Today, we confronted Mayor Eric Adams about the crisis at Rikers--21 people have died in NYC jails since he took office. NYers demand action! Reduce the jail population, shut down Rikers & invest in real safety: housing, health care, education, jobs. #CloseRikers #CutShutInvestNY
Our communities are under attack! Governor Kathy Hochul’s proposal to Gut Bail Reform is a blatant attack on Black & Brown NYers. In our rally today, you heard from our members & community groups, who are infuriated by her actions. This proposal will wreck efforts to shut down Rikers!
Thank you to The People’s Church & the #ExcludedNoMore for making today possible.
We helped nearly 20 families & individuals apply for the #ExcludedWorkersFund within 3hrs!
Shoutout to Katal Center for Equity, Health, & Justice for flyering & discussing the #CloseRikers campaign to the East Harlem Community!
This is what hope looks like. This is what solidarity looks like. This is what courage looks like.
This group just arrived in St.Pul, after a prayerful 256-mile march from the Line 3 pipeline route.
They’re here at the Capitol to defend treaties. And they’re staying. #stopline3
The #LessIsMoreNY Bill has passed by both the NYS Assembly & Senate. It’s now up to Kathy Hochul to #SignTheBill .
@NYSenBenjamin please help us get the rest of the way there! NYS has the opportunity to pass life changing legislation. Let’s get it done! nextcity.org/daily/entry/ne…
Soooooo Kathy Hochul, when can Katal Center for Equity, Health, & Justice members land a meeting with you to speak about the #LessIsMoreNY bill which is currently just waiting to be signed by our next #NYGovernor ?
It passed the NY State & Assembly 🙂. Let us know!

THE NYPD NEWS & MTA MUST STOP CRIMINALIZING POVERTY!
The MTA received $4B in Fed Aid with the possibility of receiving another $10B+ in Fed Aid & Millions in State & City funding. Congestion Pricing is also expected to hand the MTA an additional $15B. #FreeFares #BoycottTheMTA
Our member Avion is quoted in the article saying, “This changes everything... We need due process. We need that safety net of due process. This bill is going to help people.”
