@jasgripper.bsky.social from the @nywfp.bsky.social. Huge respect for the NYWFP for pushing the #RankTheSlate initiative during the mayoral primary that laid the groundwork for the Mamdani/Lander partnership and a lot of progressive solidarity you see in NYC now.

This is a total non-starter and every Democrat should fiercely oppose it. Authorizing a single dollar more for this illegal war would be unconscionable (much less $200B more!). If your congressmember isn’t raising all sorts of hell to stop this, then it’s time to replace them.

Donald Trump, alongside Benjamin Netanyahu, has launched a dangerous and illegal war that will put working people here at home and across the world in grave danger.

Raising taxes on the wealthy won’t drive millionaires out of New York—it will help keep the city livable for everyone. Our Chair, and proud New Yorker, Morris Pearl explains why he’s willing to pay more in taxes so everyone can afford to live and enjoy all that New York City has to offer.

Trump’s threats to deploy troops to our city makes all of us less safe. This is un-American and creates chaos that only weakens our local communities and economy. New Yorkers want a safe and affordable city, and we are united in demanding that Trump keep his hands off NYC.
