Last month we released this statement asking the City, State, and Federal Government to increase their protections for NYers, specifically underserved, Immigrant, Latino, Black, and Asian communities. http://campaign.r20.constantcontact.com/render?m=1109457792744&ca=f01c08ff-bacb-4362-8388-341a494e59c3 … These are some of the demands we asked for:
Shelter in Place: Early in March, I called on @NYCMayor and @NYGovCuomo to take action & close NYC down by imposing a curfew of at least 2 wks. The global experience with The #COVID19 pandemic demonstrated that the only defense we have against this plague is physical separation
Mass Testing For All New Yorkers: called on the City to expand our testing capabilities to ensure every New Yorker, who is showing serious signs of the Novel Coronavirus received a free test.
Access To PPE For First-Responders, Social Workers, Essential Workers, and Senior Care Providers: Called on the City to ensure all essential workers, healthcare providers, and first-responders have access to proper protective gear while working and or commuting.
Increase Cleaning Cycles For All Public and Private Residential Buildings, Trains, Buses, and Streets: we demanded that communities in underserved communities received the same care and attention on local train stations and streets as those in higher-income communities.
Including Undocumented NYers within the Stimulus Package: called to continue to fight to ensure that our immigrant brother & sisters were also included within the stimulus package that helped millions of Americans.
Freezing Commercial and Residential Rent: called on the City to impose a temporary Rent Freeze for all small business owners and residential tenants who are currently impacted by Coronavirus restrictions. There is a growing number of employers furloughing or laying off...
...thousands of workers. If New Yorkers cannot work or earn a livable income, many will find themselves unable to afford New York's rent rates and other fundamental necessities.
...During this time NYers should have multiple alternative modes of transportation available. Additionally, I called on DOT to ensure they create temporary protected bike lanes to ensure all cyclists and delivery workers are kept safe during COVID-19.
Temporary Isolation Sites For NYers With #COVID19: together with 14 other colleagues, sent a letter to the @NYCMayor and @NYGovCuomo asking them to work on a plan to help isolate #COVID19 infected NYers...
...who live in dense & crowded conditions by providing temporary isolation sites to prevent further contagion.
Some of these recommendations have been partially put in place. However, we must continue working together to ensure that all NYers especially the most vulnerable communities receive the help and support they need during these challenging times.
