BREAKING: 1,500 Jews, Palestinians, rabbis, imams, pastors, parents, and elected officials for a ceasefire are risking arrest at the Manhattan Bridge. We represent the majority of people in the US. 66% of Americans and 80% of Democrats want the bombing of Gaza to stop.

HAPPENING NOW: Thousands are shutting down the Manhattan Bridge on the busiest travel day of the year, refusing to leave until Biden calls for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. We will make business as usual impossible until the US stops funding and fueling a genocide.

The DC 37 contract is out for voting and there's still a lot of confusion and frustration in the rank and file. We've been working to compile information from the union, our locals, and news sources to understand what's in this contract and where the process falls short.

Fill out this quick survey and tell the AFL-CIO that we want cops OUT!

People in AFSCME and other affiliated unions can fill out this AFL-CIO member issue survey and tell them, among other things, to prioritize dropping police unions from the federation. Also #MedicareForAll now. act.aflcio.org/forms/2022-un…

Do people realize Robb Elementary doubled its spend on school security since 2017? They had a fence. They had surveillance. They had officers on duty. They had shooter drill trainings. ALL OF IT FAILED. The problem is easy access to guns. It's always been guns. ADDRESS THE GUNS

We need to #PassNYHealth for all the folks like Ellen, who have better things to do when living the last days of their lives than argue with health insurance companies and worry about medical debt. On what would have been her 71th birthday, let's get #NYHAforEllen.

My friend Ellen fought till she died of brain cancer to #PassNYHealth so all New Yorkers, including the most vulnerable, receive high-quality single payer universal health care. NYHA will end insurance profiteering and put the $$$ into actual health care. #NYHAforEllen

Ellen was my friend. She advocated to #PassNYHealth until the very end. On her birthday today, I urge my colleagues to pass #NYHAforEllen this year, so insurance corporations can never steal precious time from New Yorkers and their families, especially when time is running out

Last year, I was interviewed for a Washington Post podcast and they edited out every instance I said “occupation,” “colonialism” and “apartheid.” Journalism apparently 🙃

Corporate Democrats no doubt killed the bill & lots of people will end up bankrupt & will die prematurely & unnecessarily as a result. #CalCare

Instagram has blocked Muna el-Kurd from live streaming the ethnic cleansing of Sheikh Jarrah to her 1.6 million followers. She was attempting to show the occupation forces building up to expel al-Salhiya family from their home.
