• Trump Crisis Relief Fund
    This will keep the economy going. Landlords will be paid. Gas will be purchased. Banks will be paid. Stocks will still be bought and traded. Goods and services will still be purchased. The American workers will not be in financial ruin, which would lead to economic disaster and chaos for the entire nation.

  • COVID-19 Colorado Emergency Rent and debt forgiveness
    As a group, the working class of Colorado have been financially crippled by the critical and necessary measures put in place to slow the spread of COVID-19. Though the federal or state government may eventually provide relief, the immediate conservation of our limited financial resources is necessary for our own and our family's health and well being. Renters, lessors, banks and other relevant institutions can, as a class seek their own relief; the state and federal government is much more responsive and historically more likely to act on their behalf. We must protect our limited cash flow immediately.

  • Covid-19 Emergency Debt Moratorium
    As a group, the working class of the United States have been financially crippled by the critical and necessary measures put in place to slow the spread of COVID-19. And we all know it's going to get worse. Though the federal government may eventually provide relief, they have been regularly dropping the ball on not only mitigating the damage of this situation but on admitting there IS a situation. The immediate conservation of our limited financial resources is necessary for our own and our family's health and well-being. Banks and other relevant institutions can, as a class, seek their own relief; the federal government is much more responsive and historically more likely to act on their behalf. We must protect our limited cash flow immediately.

  • TELL MIAMI MAYOR FRANCIS X. SUAREZ: FREEZE RENT
    During the COVID-19 crisis, we all have a responsibility towards our communities to keep ourselves healthy and avoid situations that can spread the virus. As of March 17th, the state of Florida will close all bars, nightclubs and restaurants in order to help us uphold that responsibility. While this is a step in the right direction regarding public health, the effects of these sweeping business closures affect the livelihood of thousands of Florida residents that rely on front-of-house restaurant, club/bar work or tips to make ends meet. Without a plan in place to supplement the income of these workers, and with no guarantee that unemployment benefits will provide the relief people need in a city with one of the highest costs of living in the country, we demand a moratorium on rent collection NOW. Hard-working people are going to suffer at the expense of the greater good. While we don't deny the importance of instituting these closures, we would be ashamed and heartbroken to watch our government let people who rely on restaurant work, work in the entertainment industry (clubs/bars) face evictions, blows to their credit, or be backed into a corner financially through no fault of their own. As a full-time waitress in the nightlife industry this is my sole source of income. For so many of my friends and family in the industry, as well, tips are their MAIN source of income. Simply providing people with an unemployment payment or temporary paid leave at minimum wage would not be enough to cover their typical expenses. We need Miami and Florida as a whole to put a moratorium on rent NOW in order to preserve the livelihood of so many hardworking people both in the restaurant industry and in other affected industries during this time of crisis.

Though the federal or state government may eventually provide relief, the immediate conservation of our limited financial resources is necessary for our own and our family's health and well-being.

Rentors, Lessors, banks and other relevant institutions can, as a class seek their own relief; the state and federal government is much more responsive and historically more likely to act on their behalf.

  • Against More Paving on East Mountain Road South in Philipstown, NY
    Also against further paving are other locals and visitors to the mountain who appreciate walking or scenic driving on a dirt road along the northern edge of Fahnestock Park. We all admire our dirt roads and spend our money in town. We are concerned about the danger of more accidents from faster-driving on paved roads and the destruction of a cultural legacy of unpaved roads that brings tourists and investors to the Hudson Highlands. We very much hope you will respect the wishes of your constituents and do no more paving on East Mountain Road South. Thank you!

  • New York - support working families during coronavirus
    We cannot allow those in our community who have to work in this situation to suffer needlessly - perhaps they don't have anyone to watch their kids while school is closed, or they have to miss shifts to care for a loved one. In order to protect the health and housing security of our community, we call on Governor Cuomo and the NYS Legislature to act now so workers won't have to make that choice. Specifically, we call for a suspension of all rent, mortgage, and utility payments for at least one month to allow people to do what they need to in order to take care of themselves, their loved ones, and the community. Landlords also need to be allowed to take advantage of this, so that they can extend this to their renters. Choose to support our communities!

  • Governor Abbott: Close all bars & restaurants immediately and provide financial support to workers
    The COVID-19 coronavirus is putting our families at risk, and elective social distancing is not effective. Bars and restaurants continue to be filled with people, which puts everyone at risk. In fact, many carriers of the coronavirus are asymptomatic and do not even realize they are spreading the infection to others. Whether we are aware of it or not, we could be passing on the coronavirus to those that are most at-risk—older folks and people that are immuno-compromised. Dr. Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, has made an estimate that close to 1.7 million people could die from the coronavirus in the U.S. if we don’t do anything to get a handle on the spread of this dangerous virus, not to mention the overloading of our healthcare facilities. Individuals cannot carry the entire responsibility of mitigating community spread and flattening the curve of infection, the government must step in and do their part. Governor Abbott needs to do what other governors across the country have, and demand that all bars, restaurants, and non-essential gathering places be shut down and workers receive compensation for their lost wages. People’s lives and livelihoods are at stake, and we must do our part in protecting our communities from this public health crisis.
