    Rensselaer County Exec Steve McLaughlin's pattern of harassment and abuse must end.

    INBOX: Alfonso, Capital District chapter board member, has released a response to what she says is Steve McLaughlin’s "online harassment targeting journalists and members of the public." (Awaiting the County Exec's response.)

    The most severe problem of this crisis is that Rikers exists at all. The damage caused by Rikers to the people incarcerated there, to their families, and to their communities is immeasurable. As said, the Act is must be signed by now

    In my tour of Rikers yesterday, I witnessed the raw inhumanity of our injustice system. We need to transform that system into one of care and rehabilitation — and that begins with decarceration of those locked up because of cash bail or technical parole violations.

    A group of New York elected officials inspected Rikers. They saw detainees who were forced to sleep 3-to-a-cell on the floor, who missed meals, who were without access to lifesaving medication or medical care, and more. This is a humanitarian crisis, and we must act.

    Spent six or seven hours at the jails on Rikers Island today. What we are witnessing on Rikers Island is a public health emergency and a humanitarian crisis that is costing people their lives. It cannot be redeemed. Fully closing Rikers cannot come soon enough.

    “People have been stuck inside for days, for weeks, for months without a court hearing, without being able to get transported to court, without medical care." - Unacceptable. We need to decarcerate now.

    The Party won control of the New York Senate for Democrats, and that could well save our control of the House of Representatives. I'm proud to be a dues paying member. Join us!

    It's almost like poverty is a policy choice.

    Incomes rose and poverty fell thanks in large part to stimulus payments Congress approved last year.

    We launched our campaign to bring decency, care, & inclusion to Rensco. With our current County Exec’s suspension from Twitter for abusive language, we are more certain than ever that a leadership change is needed. Twitter took action. Now it’s up to us to take action this Nov

    Back after my 1st suspension from the censoring fascists at . Apparently they monitor liberal loser journalists like . If you criticize that babbling idiot you get suspended. Oops. I guess I did it again. Here was my tweet. I’ve said way worse about Cuomo

    We need to provide pathways to citizenship for residents with Temporary Protected Status (TPS) — as well as Dreamers, farm workers, and essential workers — through the reconciliation process.  The U.S. is their only refuge, and now their home.

    Photo of a statement from Rep. AOC, with black text on a white background that reads: STATEMENT: REP. AOC ON PROVIDING PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP FOR TPS HOLDERS THROUGH RECONCILIATION. Full statement follows.

    The conditions at Rikers Island have reached emergency levels. We join our partners and elected allies in calling for an outside investigation and a dramatic reduction in the number of people being held in city jails.

    Don't tell us we can't afford to invest in our communities when we spend $700,000,000,000 on defense spending yearly.
