Today we honor the memory of Cecilia Gentili by continuing the fight for sex work decriminalization.

Decriminalizing sex work is harm reduction. #SVSTA  will increase public health and safety and decrease trafficking in NY.

Cutting this lifesaving program would be unconscionable. Shows not only a total disregard for LGBTQ+ New Yorkers but a lack of care for public health in general.

The budget cuts that Mayor Eric Adams is pushing would REVERSE the progress NYC has made toward ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic. ⏮️

We hope New York City Council will stand strong against cuts that undermine public health.

Very proud to bring this big Housing Works group to Albany today with Communities Not Cages.

We’re here just after Mothers Day calling on our lawmakers to reunite families with the Earned Time Act, Second Look Act, and the End Mandatory Minimums Act.

BREAKING: The Drug Checking Services Bill passed out of the Senate Finance Committee and heads to the Senate Floor

This morning, nearly 90 orgs sent a letter to Carl E. Heastie & Sen. Stewart-Cousins urging the passage of this critical bill

Thank you Nathalia Fernandez for your leadership

The NYPD regularly delays and obstructs discipline processes for officers who kill and abuse New Yorkers. They've been sitting on charges against Lt. Rivera for the murder of #AllanFeliz for almost a year. We are calling on Mayor Eric Adams & Edward A. Caban to serve the charges.

Lt. Rivera has 34 misconduct allegations and has cost the city $115,000 in settlements so far. He should have been fired long before he killed #AllanFeliz . It’s past time for Mayor Eric Adams & Edward A. Caban #FireJonathanRivera

In May of last year, NYC CCRB substantiated fire-able charges against Lt. Rivera, but the NYPD has refused to serve them for almost a full year. The NYPD needs to get out of the way - serve the charges to Rivera and let the CCRB do its job and prosecute Lt Rivera.

On 10/17/19 #AllanFeliz was racially profiled, illegally detained & killed by Lt. Jonathan Rivera. While Allan's infant son grows up without a father, Rivera has received 10s of 1000s of dollars in pay increases. Mayor Eric Adams & Edward A. Caban must #FireJonathanRivera !

Our CEO Charles King is front and center in the New York Daily News, blasting Mayor Eric Adams’s potential choice of Randy Mastro. Read to find out why Mastro is the WRONG pick for NYC’s top legal position.

It's past time to hold the NYPD accountable for killing #AllanFeliz . Join this social media action on 4/30 to demand Mayor Eric Adams & Edward A. Caban stop the delays, leave the case against Lt. Rivera with the @ccrb_nyc, and #FireJonathanRivera for murdering Allan during an unjust car stop.

We've achieved some victories, but our journey isn't over yet. We demand comprehensive public health solutions for all New Yorkers. Click the link for more on our statement on the NYS budget: housingworks.org/press/unfulfil…

The War on Drugs is a war on people. Criminalization only drives use into the dark where options for harm reduction and enjoyment are limited. It only perpetuates stigma & silence and increases the losses we experience each day.

Better policy choices exist. We just need courage.

.Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal’s bill S.7089 passed out of Chair Gustavo Rivera's Health Committee! This bill brings NYS law into alignment with CDC guidance on HIV testing. Passing this bill is essential to ending AIDS statewide.

Today, 10 bills passed the New York State Senate Health Committee including my new bill to require valuable community input & strengthen state review for proposed hospital or unit closures. We also passed my bill to allow undocumented New Yorkers to receive kidney transplants.

Thank you Nathalia Fernandez!

.Mayor Eric Adams + Edward A. Caban's decision not to #FireThompsonandDavis is appalling and leaves a terrible disciplinary precedent. We won't stay silent while #NYPD kills NYers without impunity or accountability. Join us today @ Foley Square @ 5!

After 5 years of delays and coverups, Commissioner Cabán's decision not to fire the officers is unacceptable! We demand justice and accountability. #KawaskiTrawick Shame on you Mayor Eric Adams and Edward A. Caban

Join us in mourning and expressing rage at Foley Square today. Stand with us against the unjust decision not to hold Officers Thompson and Davis accountable for the murder of Kawaski Trawick. Shame on you Mayor Eric Adams and Edward A. Caban.
