We have important news to share with you.

As we prepare to close out 2025 and welcome a new year, the CPR Family would like to take a moment to acknowledge the hardships that this year has presented to our communities as we wish you and yours a happy and peaceful holiday season.

The New York City Council is considering a bill that would require the NYPD to grant direct access to bodycam footage to the CCRB, the city's police watchdog agency. The police can't be trusted to police themselves. We must keep fighting for police transparency and accountability.

Police sexual violence is an insidious problem impacting NYers across all communities. Our new report with CUNY Graduate Center’s Public Science Project exposes how police sexual violence is one of the largest threats to public safety in NYC. Learn more at bit.ly/psvinnyc

Police sexual violence impacts nearly 1 in 5 NYers yet <1% of police officers who commit acts of sexual violence are held accountable. This is a crisis that must be addressed through oversight, transparency & accountability. Read our new report bit.ly/psvinnyc & read the article at bit.ly/nycpsvam

By arresting a child with legal status at a routine check-in, ICE acted with brazen cruelty, broke U.S. law, and violated the Constitution. The Trump administration should expect to keep seeing us in court if they continue to punish people for following the rules.

Wayne Isaacs killed #DelrawnSmall in front of his baby nearly a DECADE ago. Now, Isaacs & his lawyers are trying to get off free - again. 📢 Join Delrawn’s family TOMORROW Nov. 13 at 10:30am at 1 Police Plaza to demand @NYPDPC Tisch uphold the charges & finally #FireWayneIsaacs!

In response to Zohran Mamdani's historic win CPR released a statement from spokesperson Sala Cyril, lead organizer with Malcom X Grassroots Movement. As we usher in a new administration we urge him to prioritize the safety, dignity, & rights of all NYers. Read our statement at bit.ly/cprmayor2025

"26 Federal Plaza isn’t functioning as a courthouse. It’s functioning as an abduction trap. And as an inhumane de facto jail." - @nyccomptroller.bsky.social We're suing the Trump administration over their - illegal - policy of arresting people for appearing in court. And we won't back down.

In 2019, NYPD Lt. Rivera beat, tased, shot + killed #AllanFeliz during an unjust traffic stop. 6 years later, Rivera has faced ZERO consequences. This cannot stand! On 10/16 12pm, join the Feliz family as they remember Allan & announce next steps in their fight for accountability

NEW: We've received reports that ICE agents are unlawfully banning ALL books from entering the Buffalo Federal Detention Facility. Titles include a dictionary, religious books - even a Sudoku puzzle book. This is a blatant First Amendment violation. The facility must change course, now.

Today, New York City and the NYPD will enter into phase two of the Payne settlement, the 2023 landmark agreement reforming the NYPD’s protest policing reached with the NYCLU, @legalaidnyc.bsky.social, @newyorkstateag.bsky.social, and others.⁠ Here's what you should know 🧵

We refuse to be intimidated by the Trump administration’s attacks on our rights and communities. Join us on Saturday, October 18 for the NYC No Kings march:

NYers are surrounding 26 Fed Plaza right now with clear demands: 🧊Get #ICEOutOfNY & release all immigrants detained at 26 Federal Plaza; 🪖No federal troops in NYC; 🦋Pass #NY4All & the NYC Trust Act. It’s time for our leaders to take action to protect ALL New Yorkers, including immigrants.

JFREJ joined 100s in NYC today to demand #ICEoutofNY #AbolishICE Take action and call @governor.ny.gov Governor Kathy Hochul at 518-474-8390 and tell her to pass NY4All‼️ @justicecommittee.bsky.social @thenyic.bsky.social @maketheroad.bsky.social @socialists.nyc @ndlon.bsky.social @psc-cuny.org

Our rights don't disappear when we interract with immigrant officers. Make sure you know your rights:

Oliver Mata Velazquez is a 19-year old asylum seeker. When he showed up for his mandatory immigration court hearing in Buffalo in June, ICE agents illegally snatched him. The NYCLU, Prisoners’ Legal Services of New York, and @rfkhumanrights.bsky.social sued. And we won his release.

We know that more police do not keep us safe, yet Mayor Adams and Police Commissioner Tisch continue to expand NYPD presence in our communities, which we know disproportionately harms and targets NYers in our vulnerable communities. www.amny.com/police-fire/...

Our client Carlos Lopez Benitez is reunited with his sisters and community after being detained for two harrowing weeks in both NY & Texas! Thanks to our legal team’s swift action & submission of a habeas petition arguing his right to due process was violated, a federal judge ordered his release. 🧵

Over the last few months, the trans community has seen an increase in policy attacks, with 950+ pieces of legislation being introduced across the country that enable trans erasure. #TransLatinxMarch 💪 In the face of attacks against our communities, we say: 🏳️‍⚧️ TRANS LIVES ARE VALUABLE!🏳️‍⚧️

"ICE arrests jumped 46% this May, to 409 up from 281 last year. In the first 10 days of June, ICE agents in NYC made 495 arrests— more than 2x the 247 arrests it made in all of June last year.” 👇See how ICE's access to our immigration courts is increasing this trend. www.thecity.nyc/2025/07/14/i...

✊ We are facing the most brazen rollback of civil rights in generations. The same forces that used violence against John Lewis are back, with billionaire backers and authoritarian ambition. Join us July 17 at 5:30pm in Foley Sq because #GoodTroubleLivesOn. 🤍 Wear white and bring flowers!

The detentions occurring inside NYC immigration courts often have no legal basis & detainees are routinely denied the right to due process or even given access to legal advice. These out-of-control ICE arrests have no place in our city. @cmalexaaviles.bsky.social @phara4assembly.bsky.social

It’s ironic that Nassau County Exec Bruce Blakeman — who fought relentlessly to ban people from wearing masks — is now pushing to allow police officers to wear a mask whenever they please. So, a masked police officer could legally arrest someone…for wearing a mask. The hypocrisy is astounding.

🚨ALL OUT FOR #AllanFeliz 🚨Friday is the last chance to force @NYPDPC to #FireJonathanRivera after she made a shameful preliminary decision to reverse the guilty verdict. We have hours left to demand #FireJonathanRivera! 📢EMAIL bit.ly/email4allan 📍Rally 7/11 12pm @ 1PP

“These conditions are inhumane as individuals detained do not have access to beds, regular meals, or communication with loved ones or counsel.” Immigrant New Yorkers deserve respect and dignity. It’s time for our NY leadership to step up & stop the abuses happening inside this building.

Under Mayor Adams, police stops have risen, NYPD misconduct claims have increased by over 50% & discipline in police brutality cases has increasingly been buried & blocked – most recently seen through Tisch's decision to not #FireJonathanRivera for killing #AllanFeliz. And now this.

"On Friday, Tisch disappointed anyone who bought that, going against the recommendations of both the Civilian Complaint Review Board and an NYPD judge, and declining to fire Lieutenant Jonathan Rivera, who killed Allan Feliz during a traffic stop in 2019." hellgatenyc.com/allan-feliz-...

Our response to @NYPDPC Tisch's decision to flip the guilty verdict for Lt. Rivera after the NYPD's judge and Deputy Commissioner said to fire him for his role in the murder of #AllanFeliz. #FireJonathanRivera!

If you couldn't attend the rally, you can STILL support #AllanFeliz and the Feliz Family through the end of the week by emailing @nypdpc.bsky.social & Mayor Adams and calling on them to reverse Tisch's cowardly decision and #FireJonathanRivera! Email NOW: bit.ly/email4allan

🚨A new job touted by the Adams admin violates state law: It would assign school safety agents - high school grads under the age of 21 stationed in elementary schools - the responsibility of enforcing school rules. NYC should not be expanding police-like surveillance to little kids in the classroom.

🚨EMERGENCY ACTION🚨On 7/3 @NYPDPC released a *preliminary* decision to FLIP the guilty verdict for Lt. Rivera - after her own Deputy Commish said FIRE HIM. This cowardly, out-of-process move betrays #AllanFeliz’s family & all NYers. Rally: TODAY, 5p, 1PP #FireJonathanRivera

⚖️On Friday, June 27th, the Supreme Court issued a decision in the birthright case. There’s already a lot of misinformation circulating about what this means. Check out our infographics to learn what the Supreme Court DID & did NOT say so you can keep your family, friends & neighbors informed!

Whether we know it or not, we're all swimming in a sea of what author Alec Karakatsanis calls Copaganda: How the media decides what to cover, who to quote, and what language to use. On this ep of Rights This Way, @equalityalec.bsky.social breaks down what Copaganda is and what we can do about it:

New Yorkers deserve a Civilian Complaint Review Board that is committed to protecting them - not the abusive officers they're supposed to be investigating and holding accountable.

👀 Have you seen ICE in your neighborhood & weren’t sure who to alert? Save this post so you’re prepared for next time. As immigrant New Yorkers continue being targeted by a cruel deportation agenda, it’s up to us to defend our communities. 🧵

“The idea that in BK there’s this jail into which possibly 100 people have vanished & have no access to counsel & can't be contacted, is incongruous + deeply disturbing," says Paige Austin from our legal team. The shocking reason attorneys are being turned away.⬇️ www.nydailynews.com/2025/06/27/i...

🚨 Breaking: SCOTUS refused to rule on eliminating birthright citizenship — and instead limited nationwide injunctions, making it harder to stop harmful executive orders. This weakens protections for all. Read our full statement: https://visit.latinojustice.org/citizenship

Let’s be clear: Trump’s unconstitutional + cruel EO decimating birthright citizenship is still blocked in NY + remains blocked nationwide for at least 30 days. The fight in lower courts goes on. We will use every tool to prevent any child from being denied citizenship under this illegal policy.

“They blatantly disregard people’s rights & take them from their jobs, homes and streets, all while masked & unidentified.” says Natalia Aristizabal, our deputy director. See how the “No Secret Police Act” will protect out communities. www.huffpost.com/entry/democr...
