Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 10/12/2025Fascinated at how news coverage in #roc is reticent to mention how Joe Morelle’s son’s lobbying of Monroe County for AirBNB included sending MC the first draft of opt-out legislation, that they sat on for 200 days before pushing it through at the last minute. 072 7
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Not the outcome I’d hoped for in the Democratic Primary- but we had some hella victories along the way. You know our Democracy is in danger, if you want to put your skills to work in an organized fashion - let’s stay connected, kellycheatle.com/peoplepower 081 8
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 23/06/2025Your last day to vote in the #roc Democratic primary is Tuesday June 24 (tomorrow!) I know you’re tired. I know it’s going to be hot.

Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 04/05/2025I need to get better about timely cross posting. This was from earlier this week, everything is just moving so fast… 292 9
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 17/04/2025“Avelo needs to hear loud and clear, kidnapping our neighbors does not fly with us, so we will not fly with you,” (thanks @rachbarnhart.com for the invite to speak) 161 6
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 09/04/2025It’s time to choose courage over comfort. We cannot allow the Federal government to disappear our neighbors period. #roc #deportation 292 9

If you’re a registered Dem in #roc swing through and we’ll say hi and collect your signature. Easy peasy- We need to collect over 1k to make sure we get on the ballot. Thanks for helping 174 7
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 17/02/2025It’s just about time to start collecting signatures to make sure we get on the ballot. #ROC, You can help make that happen: VoteforKelly.com/support has links to volunteer & donate. 050 5
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 04/02/2025Ok #roc- campaign kickoff today at 10 at the Hungerford! Learn more, volunteer and donate at www.Voteforkelly.Com 052 5
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 01/02/2025Who wants a “fill in the blank” #letterpress poster? Come to the Hungerford on #firstfriday here in #roc and we’ll have them available to raise funds for my City Council campaign! Suggested donation $35 each, 2 for $50 (no one turned away for lack of funds) #worthfightingfor 041 4
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 30/01/2025The Hungerford was once home to a thriving community of Artists and small business owners- until it was bought by a developer who wanted to flip it into luxury lofts. He’s torn it apart and there’s no plan to put it back together. 😡 Come join us #roc this #FirstFriday for a reunion 051 5
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 20/01/2025If you are looking for a book recommendation for times like these, I highly recommend this one, “Hope in the Dark” by Rebecca Solnit. Mourn, but do not despair. Hold on to hope- if only to keep injustice from prevailing. 021 2
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 12/01/2025Amazing!!! Thank you Gil!! We had a bunch of folks at the studio today helping to stuff envelopes- got em all done super fast! Amazing what happens when everyone pitches in a little! 131 3
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 11/01/2025The next few years are going to be challenging at the Federal level. Local races will be crucial to keeping things running in #roc, & making sure needs are being met in your neighborhood. Excited to see we’re almost 75% to my #fundraising goal! Help get me hit my goal 🧵 www.voteforkelly.com/donate 130 3
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 11/01/2025DONOR MATCH ALERT: we’re a scrappy & talented bunch, but to run a successful City Council campaign in less than 6 months we’ll need to fund the supplies & software tools we’ll use to reach #roc voters. Got a matching donor for up to $2k, but gotta hit my goal to get it www.voteforkelly.com/donate 361 6
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Anybody in #roc wanna come hang out with some nice folks and stuff some envelopes with me? (There’s a lot of post-holiday ick at the moment, so If you’re under the weather or around folks who are- we’ll have plenty of time to gather later in the year. I’ve got nice breathable kn95s for folks 🩷) 042 4

Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 21/12/2024Speaking of the impacts of the housing crisis in #roc Hats off to council members Lupien, Smith & Martin for demanding change. #stopthesweeps 050 5
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 20/12/2024The question that has been asked most often in this thread is why this commission was not given to a Rochester-based firm. To create works of scale, and even as requested in this RFP, you have to have the capacity and a body of work to support it. 🧵 242 4
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 19/12/2024Thanks @blkamanda.bsky.social for starting me off on the right foot! 060 6
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 14/12/2024#roc #speaktocouncil this week once again this week pushing for the passage of #goodcause eviction protection. It’s been 7 months. This could have even passed last month- they had the votes! As Noam said, we need “action not promises” (Thank you all for your persistence- you’re doing great work!) 140 4
Kelly Cheatle @kellycheatle.bsky.social · 11/12/2024I remember growing up, my grandparent’s home would be filled with folks on Sunday afternoons til late, drinking coffee, sharing and connecting with one another. Hosting a little event at the studio next Wednesday evening, would love for you to join in on the conversation. Kellycheatle.com to RSVP 063 6
