DHS has proposed a rule restricting work permits for asylum seekers that would harm the economy, employers, and communities. Over 2.3 million asylum seekers support critical industries. Submit a comment opposing this rule by April 24, 2026: bit.ly/4lPKCVy

David Graeber on social relations in Capitalism.

Today is David Graeber's birthday. He'd have been 65 years old today. His ideas are still here and his message is more important than ever before which must remind us that a better world is possible. #DontLoseHope

Newsmax has absolutely no place on New York City streets. I’m calling on the TLC to suspend their partnership with Curb until Newsmax is no longer being broadcast in 15,000 NYC cabs every single day.

Billionaires aren’t just vulgar — they make plutocracy possible. When someone hits $100 million, give them a beautiful golden certificate that says: capitalism completed. Everything above that should be shared with workers, communities and the public.

This month, the U.S. was the ONLY country to vote AGAINST a UN resolution to protect aid workers in war zones. Shameful. As aid worker deaths rise around the world, I have introduced a bill to protect them & to cut off arms sales to any country who is found to be targeting them.

I will be pushing for a moratorium on the construction of data centers that are powering the unregulated sprint to develop & deploy AI. The moratorium will give democracy a chance to catch up, and ensure that the benefits of technology work for all of us, not just the 1%.

History will judge this government very harshly for its cruel and inhumane treatment of asylum seekers.

Nobody should learn anything from a historic election with the highest voter turnout in 50 years -New York Times

Gavin Newsom just said the quiet part out loud: “All this anti-woke stuff is just anti-Black. Period. Full stop.” And he’s right. “Anti-woke” was never about ideas, it was a marketing campaign to sanitize racism, roll back progress, and make bigotry sound intellectual.

That’s the increase‼️ Not the total‼️

.@NYCMayor + @ebottcher: Your plans to demolish the landmarked Tony Dapolito Recreation Center are completely unacceptable! Use the $100+ million available to repair + reopen the Center, NOT demolish. cc: @gvshp p2a.co/twitterimage?i…

The Faith-Based Affordable Housing Act would, in the purported name of affordable housing, override local law and produce huge divergences from the city's built fabric. Our Exec. Dir. recently debated the merits of the bill with other experts. Learn more: villagepreservation.org/2025/06/06/fai…
