🧵 We were proud to endorse @delgadoforny.bsky.social because he took the time to listen to our members - older and disabled New Yorkers, family caregivers and home care workers, and to fight for a New York that provides health care and home care for all.
I’ve decided to end my campaign for Governor of New York. After much consideration, I’ve concluded that there simply is no viable path forward.

Delgado ran a campaign rooted in progressive values, raised more $$ than any primary Gov challenger, and had deep support from our members.

BdB had no choice; he was hostage to Cuomo's threat to impose austerity on NYC. But the endorsement of Cuomo by NY's Left party delayed progress for 4 more years.

NYC-DSA's TTR campaign is needed to get Hochul to raise taxes on the rich. (That's why I'm one of the campaign's field leads.)
But no TTR issue campaign will, by itself, succeed; the other necessary condition is a candidate who can convert popular will into primary votes: @delgadoforny.bsky.social.

You cannot claim to be on the side of labor if you sabotage a union strike.
The governor has repeatedly extended an executive order letting hospitals bring in visiting nurses, gutting the strike’s leverage.

Folks, not only is Hochul refusing to tax the rich, ignoring state climate law, failing to house the homeless in winter, and giving away state Medicaid $ to private equity; she's also helping the hospitals strike-break. Start saying the words "primary" and "Delgado," as in @delgadoforny.bsky.social.
In midtown, striking nurses are marching on Kathy Hochul’s office, calling out an emergency order she signed allowing traveling nurses to work in NY during the strike.
They say that move has prolonged the strike and is a handout to the hospital system.
