In the age of Trump, threats to academic freedom (usually made w/ disingenuous justifications) are increasingly common & dangerous; NY can't let that fly.  Here's our joint letter on Gov. Hochul’s efforts to interfere at CUNY, & the removal of a Palestinian studies job listing: bit.ly/CUNYLETTER

New Yorkers have demanded public safety - and that starts with cleaning up our own house. New Yorkers in our custody are our neighbors. Violence in prisons today begets trauma and violence in our communities tomorrow. We can put an end to it.

Suspensions and resignations won’t bring justice to Robert Brooks. Arrests must be made to show that brutality and abuse of power have no place in our NYS correctional system. BPHA Caucus is right; no more delays. #JusticeForRobertBrooks
