History is repeating itself 1920s - Pandemic (influenza) - Stock market crash 2020s - Pandemic (#COVID19) - Stock market crash Only this time we can’t make the same mistakes of the past. We can’t wait until the 30s for a New Deal. We need a #GreenNewDeal & #PeoplesBailout now
#WhenCoronaVirusIsOver we will need to work incredibly hard to protect people from the #climatecrisis which will bring far more pain & destruction than we're seeing right now with #covid19. We are not going back to normal, because normal was never there.

Shell says it literally can't stop itself from approving 35 new oil and gas projects--we have 'no choice but to invest in oil.' So we have no choice but to try and stop them. reuters.com/article/us-she…
I am glad to be home in Burlington to rest for a little bit. I want to thank all of you for your well wishes, love, and support over the week. I am recovering well and feeling much better. I am more determined than ever to fight alongside you to make health care a human right.
Why do working people of diverse political beliefs want real change? Because this economy ain’t fair. Between 1989 and 2018, top 1% increased its net worth by $21T. The bottom 50% saw its net worth drop by $900B. peoplespolicyproject.org/2019/06/14/top…
More than 1 million in the tri-state region are facing flood risk today. This risk will only grow. We need to take bold action to prepare for the risks of climate change, sea level rise, and increased coastal storms. #OurCoastOurFuture
Inspiring words from @AOC-- “Nothing to fear except inaction. The only thing we should be scared of is our future if we do nothing. We have to be bold and audacious and ambitious as possible.” coloradohometownweekly.com/2019/09/21/ale…

We received a lot of feedback from our original voter-guide rollout on Saturday. Here's a thread explaining the updates we made: x.com/sunrisemvmtnyc…
Sunrise NYC & partners are committed to defunding police & dismantling the carceral state. We regretfully did not do our due diligence for NY6 & AD82, and apologize for this oversight & resulting confusion. Thanks to everyone in our movement who spoke up & helped us reconsider.
The surest way to make your voice heard is to request your absentee ballot (nycabsentee.com) by this Tues, June 16th, and GOTV on or by June 23rd (ELECTION DAY!). We hope you appreciate the People’s Voter Guide, and plz RT & share w/ ur NYC friends to get the word out :)
That means you! We need your help if this movement is to succeed. You can join Sunrise (sunrise-nyc.org/get-involved) or email [email protected] to contribute to this effort, provide feedback, or otherwise get involved.
As this was Sunrise NYC’s first stab at a voter guide, we strove for perfection but also knew it’d kickstart a valuable learning process. We want to work with our partners in the future to create a better, more collaborative and robust People’s Voter Guide for NYC.
NOTE: The guide’s recommendations are NOT endorsements. We’ve endorsed 16 incredible candidates (learn more & sign up to phonebank for them @ sunrise-nyc.org/endorsements). This guide contains our *recommendations* for 40+ races.
and (4) considered whether the incumbent has been moving left on key issues/is a willing partner. Using this methodology, we arrived at candidates that we saw as the best option for progressive voters, even if we weren’t excited enough to endorse them.
To make our recommendations, we (1) consulted 18 progressive groups’ public endorsements, (2) weighed candidates’ platforms and track records, (3) studied each race’s complexities (like possibility of splitting the progressive vote)...
Yet for many progressive NYC voters, it’s hard to identify the best candidates because they all claim to be progressive. The People’s Voter Guide aims to fill this gap. As @ZephyrTeachout points out, the guide goes “past the ‘endorse or be silent’ model”. bit.ly/3fiE3qW
Sunrise NYC created the People’s Voter Guide because we deeply believe that the more we engage with our political system—especially at the local and state levels—the more power we have to advance climate justice & the progressive agenda.
**We retract our rec of Egidio Sementilli & do not offer a rec in AD82** Thanks followers for alerting us: Sementelli called for return of stop-and-frisk and opposed homeless shelters & treatment clinics.
**We retract Grace Meng & instead recommend @MelforProgress in NY6** While Meng’s been a willing partner, it’s unacceptable that she’s the only NYC Dem who voted yes on Thin Blue Line Act and other offensive and dangerous pro-police legislation. See @ACLU bit.ly/3hvO5H5
