On May 9, Newark Mayor @rasjbaraka.bsky.social was arrested by federal agents. Across the country, the Trump admin is targeting local officials to bulldoze opposition to their agenda.

For decades, New York has made it almost impossible for upstate localities to enact rent control. Costly studies prohibited communities from opting in to this critical program.
Today, local officials are demanding reform. Read our letter 👇

Hey NY Dems - is there nothing else happening that the Democratic Party in New York should care about other than Mike Lawler? What the hell? That is all you seem to care about, and we have much bigger issues than 1 representative. GET IT TOGETHER and show some leadership! @governor.ny.gov

In 2024, LPNY members wrote to Governor Hochul demanding she reverse half a billion in cuts to clean water projects across the state.

We continue to concede ground in the face of an onslaught to our country and our democracy. This is why Democrats continue to lose elections. We are not the opposition party we think we are. For shame @schumer.senate.gov and especially the great disappointment that continues to be Fetterman!
