    My statement on the Assembly’s decision not to impeach Governor Andrew Cuomo. By letting Governor Cuomo avoid accountability for his misconduct, the Assembly failed its moral and constitutional duty to New Yorkers.

    ‘Attention-seeking’ is such a specific and sexist slur. It’s almost always used attack women and queer people. It relies on the cultural assumption that women, girls and LGBT people should stay small and silent and compliant and never draw attention to themselves.

    We must prevent the homelessness that will result from evictions. The moratorium and rent relief are needed TOGETHER.

    All of this👇

    I urge all those who have donated to former Governor Cuomo's 2022 campaign to request the return of their contributions. Satisfying the former Governor’s desire for revenge is not a permitted campaign expenditure.

    Extension of Moratorium is going to slow down the ERAP distribution, please don’t play any more politics. Let’s respect Supreme Court decision!

    How is this false? First thing about my bill is to make sure there was less means testing to get the money out faster. Landlords kept saying they wanted means testing because some people can pay. We didn’t want anything to hold up the money because we saw folks struggling.

    Replying to @yuhline
    This is false. No one talked about getting the money out till end of May 2021, even billions sitting since dec 2020. Bc you and your colleague wanted to cancel rent and have forever moratoriums but since SCOTUS ruled CEEFA out, now ERAP takes the center stage

    Did you know being evicted makes you more likely to end up in the criminal system? We need a right to counsel in housing court. Let public defenders fight eviction & lower the number of people in the criminal legal system to begin with. .

    If we just cancelled rent last year, we wouldn't be in this situation.

    Beyond upsetting. So many of us who worked at ABC during this era sometimes joke we have PTSD. I'm losing track of the number of sexual assaults, and these are just the ones that have been reported...and doesn't include other abuses we endured.

    Uh. We are. ERAP has 2.6 billion dollars in it for landlords. And we wanted to pay everyone’s rent but folks didn’t want us to remember? We said the less cumbersome the application the faster money would go out. We said we should have less means testing. But nope.

    If they extend it the State should pay the rent!

    New Yorkers can complete applications for rental assistance here: Funding is available and we want to make sure everyone who needs rent relief can get it.

    The Supreme Court's appalling and insensitive ruling eliminates a key line of defense for tenants, and we are exploring all options to protect New Yorkers from eviction. New Yorkers should complete & submit their applications for eviction protection immediately. This is urgent.

    …says the guy that has tattoos…😑 I love tattoos…but not for nothing my dad is a chemist and he broke down some of the heavy metals in them for me when I was thinking of one as a kid. And well there are actual poisons in most inks?

    Rob Fox, a City of San Diego firefighter posted a video on Instagram yesterday upset about a vaccine mandate for all city workers. He said it’s his god given right as set forth in the constitution to be free from having “poisons injected into my body.”

    Interesting. And….why would we want to limit our agenda?

    . are expected to hold conference Monday to discuss how to proceed on renewing eviction moratorium, which expires Tuesday. Source says can call lawmakers back for a special session at the end of next week and limit the agenda to the moratorium.
