nothing is true about building affordable housing,+ there is no iron clad paperwork on what is to be built. and go and check out steve ross and what he did with hudson yards...how he promise rentals for $858 a month but what happened when he built

this was written by eric adams and his cronies go and study Atlantic yard in BK see how they promised a black community the world and in the end 2 companies went bankrupt and no community benefits were delivered. they got tax subsidized stadium and luxury offices and condos
Conservatives have been sliding from Open NY to @nycDSA for years.

The @NYCMayor #Mamdani #CeaWeaver, #LeilaBozorg and the gentrifying and yes I said it racist factions of the @nycdsa #DSA actually do want to evict and displace seniors, disabled and working families of color. They want to continue the trend of Chelsea becoming richer and whiter. Funny how Mamdani cares about the black and brown immigrants from outside of the US, but not the ones in the city he is Mayor of.

With you on that @SaveSection9. Layla was instrumental in securing our lawyers for the TRO, and also helped build an effective PR team. I have been in this fight since 2019, and work closely with @LaylaLawGisiko and the Save Chelsea Public Housing Coalition. And I have not met a more effective, professional ally.
I remember my first meeting with @laylaLawGisiko and raining 🔥 on her for not knowing enough about the proposed demolition of #publichousing and being weary because allies usually have an alterior motive BUT over 3 years LLG stayed. She learned. She showed up. She did.

the cosplay folks seem to😍Sec8 but
"Voucher loss also leads to homelessness.
In a Vera Institute study of homeless families in NYC, researchers found that one-third of families entering homeless shelters had lost a Sec8 housing subsidy during the previous 5 yrs."

“Left-YIMBYism” is one of the funniest things I’ve seen people talk themselves into. Like yeah, I’m a socialist except in the case of housing where I believe in supply-side economics and deregulation. Let’s bulldoze some section 8 housing and sell it to developers

do "left YIMBYs" understand that people are taking profits from private development and using it to fund anti-socialist politics and policies?

As different @nycDSA caucuses put out final pitches for their slates, only @w2wdsa has a message centering local NYC working class residents. The rest are hyper-fixated on AOC running for president and don’t seem to give a damn about needs of NYers & needs of NYCDSA members.
