$4M is available and you can follow this link to apply for emergency rental assistance if you are behind on your rent and concerned about eventually being evicted. There are as many as 30,000 of us in Rochester who are behind on the rent. You are not alone and this is not your fault. Four times as many people are at risk of being displaced then the number of people who were displaced during the Great Depression. Let that sink in and then hurry to apply because $4M will go very fast.

"It eerily echoes Floyd’s deaththe officers ignore Prude’s cries for help and continue to kneel on him as he appears to stop breathing. Local advocates are asking how what police called a mental hygiene arrest turned deadly."

Tax billionaires, fund our schools.

With evictions, budget cuts, and an uncertain future looming for Rochesterians - we reject more funds being diverted from critical resources to create more police presence in our neighborhoods.

"Leftist organizations like the Working Families Party and New York City branch of the Democratic Socialists of America are piling up wins in the June primaries."

It certainly was a bad night for establishment democrats in Monroe County - but a great night for WFP candidates who bring progressive voices to the fore and demand a future that works for all of us! Huge congratulations to Sarah Clark for Assembly Demond Meeks for NYS Assembly: 137th District Assemblymember Harry Bronson Monroe County Clerk Jamie Romeo Kim Smith for State Senate (in Monroe) and Jeremy Cooney on your incredible wins running on Working Families Party values.

"This emphasis on incumbency and seniority...[is] a way of doing business that comes at the expense of bettering the lives of Black folks."

Join tonight's Welcome Gathering with special guest Mondaire Jones!
