We need people in City Hall who know that we—not the real estate industry, not the landlords—put them there, says @ceaweaver.bsky.social of @tenantbloc.bsky.social: www.commondreams.org/opinion/zohr...

“We outnumber them, and we have already shown we can out-organize them,” @ceaweaver.bsky.social said. “Come November, we will elect Zohran Mamdani and win the rent freeze tenants so desperately need.” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/30/n...

Just arrived home from the endorsement meeting, and these are my thoughts: @socialists.nyc is the only organization capable of producing a candidate like Zohran. @nywfp.bsky.social is the only organization capable of cohering the organized Left. I'm very proud of both of my orgs. Let's win this.

God hates Andrew Cuomo

A new way to figure out if you're entitled to a lower rent increase this year just dropped. I spoke with @ceaweaver.bsky.social about this Good Cause Eviction caclculator from Housing Justice for All and JustFix last week.

Very proud of this also

I am so proud to receive the endorsement of the @tenantbloc.bsky.social. With the power of our city's tenant majority, we're going to freeze the rent and win a city we can afford.

Every New Yorker deserves a safe, healthy and affordable place to call home. Winning that city is at the center of this campaign. It was a privilege to sit down with @tenantbloc.bsky.social organizers last month to talk about our vision for renters.

A new fun thing I do is count how many @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for mayor signs I see in houses and delis when I go out on a walk. It’s always a lot

We're out ALL OVER today talking to rent stabilized voters and reminding them that the Mayor controls the rents! We need ALL MAYORAL CANDIDATES to commit to a rent freeze! There are 2.4 million rent stabilized tenants -- we make New York New York, and we deserve to stay.

Folks, we've got tables. Sign up for any of four locations in BK and Queens, Saturday mornings thru March, to spread the word about a new kind of housing: housethefuture.com/tabling

There are lots of things the mayor CANT do on housing, but freezing the rent is one of the only things they can unilaterally do for 2.4 million New York renters. Policy plans are great, so is a rent freeze

Amazing turnout of canvassers on a cold winter’s day for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social campaign for Mayor ❤️ 🔥 We endorse! ✅ free buses ✅ rent freeze ✅ no cost child care

As someone who's been doing electoral work since 2008, I can tell you that @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's mayoral field game is the best I've seen yet, including even John Liu 2013. The Left must be ready to rank several candidates, but Zohran is most definitely a contender. youtu.be/RDnwOLZFhyI?...

My fave thing is seeing hj4a merch on strangers out in the wild

“It just doesn’t seem to me like this is someone who is at all aligned with what the values of that agency should be,” said @ceaweaver.bsky.social @housingjustice4all.bsky.social. “It’s a deregulatory agenda, and it’s an anti-poor people agenda.”

“Describing people as poor, vulnerable, struggling, low-income, or in search of dignity may not square with their perception of themselves and their situation.” convergencemag.com/articles/we-...

Got 6 or 8 group chats plotting out the best approach to timothee chalamet rn

Tune into our livestream today at 1: 100s of tenants will be asking mayoral candidates to freeze the rent and invest in our homes to earn our votes! www.facebook.com/events/93551...

70% of New Yorkers rent. We'll be voting for a mayor who works for us -- not real estate. On NY1 this morning previewing today's Mayoral Forum.

Tenants are half NY state - but wealthy landlords and developers control our homes, neighborhoods, and even our democracy. It's time to take back the state for tenants. Join me and @housingjustice4all.bsky.social as we launch a powerful new organization on Monday. RSVP: hj4a.org/Dec9

Dems failed the working class - we are building a 250,000 person tenant bloc and won’t let it happen again Join us ⬇️

Join us Monday, December 9 to launch a new power building project for renters in New York State. Tickets: hj4a.org/Dec9

Every time Ritchie Torres says something about Kathy Hochul or Kathy Hochul says something about Ritchie Torres

With every decision we make we have to ask — Will this help us reach unorganized people? Will it grow our power? We can’t expect different results using the same strategy, the same decisions, the same too-small set of organizations + people

HUD already operates on basically a shoestring budget. Waiting lists for subsidized housing are many years long and every year units are lost because housing authorities don’t get enough funding to make necessary repairs. Further cuts will put vulnerable people directly onto the streets.😖

Perhaps it’s not the most riveting answer but Sanitation issues are a big one. Landlord issues is maybe number 2. Your city councilperson can do a lot! Like when they were rolling out the rat bins in NYC, sometimes areas that got them came down to those who asked! Good rep + ppl speaking up matters

Fishkill is not a progressive place. It’s a purple, rural town where the town board voted for good cause - a stronger version than NYCs at that. Dems need to wake up

Hello to bluesky from Barcelona, where we are learning lots of things about how social movements can (and can’t) run a city 🫡
