A non-essential construction worker has died from #COVID19 because @NYGovCuomo is putting profits over people by classifying all construction as "essential." @bradlander

@NYCMayor Just overnight 2 more sites with coronavirus on commercial sites. That means over a week of spread with hundreds of people. We hear you. Why don’t you hear us? 150,000 construction workers and families are not expendable. #StopConstruction #NewYorkTimes #nypost #nbc

I'm gonna #askMyMayor why he wasn't #stopconstruction. and these @NYCHA workers are risking their lives without gear.
So many “must show workers”, union and non, are forced to work without safety equipment. #askmymayor #nyccoronavirus.

Thank you for bringing attention to this! #StopConstruction As a construction worker, "I’m essential to the pocketbooks of rich contractors and essential for spreading the virus, but that’s about it.” @NYGovCuomo @NYCMayor @NYCSpeakerCoJo

NYC Construction workers CANNOT practice social distancing. This is how COVID-19 will spread. Most NYC construction sites are NOT essential. #stopconstruction #StopTheSpread #NotDying4WallStreet @NYGovCuomo @NYCMayor @NYCSpeakerCoJo
