Anything you can give is greatly appreciated
Thank you 🙏🏼

Rent stabilization is good.
In an unprecedented move, Austria is regulating rents for the entire country.

All apartments that already have government regulation have seen a total rent freeze this year.

All formerly unregulated units are also getting rent stabilization to limit landlord rent hikes.

We're excited to share that we have some additional donation drop box locations!

As always, we extend our deepest gratitude to the businesses that open their doors to the public on our behalf to collect much needed donations for our communities. Thank you so much, we can't do this work without you!
It's a sign that things are really bad tbh, we only get attention when something is going wrong

You should care about Jamaica and Sudan even if you don't know anyone there and the news isn't covering it. The anti-Blackness embedded in folks' lack of empathy is gross.

This is an especially worrying statement when facial recognition can be inaccurate, biased, and generally make mistakes. Basing whether someone should be in the US or not, and ignoring physical media like a birth certificate, is ripe for disaster bsky.app/profile/jose...
New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

A lot of places in the USA only have food banks operated by faith based organizations. And they only serve members of their congregation. So, lie. Do whatever you gotta do!

It’s crunch time for the more than 75,000 New Hampshire residents who rely on SNAP benefits to put food on the table, as the federal shutdown is likely to continue into November and the government refuses to release a reserve fund that would help keep benefits going for two or three weeks.

However bad you think the police surveillance state has become, it’s worse. Here a tiny police force has blanketed a tiny town in a network of cameras to track every person and vehicle that goes through. Which leads a cop to this woman’s house to lie to her to coax a false confession.

One in eight Americans relying on SNAP is a wild number. We are not good at being a livable country, friends.

Today, I'm out canvassing with Jess Spillers in her campaign for mayor and all of the down ballot candidates here in Manchester.
The federal and state government has passed the buck to local officials.
We need strong leaders, like Jess, now.

Y’all, Spotify’s stock price sunk by 5% in 1 day. YOU did this by spreading the word to boycott them for running ICE ads.

These billionaires only speak one language—money—so let’s keep up the pressure. Tell everyone you know to cancel their Spotify subscriptions. Send them to BoycottSpotify.com.
