We stand in solidarity with our neighbors and denounce anti-Asian racism and xenophobia that have been extremely prevalent in the last 12+ months. To learn more and to get involved and support visit stopaapihate.org. #StopAAPIHate #StopAsianHate #StopAsianViolence
English
We are saddened by recent incidents of harassment & violence against the AAPI community. The murders of 6 women this week highlights the racism Asian Americans face and the perils sex workers and those perceived to be sex workers face everyday.
English
These attacks remind us that threats of violence against women, bigotry, and hate are often amplified for those with intersectional identities.

I truly believe if we’re seeing more yes votes from Staten Island because they know @MoveForward_SI is watching. Thank you to everyone who took action with us on this bill! #WalkingWhileTrans

[THREAD] Over the summer we asked you to take action and call your legislators in support of the #WalkingWhileTrans Bill. We are thrilled to share that the bill, which was co-sponsored by our own #StatenIsland State Senator @dianesavino, was passed and signed into law yesterday.

We are disappointed that when given an opportunity to stand on the side of a more just and equitable New York, Assembly Members @MikeTannousis and @TeamReillyNY voted against the repeal and for a continuation of discrimination by our law enforcement.
English
We are grateful to Senator @dianesavino, @senatorlanza and Assembly Members @Charlesdfall and @Michael_Cusick for voting in favor of the repeal of this transphobic, racist and sexist law.
English
@dianesavino The law allowed police officers to stop-and-frisk trans women of color for simply walking down the street.
English
@dianesavino The bill repeals a 1976 penal law statute that prohibited loitering for the purpose of prostitution but which ultimately led to decades of law enforcement disproportionately discriminating against and targeting trans people of color.
