West Side Community Organization

@NYCSpeakerAdams @CMShaunAbreu Our community was forced to lock @AMNH because of more riots trying to break in yesterday. Thank you for your continued silence and complacency. Clearly this is the pressing issue of the moment. @savetheuws @JCAndersonNYC @SethBarronNYC

With Local Law 61 of 2023, NYC is leading the nation with this groundbreaking anti-discrimination law to ensure that all New Yorkers, regardless of their body shape or size, are protected from discrimination under the law. My statement with @CMShaunAbreu: council.nyc.gov/press/2023/11/…

Congratulations to @LindaBRosenthal and @bradhoylman for their bail reform that has so thoroughly wrecked our state, an adult who organized a riot in a high school against a teacher, forcing her to hide for hours and threatening her, has been released. @savetheuws @JCAndersonNYC

@JulieMenin @NYCSchools They released her name and address apparently. What will @NYCCouncil @GovKathyHochul do if this teacher is subsequently harmed?

No one should ever feel unsafe at a school. We need ⁦@NYCSchools⁩ to ensure that both teachers and students are safe and respected. Learning to respect a view that is different from your own is what should be taught at school not used to intimidate. thedailybeast.com/hillcrest-high…

@SusanBEdelman These kids know there are zero consequences. Full stop. What an absolute disgrace @DOEChancellor is to not condemn them and get this under control. These schools are not safe for teachers, faculty, or students. @MBPMarkLevine

NEW: A Jewish teacher at Hillcrest HS in Queens was forced to hide in a locked office while hundreds of students rampaged through the halls calling for her ouster. "I was shaken to my core by the calls to violence against me," she said. nypost.com/2023/11/25/met…

These are the answers from @nyc311. A woefully inadequate and wasteful government program that has no impact on quality of life of NYC residents. When someone is clearly exhibiting signs of mental illness/ possible drug addiction- there is absolutely no one to tell. @savetheuws

Hi @nyc311 @GoddardRiv - man with no shoes pacing on Amsterdam Avenue on corner of 74th street outside pro- image photo. Needs attention. @galeabrewer @savetheuws @JCAndersonNYC

Standing with almost 300,000 others to demand the release of hostages and denounce antisemitism. The United States stands with our friend and ally. 🇺🇸🤝🇮🇱

🧵Some thoughts after attending today's 47-minute screening of Hamas's atrocities on Oct 7 at the @UN, following a searing speech from @MosabHasanYOSEF - son of one of the co-founders of Hamas.

This is not assault. It's attempted murder. Pushing someone onto ⁦@MTA⁩ ⁦@NYCTSubway⁩ tracks is fortunate to BE ALIVE! ⁦⁦@ManhattanDA⁩ does not care about the safety of nyc residents. Remember this. ⁦@savetheuws⁩ nypost.com/2023/11/16/met…

Wake up. Decriminalizing fentanyl kills people. It feeds the addiction complex. Profits the so called "non-profit " groups. But doesn't cure addiction. ⁦@savetheuws⁩ ⁦@JCAndersonNYC⁩ ⁦@Twolfrecovery⁩ ⁦@KevinSabet⁩ wsj.com/us-news/oregon…

Clear that people interviewed in this article have not been reading them news. Theft in nyc drug stores has been rampant for years causing our stores to close thanks to ⁦@nydems⁩ bail reform. DC just caught up. ⁦@savetheuws⁩ ⁦@RezaC1⁩ nypost.com/2023/11/12/new…

Neighbors- if you know them, identify. This is a hate crime. ⁦@savetheuws⁩⁦@galeabrewer⁩⁦@MarkLevineNYC⁩⁦@iLoveTheUWS⁩ UWS attack investigated as antisemitic hate crime audacy.com/1010wins/news/…

Why local elections matter. Our ⁦@nydems⁩ have turned their backs on us while violent criminals are walking the streets. In the wake of unprecedented antisemitism, we have no recourse & are left vulnerable. @savetheuws⁩ ⁦@DonutShorts⁩ nypost.com/2023/11/09/met…

Tonight, I won my last election to the New York City Council. As I look ahead to the next two years, they will be my final term serving you. Serving in this role has been the honor of a lifetime. Heartfelt thanks to all for your continued support!

NEW -- ALUMNI of @GWtweets in Congress have penned a letter to @PresidentofGW "in disgust" at images projected on Gelman Library. They say "GW must condemn these actions in the strongest possible terms and take immediate steps to protect its Jewish students." "Nearly a quarter of undergraduate students at GW are Jewish. These students fear for their lives and do not feel safe. GW must make clear to its student body that this despicable behavior won’t be tolerated, and an investigation must be launched without delay."

Ohad Munder Zichri is a bright kid who loves soccer, tennis, and solving the Rubik’s cube. On October 7th, Ohad was kidnapped by Hamas terrorists into Gaza, alongside his mother, Keren, and his grandparents. On Monday, October 23rd, Ohad will turn 9. We send Ohad and all those who were kidnapped strength and courage. We hope and pray we will be able to celebrate with them soon. Israel will spare no effort to bring them home, safe and sound. Please join Shirin and me in wishing Ohad a happy birthday by signing the e-card linked below or by sending an email to: KIDnappedBday@washington.mfa.gov.il #KIDnappedBday recocards.com/greeting-card/…

300 e-bikes/ batteries and scooters. At this point we can only blame the inept ⁦@NYCCouncil⁩ for not outright banning these illegal and dangerous vehicles. Everyone is in jeopardy. ⁦@AFineBlogger⁩ ⁦@savetheuws⁩ ⁦@nicolegelinas⁩ abc7ny.com/fire-three-ala…

While the world / city is consumed with the war in Israel - community boards will be awarding Marijuana licenses in your community. Unclear as to why CB's are equipped to do so given the nature of this drug. ⁦@savetheuws⁩ ⁦@DonutShorts⁩ thecity.nyc/2023/10/16/can…

Hi @nyc311 - 3 cars racing on west side highway. By exit 12.

An Al Jazeera broadcast documented the moment that the Islamic Jihad launched a rocket which misfired and hit a hospital in Gaza, killing hundreds.
