Why did @GovKathyHochul veto bill S.7001/A.7616? Why don’t nonprofits deserve to be paid in a timely manner? Why should nonprofits have to face additional financial burdens due to late state payments? Disappointing @NonprofitNY @NYCouncilNPs

.@NYCMayor + @nyclandmarks: I urge you to landmark the endangered historic Most Holy Redeemer Church in the East Village. It’s been a critical part of NYC history for over a century and a half, and we can’t lose it. cc: @GVSHP p2a.co/twitterimage?i…

11.8 MILLION people lost Medicare coverage today. Thanks, Republicans, for destroying America.

I just wrote a @theactionnet letter: Demand the Immediate Release of Palestinian Student Activist Mahmoud Khalil from DHS detention. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/demand…

Hey @Uber why don’t you offer an option to cancel a ride that will take you 120 blocks out of the way?

I just signed a @theactionnet petition: Not Another Bomb: Sign-On Letter. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/not-…

NEW: Trump just announced a new “no taxes on Social Security” policy. It’s actually a $1.6 trillion cut to Social Security and Medicare in disguise. The plan would cut Social Security benefits by 25% for the poorest seniors, and give the wealthiest retirees a 46% tax cut.

Why is #airtravel such a nightmare? My @JetBlue flight yesterday was 6 hours late arriving—the 6th flight I took in 6 weeks, a cumulative total of more than 9 hrs of delays—and yet they say no compensation is warranted. I feel so #abused by the #airlineindustry & @JetBlue

Libraries and cultural institutions support families across the boroughs, host visitors from around the world, and generate billions of dollars in economic activity. Together we achieved a budget that invests in these vital services and organizations across the city.

Cultural organizations like @queensbotanicl Garden & @FlushingTwnHall provide access to diverse arts and culture that enrich Flushing and beyond, which is why the @NYCCouncil is fighting to restore a $53M cut to cultural funding in the FY25 budget.

“We are going to be very clear. We need $53 million in restoration...We need the mayor to restore these funds now.” -@CMCarlinaRivera on the council’s call for @NYCMayor to restore $53 million in budget cuts for arts and culture.

You know why tourists wanna spend $$ and visit New York City?

@CMCarlinaRivera Coco Killingsworth said that record high temperatures this summer weren’t bothering her, @ericadamsfornyc’s budget cuts to arts and culture were. “I’m hot from needing to prove our worth over and over again.”

People visit NYC from all over the world to enjoy our cultural programming and institutions. Our arts organizations and schools deserve the resources they need to serve visitors and residents. @NYCCouncil is fighting for $53 million in restored funding and no less! #Culture4All
