“This budget is not good, and it is not just. Almost two-thirds of our workforce lives near poverty, and this agreement will not fundamentally change that — even though the Mayor found plenty of money to give generous raises to other workers.” #JustPay thecity.nyc/2023/6/29/2377…

Progressive faith leaders came in and requested a meeting to push Mayor Eric Adams on the budget, to restore some cuts. He’s not meeting, so they’re singing and holding a press conference.

The evidence is clear: rolling back #RaisetheAgeNY will not make us safer. We need to invest in a public-health response to gun violence, not return to failed, racially biased policies of the past. @CarlHeastie @AndreaSCousins @GovKathyHochul

For too long, we have taken a downstream approach to children’s welfare, setting up too many kids — particularly in Black and Brown communities — for a lifetime of challenges. Under Jess Dannhauser’ leadership, @ACSNYC will take an upstream approach for young New Yorkers at risk.

This is going to be a powerful experience! The original played a huge role in my sense of ministry. I did a book report on God in the Ghetto at Bishop College. Jennifer Jones-Austin has blessed us with this timely work
