The NYC Comptroller has formally recommended to 3 public pension boards that they search for a replacement to BlackRock to manage their $42 billion in pensioners' savings because BlackRock is failing on investing for a safe and healthy future. We love to see it!
🚨BREAKING: @bradlander.bsky.social today announced recommendations to end $42+ billion in investment with BlackRock, as it leads funding of fossil fuels.

It’s now time for our pension trustees to follow Comptroller Brad Lander and deliver pension funds that don’t invest in our city’s destruction.

Billionaires have turned our home into their playground, while working families can barely afford rent.

We’re coming after the billionaires’ agenda first. We’re marching peacefully through their neighborhoods to demand housing, healthcare, and schools for all.

NYCC is one of the premier organizing groups of low-income people of color in this country. Period. Their role IS to push those in power, even make them feel uncomfortable, to create change for their members. 🧵 1/2
In response to Comptroller Lander’s post titled “NYCC and BlackRock and Brad, on my!”

We began organizing on climate change in 2012 after Hurricane Sandy, when our members were trapped in their buildings without power, without access to food or medical care for weeks on end. 🧵

BREAKING: Pipeline workers in near Houston left traffic open in a gas plume’s path—including a SCHOOL BUS. But when filmed from a safe distance, they tried to run the cameraman off by calling the police. Why? They don’t want you to see the truth. 🧵👇🏽
