Early this morning, our city still plunged into darkness, I set off to walk the Brooklyn Bridge.

As the sun came up, we were joined by canvassers, labor leaders, elected officials, and working people — a movement to bring a new day to our city.

Tomorrow, we win it together.

"No longer should we think about our political process as settling for the lesser of two evils. We can demand a greater good.

And in doing so, we can make City Hall a place from which New Yorkers expect change, not failure."

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

"Our restaurants, cafes, mosques, universities, and libraries were ... the heart of our communities. But Israel has bombed all of Gaza's beloved institutions into dust. As our lives remain in limbo, we are rebuilding home in our minds—because memory is the only homeland that cannot be occupied."
“Gaza is home because our memories are etched into every street, & Gazans are the heartbeat of the city.”

Gaza once held our stories. Now we carry its memories, Taqwa Ahmed Al-Wawi vows. “[We will] breathe new life into her again.”
