Today we stood with our allies to demand Housing NOW! We need real solutions not criminalization. We are united in our opposition to devastating homeless sweeps, the new NYPD quality of life policing, involuntary commitments, shelter sanctions, and federal cuts.

RT @JeanmarieEvelly: "Why wouldn’t you help someone who’s getting evicted stay in their place?" said Diana Ramos, a CityFHEPs voucher holde….

Today’s ruling is a well-deserved win for homeless NYers who fought for the CityFHEPS Laws. It’s been 2 years since they passed, and thousands have been evicted and have remained stuck in shelters because of @NYCMayor . It's time for him to reverse course before more harm is done

If you plan to attend please register here: Let us know if you have any questions! Hope to see you all on the 18th!.

The event will be hybrid and simultaneous interpretation Spanish/English will be provided (in person and on zoom). It will be a great opportunity to learn more about what is happening and what actions we can collectively take to fight back these cuts.

The Safety Net Activists and Safety Net Project are putting together a second town hall from the series "Stop The Cuts!". Next Wednesday we will talk about the federal cuts to the housing programs (Section 8, NYCHA - Section 9, EHV etc.).

The Bronx is the epicenter of NYC’s housing crisis. 8 of the 10 highest-risk districts are located in the Bronx. And nearly every Bronx community ranks in the top 30 for housing threats citywide. It’s time for the NYC Council to fully fund #CHPS at $4.95M in FY26!

But the fight is not over! Right now the budget bill proposal is in Senate and than it will have to be passed again by the House. Follow Safety Net Project for the updates of upcoming actions to stop these cuts!.

Congress plans to cut SNAP by $300 billion over the next 10 years and Medicaid by $800 billion to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest and pay for military expansion, border "security", ICE etc.

The proposal passed by one vote and Malliotakis, as the only Republican House Representative in NYC, did nothing to protect her constituents. If this reconciliation budget bill passes it will have devastating impact on Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, Section 8 and NYCHA recipients.

The action organized by our partners: Metro New York Health Care for All, Citizen Action! NY, Make The Road and others, was to protest the passing of slashing reconciliation budget bill proposal by House of Representatives on May 22nd.

Last Thursday, on May 29th, Diana Ramos represented Safety Net Activist group at the action in front of Nicole Malliotakis' office in Bay Ridge.

Thank you @protctdemocracy and @studentlegalnet for your work in filing this case. The USDA’s illegal overreach must be stopped.

2/3: It’s hard enough for SNAP recipients to provide for themselves and their families, especially with prices rising and cuts looming. Now they have to worry about their private data being put into DOGE and Trump's massive federal surveillance database without their consent.

1/3: Last week, Diana Ramos, a member of the Safety Net Activists, joined other SNAP recipients, @EPICprivacy and @MAZONusa, in suing the USDA for their illegal demands for states to turn over personal information about millions of SNAP recipients.

Join us to provide testimony as we share our priorities at the General Welfare Executive Budget Hearing on Friday, May 16 2025 at 10am. Show up and speak up for CityFHEPS!

How? Expand CityFHEPS as an eviction prevention tool, fix administrative barriers causing unnecessary delays, and reverse proposed rent hikes for CityFHEPS voucher holders with earned income.

As part of the Homes Can't Wait Coalition, we urge @NYCMayor and the @NYCCouncil to invest in and expand access to CityFHEPS in this year's budget.
