide. He needs our support to continue this work in the next council term!

Great to see @ryanenos.bsky.social and many other colleagues speaking up and people cheering on a icy grey rainy day.

I’ve got my strategy for the next 2 years.

We can’t stop the admin and we’re certainly not able to undo their harm.

But we can be roadblocks. From filibustering to suing to protesting at every over reach.

We need to SLOW THEM DOWN.

We need to make it through so we can rebuild after.

Meet the mild-mannered engineer who’s pushing Cambridge to finally tackle its housing crisis - The Boston Globe Burhan Azeem, a 28-year-old Cambridge city councilor, has helped lead some of the broadest housing reforms that Cambridge, or anywhere else in Massachusetts, has seen in years.

β€œPeople support me because I write policies that have a real chance to make a difference in the housing crisis. If I wasn’t doing that, I wouldn’t be doing my job.”

SAVE Act: House Passes GOP Voting Bill That Could Disenfranchise Millions Read more here.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a major voter suppression measure that, if it became law, could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters and badly undermine U.S. democracy. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

"Where law ends, tyranny begins."

The president can't just demand $9 billion from Harvard because he feels like it.

If we let power go unchecked, it won’t stop asking. It’ll keep taking. Again and again.

This should be a wake up call for all the β€œtake Trump seriously but not literally” people.

He literally wants tariffs even if they cause economic harm.

He literally supports Putin over Ukraine.

He literally wants to ethnically cleanse Gaza.

And he literally wants to run for a 3rd term.

Harvard is facing an existential crisis. The Trump administration is blackmailing them and need a community that's willing to stand with them and that's willing to fight.

This is a battle for the soul of Harvard.

Sign and show up this Saturday noon at Cambridge Common

Urgent: The Harvard board flew to Cambridge weekend presumably to decide if they’ll capitulate to Trump. Working on a full-throated response.

Anyone willing to help connect with / organize Harvard faculty, students or others interested in an impromptu demonstration this Saturday?
