Join us on Mon for an onboarding meeting and Wed for a comms-specific one (link in bio)! As @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social’s overwhelming victory demonstrates, NY is the most susceptible it has ever been to socialist ideas. In order to address our affordability crisis, we must reimagine housing.

Listen to @loudsocialist.bsky.social explain what we mean by Social Housing! It exists all over the world and is a solution to NYC’s housing crisis. Join us in our fight for a better world! #housethefuture #greensocialhousing #socialhousing #therentistoodamnhigh #nycrent #nycapartments

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social has the right idea. 💡 Skyrocketing rents are forcing New Yorkers to leave the neighborhoods they love. The solution is obvious: freeze the rent. 🥶

First, sign the petition to freeze the rent: hj4a.org/RentFreezeInsta.

Next, join us to continue the fight! Link in bio

You shouldn’t have to be rich to live in the Hudson Valley.

Last night, Kingston residents called on the Common Council to support our campaign to build tens of thousands of permanently affordable, sustainable, union-built homes across the state!

Good luck to Academy Award nominees and social housing alums Timothée Chalamet and Colman Domingo!

Shout out to our Socialists in Office Emily Gallagher, Zohran Mamdani, Phara Souffrant Forrest, and Julia Salazar for organizing a special screening of Sing Sing!

When you’re not worried about making rent every month, you can focus on making your dreams come true — just like 2025 Academy Award nominees Colman Domingo and Timothée Chalamet.

What dreams would you pursue if rent wasn’t so high?

"The fact that the building trades & UFT have warmed to the housing bill 'reflects that organized labor sees us...passing policies & getting things done that can actually help their members & create jobs—not just better pay, but better working & living conditions.'"

Seattle is taking a big step forward with social housing in the US. Voter approval of Prop 1A—which looks pretty assured—will support $50m/year in funding for land acquisition & other needs for mixed-income, family-sized housing across the city.

Zohran is the green social housing candidate for mayor of NYC 🏢👷‍♀️🌱
Today I'm announcing a plan to unleash the public sector and build the housing we desperately need.

As Mayor, I will triple New York City's production of permanently affordable, union-built, rent-stabilized homes, constructing 200,000 new units over the next decade.

Everyone in NYC deserves housing, regardless of status or background! @council.nyc.gov should pair zoning changes to enable more housing supply with investments in deeply affordable housing and tenant protections to help alleviate the crisis for ALL New Yorkers.
A few thoughts on City of Yes as it advances in the Council.
