NYC's next mayor is an ecosocialist 🌱 From stopping new smokestacks in Astoria to winning public renewables and fighting Con Ed's rate hike, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social has led the fight for a #GreenNewYork from Day 1. Now it's time to build it. Join us. ecosocialists.nyc/join-us/
![Mamdani supports the [Public Power NY] effort to get the power authority to move faster and build 15 gigawatts of renewables, including a third of that in the downstate region. The authority currently has plans to build 6 gigawatts, although many of those projects are in the early stages of vetting.
As mayor of New York City, Mamdani would have a significant platform to pressure the power authority and Gov. Kathy Hochul to do more to decarbonize the downstate grid. The region’s electricity mix is currently 89 percent fossil fuels.
He could also promote additional solar and storage on city properties if he ascends to City Hall, although there is already a local law setting targets for solar on city facilities.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:dx7xfcbtkmkerk72yxqwdo55/bafkreiba3ht3bujg4dxlqqfnx2g5waepta6xkkudgqf2vg22qjcsjm3o7m)
In June my husband’s drawings are getting published in @nytimes.com. He’s also drawn portraits of me, him, and our cats. We are a half Iranian family based in LA. June has been a difficult month for LA, Iran, and our family. Flipping through pages of NYT has been a mixed bag of emotions.
Throughout the month of June, my husband’s drawings will be printed in New York Times. It will mainly be a collection of portraits with a newspaper. Stay tuned for more!!! I am so excited about this. It was not that easy to find print copies of NYT in LA but we managed.
At-Large delegate ballots are open! This convention, help change national DSA from a patchwork to a mass party by electing our "DSA For All" slate! Cast your vote by June 6th.
BING BONG stand clear of the closing doors - next stop: Chicago 🚊 NYC DSA members: Rank any of these names first followed by our slate! We want members to directly elect leaders and vote on big decisions; we want DSA to lead, not follow other orgs 🌹 groundworkdsa.com

Two-thirds of NYers support city-owned grocery stores. Three-fourths support free buses. Nearly 80% support a rent-freeze. I'm running for mayor to deliver these exact policies. Our campaign is surging because unlike Andrew Cuomo, we know what working people need and deserve.

Immigrants have also been at the forefront of the US labor movement. Check out the 1912 Lawrence textile strike ("Bread and Roses Strike") and 1982 garment workers' strike (done by Chinatown workers). I support garment workers *and* immigrants because they're often one and the same.
