🚨 The NYC 2025 Voter Guide is back! 🚨

We’re excited to release our take on what's on our ballots—and the best choices to move NYC forward.

@yesonaffhousing.bsky.social Questions 2-5
✅ Yes on 6

Take a look and share widely! nyc2025.com
There were 78 fire fatalities in 2024, and 253 traffic deaths.

Former Fire Commissioner Laura Kavanagh is right when she says interagency accountability is the way to achieve Vision Zero. We all have a responsibility when it comes to street safety.

Dense housing 🤝 public transit🤝 lower emissions

@pewilliams.bsky.social is right: one of the most impactful climate actions @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social can take is building lots more homes in NYC.

ICYMI: Our post-election Substack covers what we’re loving, lamenting, and learning from Tuesday's election results.

@catherine-vaughan.bsky.social takes us through how the ballot questions demonstrate how popular building more housing is across the city—new council members take note!

There’s only a few more hours left to vote in this year’s election! Voting YES on the charter amendments will better our city. Here’s how 👇

New Yorkers—don’t forget to flip your ballot today! Voting YES on the charter amendments will help create more affordable housing, modernize our city, and increase voter turnout.

Happy Election Day! Want a more affordable NYC? Here’s what to vote for 👇
November 4, 2025 at 3:57 PM
New Yorkers, @jesskcoleman said it best - if you’re sick of a rigged housing market, flip you ballot and vote YES on props 2-6.

NYC will add benches to all bus stops by 2035. That’s something, but does the implementation have to be slower than our buses are? Let’s try to get the benches and the buses here faster.

🕸️Happy Halloween, NYC! 👻 With only four days left till Election Day, we wanted to share the tale of “A City Without Charter Reform.” Let this serve as a spooky reminder of what NYC could be if New Yorkers don’t vote YES on Questions 2-6!

The Interborough Express could be NYC’s biggest transit expansion in a century.

What’s more, over 70K new homes could be built less than a half mile from the IBX—a chance to build the connected, affordable city we deserve.

New York is breaking its own climate law.

We need much more ambitious action to roll out renewables, electrify our grid, and implement cap and invest if we’re going to catch up to the emissions reductions we promised—and need.
October 31, 2025 at 6:21 PM
We’re with @maragay.bsky.social: the mayoral race has been short on big ideas to confront the scale of our housing crisis.

Credit to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for treating affordability with the energy it demands, but he'll need to do more than freeze rents to deliver relief to all tenants.

With only a few more days of early voting to go, we wanted to go over some common misconceptions about the charter amendments on your ballot.
October 30, 2025 at 6:44 PM
Excellent @jacobinmag.bsky.social article about the charter amendments, demonstrating the progressive necessity of housing abundance.

Helping tenants requires building more—not privileging a land use process that preserves the status quo.
October 30, 2025 at 6:17 PM
It’s not education when it’s misinformation.

The City Council is (seemingly illegally) using your tax dollars to fight proposals that would make it easier to build affordable housing.

The Municipal Art Society has come out in support of
@YesOnAffHousing.bsky.social NYC props 2-4!!

The preservationist group says the proposals "represent a bold effort to address the urgent housing crisis and more equitably distribute housing citywide, in line with the Fair Housing Framework."

Election Day is one week away—and climate is on the ballot! How you vote will affect NYC’s climate future for years to come. Let’s dig in.
October 28, 2025 at 7:03 PM
The DSA and Staten Island Conservatives are in agreement—wow—and so are we: NYC needs universal daylighting.

Let’s bring Intro 1138 to a vote and make our streets safer for everyone.

A 10-year waitlist for senior housing.

26,000 applications for 84 units.

Older New Yorkers are being left with an impossible choice: live in squalor or leave the city they call home.

We need to do better—and that starts with building more affordable housing.
October 28, 2025 at 4:14 PM
In the 1920s, NYC built 730,000 homes.

A century later, we can’t even come close—and our vacancy rate is at a historic low.

The good news? We can do something about it.

Vote YES on the charter amendments to speed up affordable housing, and we can finally address this crisis.

After a great first weekend of early voting, we’re diving deeper into Question 6, which will endorse moving elections to higher-turnout even years
October 27, 2025 at 2:39 PM
Happy first day of Early Voting! Not only are we voting for the folks who will lead our city for the coming years, don’t forget to flip your ballot to vote YES on the charter amendments!
October 25, 2025 at 7:52 PM
With early voting starting tomorrow, let’s take a closer look at Question 5, amending the charter to create a single digital city map 👇

The Trump administration’s $450 million cuts to green energy in New York will result in fewer jobs, more pollution, and a halting of progress across the state.

Terrible.

This seven-street intersection in Chinatown has been an urban puzzle. Finally, the city is making moves to solve it.

This proposal by the DOT will make this chaotic area safer, greener, and more walkable—let’s do it.
