NYC has a rich history of affordable "social housing," AKA housing that is for people, not profits. But the market and deregulation has driven the costs of these units up. Can the City Council do anything about it? @StevenWishnia digs in: https://t.co/c3jvwJZjJc

The City Council is considering a package of legislation to support building more—but would it do enough?

Always so nice when a media outlet thanks you for your work and then pays you weeks late like "Yes we appreciate you so much we're going to break employment law and put you out"

Yesterday the NYPD blamed a "gag order" related to litigation for not being able to show up to the City Council's oversight hearing on the SRG. Today, the attorneys involved in that litigation, including @NewYorkStateAG, said that there is no "gag order" https://t.co/P0Lu90cXu0

"The NYPD is lying—and frankly, not even doing a particularly good job at it."

Public teachers acting as a political force is a huge win for working class communities, but Chicago’s press is forever obsessed with demonizing the city’s educators in @CTULocal1

This is the proper framing for what's going on with New York City, its public servants, and its police
The NYPD's absence made the hearing less about the SRG and more about the central question that faces this City Council: What can they actually do to compel the NYPD to act like every other City agency that is accountable to them? Not much, it seems! https://t.co/PadRsfo5jK

Is Earth Wind & Fire for R&B fans what Steely Dan is for rock fans? I love them both and I think I'm on to something

Interesting how they used that pic from the 2021 LA Times article about me to depict rise of crime on transit… 🤔 In that pic, I was talking to a rider who had trouble navigating the LA Metro system!
