@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social + Mandy Patinkin + Latkes = 😍

These important wins are just the start. NELP’s New York City Worker Justice Agenda details more ways that the new mayor, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, and City Council can build a #GoodJobsEconomy and a city where working families can survive and thrive. www.nelp.org/insights-res...

And @streetvendorproj.bsky.social won an increase in the number of permits and licenses available to vendors, helping ensure #workers are not subject to fines and fees while doing vending work in #NewYork. nytimes.com/2025/12/18/nyregion/nyc-street-vendor-permits-cap-raised.html

Construction #workers at Laborers Local 79 won the Construction Justice Act, guaranteeing a living wage and job opportunities for low-income New Yorkers on projects building the affordable housing the city needs: www.cityandstateny.com/sponsors/spo...

Security guards & @32bjseiu.bsky.social won a living wage and health benefits for these essential #workers who keep our city safe – paving the way for future action to finally enact a New York City #MinimumWage: www.seiu32bj.org/press-releas...

After a hard-fought campaign against #Uber & #Doordash, the New York Taxi Workers Alliance & the Workers Justice Project won just cause protections against the unfair firings that plague the ridehail and delivery industries. www.nelp.org/in-historic-...

🧵With our partners, NELP is thrilled to celebrate four major worker justice victories this week in the New York City Council:

Big tech shouldn’t be able to weaponize your personal data to jack up consumer prices and low-ball worker pay for people who don’t have other options.

Thrilled to see our Pres & CEO Rebecca Dixon named to Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social ’s Committee on Worker Justice. www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news...

Kvelling over the 100+ JFREJers who canvassed in Queens, Manhattan, Bronx, & Brooklyn and rallied with the People's Majority coalition for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social today. >2 DAYS to win a path to a more just NYC: Make your plan to vote Tues & join Jews 4 Zohran on doors + phones: jfrej.org/field

Deliveristas need protection against rampant unfair firing by the delivery apps. Kudos to @justinbrannan.bsky.social, @bradlander.bsky.social & @galebrewernyc.bsky.social for fighting to make that happen

Dan Goldman thinks that over 150 years of inherited generational wealth is being a “beneficiary of the American Dream” … and that’s a reason to vote FOR him. 😵😵😵

Also, it's a real coward's move not to link to the post, which proceeds to explain *why* and *in what way* it represents a cautionary tale! Here's the post, so you can judge: lpeproject.org/blog/why-we-...

This is bad enough coming from MAGA legislators. But in deep-blue DC, @murielbowser.bsky.social and @chmnmendelson.bsky.social are shockingly doing the same thing: rolling back badly needed voter-approved wage increases for tipped workers and slashing paid family leave

Still basking in the glow of Zohran's primary win? Me too! But please also take 1 minute to defend the closed primary system that helped make Z's win possible. Eric Adams' commission is trying to open primaries so that Republicans can vote in Dem primaries. Tell them NO. bit.ly/NoOpenPrimariesNYC 🧵

Why the hell are @murielbowser.bsky.social and @chmnmendelson.bsky.social blocking a badly needed wage increase for tipped workers? They're bought and paid for by the DC restaurant lobby and are a national embarrassment. www.nelp.org/mayor-bowser...

So proud of @shahanafrombk.bsky.social and the voters of the 39th district for showing that caring for your neighbors and real results are more powerful than big money and hate

As we celebrate the Zohran earthquake, deep thanks to @bradlander.bsky.social for his heroic and selfless movement leadership and solidarity

My choice to protect our neighbors from ICE and Trump: ✅Showed up today to support (and last week, and the one before that ). ✅ has passed and introduced legislation to stop ICE ✅ chaired the Immigration committee That’s @shahanafrombk.bsky.social

Updated door signs for NYC primary next week!! @jfrejnyc.bsky.social

Just got yet another super-PAC mailer backing @mayaforcouncil.bsky.social This time it’s from “Moving New York Families Forward” — a pro-charter school super-PAC funded by Mike Bloomberg. Does Maya Kornberg want to privatize our public schools?

How NYC's next mayor can raise the minimum wage without waiting for Albany -- my latest with Columbia Law's Dennis Fan

Opened my mailbox to a 2nd Uber mailer and an MSG mailer alongside one small one from the actual Maya campaign. I’m PROUD my rep @shahanafrombk.bsky.social stands up for workers and communities so much and legislates so effectively they want to unseat her.

The fact that so much outside money is flooding into this local race is all the more galling when you consider that Hanif's opponent, worked at the Brennan Center for Justice on "money in politics."

Because @shahanafrombk.bsky.social is standing up for workers and fighting for things like paid sick leave, Uber is backing her opponent with over $129,000 in mail and digital ad spending. If you live in District 39 in Brooklyn, please vote for Shahana Hanif. Let's keep big money out of politics.

Fun day at the Grand Army farmer’s market talking to voters about @shahanafrombk.bsky.social — they get that if Uber is spending big for her opponent she must be fighting the good fight @jfrejnyc.bsky.social

@dartmouthcollege.bsky.social president @sianbeilock.bsky.social insists to alums that she's fighting Trump's attacks on higher ed - yet hires a Stephen Miller ally as general counsel

NYC council member @shahanafrombk.bsky.social and @jfrejnyc.bsky.social member @paulsonn.bsky.social talk about Uber's terrible track record and the fact that spending thousands to support Hanif's primary challenger. Nikon FM2n, Nikon Nikkor 105mm f2.5, Ilford 3200. #BelieveInFilm

Among the folks supporting Hanif and speaking out against Uber at this event were Uber workers, DRUM Beats, Bluesky's own @paulsonn.bsky.social, and Brooklyn Young Democrats. The woman in the photo above with Hanif is from DRUM Beats - check out their website here! www.drumbeatsnyc.org/who-we-are

Let's get clear! @shahanafrombk.bsky.social is endorsed by: EVERY union who has made an endorsement (and the CLC). EVERY environmental, LGBTQ, women's, and progressive / resistance group who has made an endorsement. And dozens of electeds & leaders spanning the diversity of our district & city.

Uber PAC is sending mailers claiming “progressive values” 🤣🤣🤣 @shahanafrombk.bsky.social fights for drivers and delivery workers… so Uber is just one of MANY corporations, Trumpers and billionaires trying to unseat her. That’s why Shahana is THE progressive champion I’m working to reelect.

Just got this mailer from anti-worker Uber's super PAC -- the latest corporate interest backing @mayaforcouncil.bsky.social Proud to be supporting the true progressive choice @shahanafrombk.bsky.social!

@daveyseligman.bsky.social -- one of the nation's fiercest and most innovative legal fighters for workers and consumers -- just launched his campaign for CO Atty Gen'l. David would be a superb AG. Please consider supporting him TODAY - contribution link below.

Excellent op-ed by Steve Choi urging Gov Hochul to remove the corrupt and conflicted Eric Adams

As the federal policy environment becomes hostile to #WorkersRights, states will need to step up to the plate to lock in wins on #overtime, #HeatProtections, & more. @paulsonn.bsky.social & @terrigerstein.bsky.social offer some jumping-off points @newsweek.com: www.newsweek.com/trump-20-wil...

Under Trump 2.0, states must act to protect workers (& so much more). I wrote in @newsweek.com w/ @paulsonn.bsky.social about how states can start: Building on smart Biden admin #WorkersRights policies like banning #NonCompetes & expanding overtime /1 www.newsweek.com/trump-20-wil...

As the federal government recedes from protecting working people, state leaders will need to be bold and creative in filling the void. My new piece with @terrigerstein.bsky.social in @newsweek.com www.newsweek.com/trump-20-wil...
