We hope you enjoyed your holidays! The weather is warming and it's time to get ready for our #Spring actions. First, get to know the ins and outs of the #NYHealthAct. We are having a meeting where you can ask questions of those in the know. RSVP! April 12 in #Yonkers! Pls Share!

Democrats pay visit to ICE detention facility where abuse claims are rife California House members tour Otay Mesa facility, which has faced allegations of poor conditions and sexual assaults ...

Hastings and Yonkers #NoKings3 marches met up, about 750 ppl in all. @nycd16-indivisible.bsky.social, local Yonkers NAACP, Concerned Families of Westchester co-sponsored.

Hey Folks!! Get this on your calendar now and spread the word. On April 12 we have top speakers who will inform you about the #NYHealthAct, and answer your questions. You don't want to miss this. RSVP!

Getting ready for #NOKINGS3. We are also a co-sponsor of a #BRONX event. If you are in the area, join us!!

NEW: New York Focus is suing the state prison agency. @hellgatenyc.com reporter @nickpinto.bsky.social interviewed @chrisgelardi.bsky.social, New York Focus’s justice bureau chief, and Hell Gate’s @jessyedwards.bsky.social about the lawsuit, their reporting, and why it matters.

NEW: For two years, Modou had compiled evidence that, if the United States deported him to his home country of Senegal, he’d face persecution for marrying someone of a different faith. Now instead of Senegal, ICE wants to send Modou to Uganda, 4,500 miles from his home country.

NEW: While lawmakers await Hochul’s next move on potential larger climate rollbacks, the two chambers’ unified push for a fresh $1 billion clean energy fund — a key demand from advocates — sets up this year’s clearest fight over New York’s next steps on the green transition.

#MarchMeetingLive Thx for following along. Next meeting is April 12!~ Mark your calendars.

#MarchMeetingLive The #NovemberElection could be "dicey." Intimidation, #ICE, & more. The muscle needs to be built to protect #ElectionIntegrity. We have to be able to switch our focus on a dime. Check out website #ElectionProtection. "This movement is working." (As in, "It could have been worse.")

#MarchMeetingLive We have to unite everyone. Young and older. How do we activate folks? Personal outreach? Doing postcards with good appetizers (and wine??) Make it fun (Singing?dancing?)! Make a list of 4 or 5 peeps to reach out to for #NoKingsDay. Do local! That's important. Impact your Reps

#MarchMeetingLive #NoKings3 on March 28 already has more sign ups. But, we need to get folks involved in showing up to #protest. #LisaGenn is speaking about our 2 local events. One is in the #Bronx, the other is in #Yonkers/Hastings. For latter, 2 starting points that meet in the middle.

#MarchMeetingLive @msifry.bsky.social showing what the public has been able to accomplish within 2025. #TeslaDemonstrations, #HandsOff, "Protest changed the direction of things." Why does this iteration feel so different? Trump2.0 isn't getting pushback from establishment entities (Think #Harvard)

#MarchMeetingLive @msifry.bsky.social and #LisaGenn are up to speak. #MicahSifry is leading talkback about how folks are handling this moment. Comment on the "shock of the #IranWar." An #outrage a day. How do you deal with the stress? "We have to build Mass Non-Cooperation." Politicos will follow.

#MarchMeetingLive Question on why #Peekskill was targeted. Lots of #Dems there, but they are not voting. Sometimes it's a language barrier. Do you speak Spanish? Join the group to speak to Spanish-speaking voters!!

#MarchMeetingLive In case you want to know more about us, check out our homepage: nycd16-indivisible.org

#MarchMeetingLive There is also a bilingual group that was formed for Spanish speaking voters. Now #Chapnick is running a one-minute training session. Sounds of voices in the room is very vibrant.

#MarchMeetingLive One of the top priorities is defeating Republican #MikeLawler, who is a #Trump crony. #DeepCanvassing is all about making a connection with the person that you speak with."No speed rap." There is training and mentoring. 76.1 percent of peeps they spoke with were morelikely to vote.

#MarchMeetingLive #EllenChapnick is up to talk about #DeepCanvassing. #CanvassingConnectors is the group. Relating story about how she built a relationship with someone she spoke to who decided to vote.

#MarchMeetingLive Speaker from the #Bronx area of our group stating,"We can't go back to the status quo."

#MarchMeetingLive Why can't our #Dems get stuff moving?? #NYState is top heavy in wealth. For a tax, only a fraction of 1 percent of #NYresidents will be impacted. #GovernorHochul is the main impediment here. We are going to have a QR code in our newletter to take action on this! #TaxTheRich

#MarchMeetingLive Discussions about the #TaxTheRich movement and the importance of bringing more peopleinto the political process. "Democracy doesn't aware unless people are aware." #PoliticalEngagement is not a sham. Lotsof millionaires in #NYState. #Hochul's budget has no #TaxesfortheRich.

#MarchMeetingLive Discussion on the #NYHealthAct. Been around for 20 years waiting to get passed. Big #pharma and #Insurance Big Boys are not happy with this idea. #SenatorGustavoRivera is one of the champions of this legislation. We need to get @leaderasc.bsky.social to bring to the floor.

#MarchMeetingLive We will show up locally to stand on streets to protest and spread the word. These little groups help to activate their communities. Not to mention, people on the street are collecting signatures to get peopleon the ballots to run for office.

#MarchMeetingLive "We are at an epic battle." Rundown on the disasters. "It is upt o us to show that this Republic is worth saving." Resistance to autocracy. Pushing our electeds. Committees devoted to specific issues. We've been 2 #Albany. Trained folks to speak to local businesses to protect.

#MarchMeetingLive #EileenOConnor is running the mic. She is asking new folks what brought them to the meeting. And now there are some singers to get us started "and lift up our spirits." Beginning with, "Someone is hurting our neighbors and it's gone on far to long."

#MarchMeetingLive starting. We are starting with a quote from #ShirleyChilsolm on the waste of dollars on munitions when kids need to be educated.

via #IndivisibleWestchester: #RepMikeLawler faced fierce pushback at his Feb. 2 TownHall in Rockland. Voters challenged him on #ICE, #energy costs & #healthcare.

The #Groundhound is back, and so are we! Join us for our Sunday, Feb. 8 meeting at #Yonkers Riverfront library. Share and respond!!

We cannot settle for empty reforms while ICE and CBP terrorize our communities, violate our constitutional rights, and kill innocent people. Demand that your Democratic senators hold the line and use their leverage to secure real restrictions on the regime’s secret police.

#CandidatesZoom Well, how great was that? And we only went 4 minutes over! Thanks for joining us. Our next meeting is February 8!

#CandidatesZoom We are closing out with @leaderasc.bsky.social. "We are all rowing in the same direction." #NY4All ASC says, "I'm happy that the Gov pushed back on #ICE. We need to protect our people." Her final words, "We live to fight another day!"

#CandidatesZoom #MorganEvers supports the #NYHealthAct. She is giving a shout out to #SentorGustavoRivera for his work on this.

#CandidatesZoom #MorganEvers was asked abt her opponent who has been in office since 1994. She noted he has seniority, but things in the #Assembly are NOT moving. She is making it clear she is not a one-area person. She plans to represent ALL of the #NWBronx. Supports east-west buses. #NewBusRoutes

#CandidatesZoom #MorganEvers is up running for AD81. "Running a grassroots campaign." NYC teacher for two decades. "We need people in #Albany." #Healthcare is a main focus. "We need to pass the #NY4AllAct." She is visually impaired. Project2025 is trying to take away #ADA rights. Referri

#CandidatesZoom @delgadoforny.bsky.social is making it clear that he's not in league with #TheBigBoys. Not taking #corporatepacmoney. He has reached the place where he can get matching funds. "We must reflect our values and meet the moment. "#Trump has no business being near power."

#CandidatesZoom @delgadoforny.bsky.social "#Hochul is pursuing #Nuclear, when we could be doing #renewables. The reason the rates of energy are going up is that the delivery methods are out of date. On #NursingStrike, no backroom deals. To hospitals: #Patient safety is at risk."

#CandidatesZoom @delgadoforny.bsky.social is up. "I'm running because the status quo is broken. 1 in 5 kids in poverty. This state has the largest state inequality. Going to big biz, real estate, finance." He supports "Taxing the rich. Single payer health care. Ban masks on #ICEagents. #Climate
