New York is grey on every map here. Why are our leaders incapable of passing even the most modest zoning reforms?

w that being said ai is just a natural extension of long-standing conditions that value wealth-building, instant gratification, efficiency, etc & de-value the idea of doing anything for its own sake without profit incentive. as I wrote abt here

Weekly maximum unemployment insurance will go up from $504 to $869 a week! This coupled with reducing the waiting period by a week for UI for striking workers are major wins for all workers Proud of the work @UAWRegion9A and @UAWregion9 did together to help win both of these

Hochul plans to cut the corporate tax rate — slashing state revenue by $1 billion/year, as NY faces looming federal cuts. Under-discussed in budget negotiations & of note in @NYFiscalPolicy's latest op-ed: https://t.co/1LGx5oDqRF

The New York State budget is being negotiated right now, but our elected leaders are failing to prepare for federal spending cuts. Instead, they want to compound the problem with $2 billion per year in new tax cuts. My op-ed with @EmMurphEis https://t.co/V86RiDaqOt

FPI’s research cited in today’s New York Times on how working families can’t afford to live in NYC: “When you have young children, there’s a lot of cost pressures all at once,” said Andrew Perry, a senior policy analyst. https://t.co/Cwetk1wAld

FPI’s Health Policy Director @MichaelKinnucan in the NYT today: Gutting Medicaid means attacking a program backed by a wide range of organizations — from the AARP to the American Hospital Association — that also enjoys broad public support. https://t.co/ySUVVf72rq

This latest report from the @NYFiscalPolicy highlights the urgency and importance of increasing funding for the Child Care Assistance Program. Without this funding, thousands of eligible families will not have access to child care. https://t.co/DqyLeRjCJp

One under-appreciated aspect of the tariffs is how we're basically going to get a repeat of the 2020 pandemic where the biggest companies get a lot bigger and the smaller get smaller (or just disappear).

I feel like people are keeping their ear to the ground on layoffs But I think this is more important

this is the worst tweet i've ever seen wtf

Why did you rob your constituents of affordable housing?

Folks refuse to admit that all of the rugpulling in every direction has a permanent cost attached to it. Like taking a negotiations class where you feel clever about anchoring and optionality, but never understand the concept of a repeated game

The problem with a lot of para-academics, deans and pundits is all they do all day is talk, mostly about things that are unverifiable or unverified. so they have a vested interest in the idea that talking is general intelligence *regardless of the correctness of the content*

@Ruth_Mensch My favorite genre of guy rn is "neocon so traumatized by the election he reverted back to his trotskyist roots"

Here's FPI's report on how to avoid a NYCHA budget crisis: https://t.co/VevOYNs3DC

NY policymakers need to be very conscious right now of 1) funding NYCHA, and 2) funding HAVP so that new yorkers on vouchers or in public housing do not all lose their housing over the next year. Maybe we can get some of these things in the budget???
