It’s a no-brainer to move our local elections to even years. It’ll save money and increase voter turnout. Grateful to my Council Member @cmcrystalhudson.bsky.social for advocating for this critical reform. citizensunion.org/portfolio-it...

From supporting right to counsel in housing court to congestion pricing, @marklevinenyc.bsky.social has always been a forceful and efficient advocate for New Yorkers' access to affordable housing. I'm hopeful he can do even bigger and better things as NYC's next comptroller!

Back in August, I wrote a post about where the then-mayoral candidates stood on charter schools. nycpolitics101.substack.com/p/where-do-t... A lot has changed since then. But what remains true is that your voice matters to mayoral candidates, and it’s still not hard to get their ear right now.
