Admittedly, it is noble for AOC to focus on climate change. But she, like French President Emmanuel Macron, gave industry and the military a pass on climate destruction. Instead, she has decided to extract climate justice outcomes first from, you guessed it, public housing residents. As a result, she threatens to add to the suffering and misery amongst average people. AOC is blind to how her green ''New Deal'' plan makes NYCHA residents wait years for basic, but emergency, repairs, like upgrades to heating systems. Without emergency upgrades in heating, NYCHA tenants face another winter where up to 90 per cent. of residents will experience heat outages.

Fight For NYCHA is a collective of tenants, activists, artists, and advocates, who are providing technical support to NYCHA tenants to self-determine the future of public houisng in New York City. We oppose Mayor Bill de Blasio's plan to put 1/3 of NYCHA into the hands of private landlords. We reject Mayor de Blasio's proposal, because the money exists to save NYCHA. We just have to change our priorities. Learn more about our People's Budget to fully-fund NYCHA.

Progress New York : AOC's Green New Deal for Public Housing makes NYCHA tenants wait years for heat

Progress New York - Update

LETTER FROM NEW YORK

AOC's green New Deal for public housing ignores heat outages, Mayor's plan for demolition and RAD conversion, and makes NYCHA tenants wait years for repairs

Two weeks ago, U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY 14) unveiled a green "New Deal" plan to "invest" up to $180 billion over ten (10) years in America's public housing stock. In recent days, surrogates for U.S. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez have retaliated whenever critics have noted that the green "New Deal" plan ignores the current public health crises facing public housing residents, particularly those which result from a lack of sufficient heat during winter.

The uncertain and conditional time frame of U.S. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez's bill places NYCHA at risk of being gutted by the plan being put forth by Mayor Bill de Blasio (D-New York City), which calls for demolition, rezoning, RAD conversion, and other assets sales.

According to information obtained by Progress New York, community opposition to the Mayor's plan has been obstructed by the Movement School, a project of Organize for Justice, which, in turn, is the 501(c)(4) lobbying arm of the Justice Democrats, the latter being the political action committee of nye demokrater widely-credited with electing U.S. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez to Congress.

If U.S. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez ignores these conflicts, then she risks alienating public housing residents at a critical time in our Nation's governance.

Special Project Funding Raising Goal : $2,500

Progress New York has an opportunity to transfer some information and research to a nonprofit news service for a special project. Before the transfer can be made, some costs need to be recouped. Unfortunately, the nonprofit news service cannot pay for these costs. As a result, we must find a sponsor or to raise $2,500 before this transfer can be made. Please consider making a donation today toward this cost.

Progress New York began with a dream that an investigative news coöperative could publish journalism that was consequential. That an important peer views the work of Progress New York with respect means we have reached a milestone.

Any single sponsor committing to sponsoring the entire cost can call for more information : (347) 551-2299.

Please make a donation today.

The Donation page will be kept updated with the status of this fundraiser.

Fallout of Presser, Protest : Greg Russ heckled, tenants locked out of NYCHA Working Group meeting

FIGHT FOR NYCHA - UPDATES

NYCHA Tenants, Activists Held A Press Conference, Protesting the Lack of Democracy of, and the Exclusion of Many From, Mayor Bill de Blasio's NYCHA Working Group

Tenants and Activists Were Locked Out of Closed-Door, Secret Meeting in Violation of State's Open Meetings Law

In what could be a first in New York City, NYCHA tenants and activists heckled Greg Russ, the public housing authority chair.

NYCHA tenants and activists heckled Greg Russ, the new chair of the New York City Housing Authority, or NYCHA. The confrontation took place outside of PS 33 in Cheslea on Tuesday night after NYCHA tenants and activists from Fight For NYCHA, Holmes-Isaacs Coälition, and Justice For All Coälition had concluded their press conference, denouncing the Mayor Bill de Blasio's NYCHA Working Group.

VIDEO : NYCHA tenants, activists heckle Greg Russ as he tries to sneak into the rigged #WorkingGroup [YouTube]

Activists confront U.S. Rep. Jerry Nadler's corrupt aide, Robert Atterbury, and call for a primary against Assemblymember Dick Gottfried.

NYCHA tenants also renewed calls for Robert Atterbury to be fired by U.S. Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY 10). Activists allege that Atterbury violated New York State's open meetings' law when he told a Fight For NYCHA member to leave the first meeting of Mayor de Blasio's undemocratic NYCHA Working Group. Tenants and activists also jeered Assemblymember Richard Gottfried (D-New York City), when he tried to sneak into the second meeting of Mayor de Blasio's NYCHA Working Group.

VIDEO : NYCHA tenants, activists call for Robert Atterbury to be fired, for primary against Dick Gottfried [YouTube]

NYCHA tenants and activists were denied entry to the secret, closed-door second meeting of the Mayor's NYCHA Working Group.

NYCHA tenants and activists were denied entry to a public building (PS 33 in Cheslea), and, thus, they were not permitted to attend the proceedings of the second meeting of Mayor de Blasio's rigged and stacked NYCHA Working Group.

The media and public statements made by NYCHA tenants and activists were broadcast on a Facebook Live stream. Some of the speakers included La Keesha Taylor and Saundrea Coleman from the Holmes-Isaacs Coälition ; Stanely Morse from the Justice For All Coälition ; and Lindsey Boylan, a 2020 Democratic Party primary candidate, who is challenging U.S. Rep. Nadler.

Fight For NYCHA asserts that the NYCHA Working Group has sufficiently been revealed to be undemocratic and in violation of the State's open meetings law, and that its composition unfairly excludes tenants and stakeholders, particularly tenants from public housing developments that face RAD conversion, infill development, MIH rezoning, and air rights sales. What is more, Mayor de Blasio's undemocratic NYCHA Working Group has not publicly addressed questions of legality raised by a member of Fight For NYCHA at its first meeting. With your support, more information about these issues will be released as early as next week.

MEDIA ADVISORY : Press Conference and Protest of NYCHA Working Group

MEDIA ADVISORY

Contact : Marni Halasa, (917) 501-9444, team@mg.fightfornycha.org

NYCHA Tenants, Activists to Hold Press Conference, Raising Criticism of de Blasio's NYCHA Working Group

[NEW YORK, NY, Oct. 28] ---- NYCHA tenants and tenant activists will hold a press conference before the start of the second meeting of Mayor Bill de Blasio's NYCHA Working Group. This Working Group was formed to decide the demolition, RAD conversion, infill development, MIH rezoning, and air rights sale of NYCHA public housing. At least six (6) NYCHA public housing developments face some form of infill development or privatization in the near future, but tenants from only one (1) such housing development -- Fulton Houses -- got selected to this panel. They are joined by some tenants from Chelsea Houses and Elliott Houses. But many more tenants were excluded, including important stakeholders, like Fight For NYCHA. NYCHA faces a City-wide crisis, and Mayor de Blasio's response is to put 1/3 of NYCHA into the hands of private landlords. This is unacceptable. This panel should reflect a City-wide membership. Expected to speak at the press conference are representatives of Holmes-Isaacs Coälition, Justice for All Coälition, and Fight For NYCHA, as well as other NYCHA tenants.

DATE : Tuesday, 29-Oct-2019

TIME : 5:30 pm

PLACE : PS 33, 281 9th Ave. (Btwn. 26 and 27th Aves.), Manhattan

RSVP : Press Conference and Protest of NYCHA Working Group [Facebook]

BACKGROUND ON FIRST NYCHA WORKING GROUP MEETING

In order to get video of Deputy Mayor Vicki Been's presentation about NYCHA's future, a member of Fight For NYCHA had to risk arrest. Before NYPD Inspector Howard Redmond (the top cop, who reportedly covered up a car crash involving the mayor) and other NYPD officers showed up to menace the Fight For NYCHA member, U.S. Rep. Jerrold Nadler's aide, Robert Atterbury, made deceptive statements by materially misrepresenting the proceedings of the NYCHA Working Group as a secret meeting that was closed to the public. In New York State, Government meetings are open meetings. Yet, Mr. Atterbury repeatedly indicated that a meeting that would discuss the disposition of NYCHA public assets and City real property was not a public meeting and that, improbably, the NYCHA Working Group was not a "civic group." Under New York State penal code, obstructing Government administration is a class A misdemeanor in the second degree. See § 195.05.

What is more, Fight For NYCHA has discovered that Mayor de Blasio has instituted a gag rule, demanding that the discussions of the NYCHA Working Group remain secret. This is a violation of Government transparency. It also violates the First Amendment rights of tenants to be able to speak in informed discussions about their own future. The gag rule and the restrictions in attendance also violate the State's open meetings law.

Please join Fight For NYCHA in demanding that the NYCHA Working Group be opened up to NYCHA tenants and important stakeholders City-wide and that its proceedings be made public.

Anybody But CoJo

Popular will keeps getting subverted by a political lockstep that passes controversial City Council legislation that is underpinned by racism and austerity

[NEW YORK, NY, Oct. 17] ---- New York City is in a crisis. Tenants of the New York City Housing Authority, or NYCHA, have been living in inhumane conditions. A Federal investigation and numerous Court cases have revealed that NYCHA tenants live in apartments with mold, mildew, water leaks, lead paint, and insect and rodent infestations. News reports have exposed problems with lead in drinking water. It is estimated that NYCHA faces an unfunded capital improvement deficit of $32 billion. Over and over again, Elected Officials claim that the City has no money for NYCHA. That is a lie.

VISIT : Anybody But CoJo [Website]

At the same time when New York City Council Speaker Corey Johnson (D-Chelsea) is claiming that there is no money to fully-fund NYCHA, he has very easily found up to $11 billion to build four new jails. Reports have suggested that Council Speaker Johnson is so hell-bent on continuing the racist era of mass incarceration that he is offering lucrative taxpayer funding to Councilmembers in exchange for their votes. "In January, the state will outlaw cash bail for most people charged with misdemeanors and nonviolent felonies and will require prosecutors to provide evidence to the defense far earlier," according to a report published by the New York Times, arguably precluding the need for any, much less such an expansive, new jail system to replace Rikers Island, once it is scheduled to close.

A convergence of racism and austerity

Some critics of the four new jails plan have demanded that the $11 billion be earmarked, instead, as part of a joint Local and State Government plan to fully-fund NYCHA. But Council Speaker Johnson and others refuse to support any new Government funding proposals, even though new tax ideas are reasonable and not punitive. Some of these tax ideas are even legislation-ready. See, e.g., the People's Budget, as proposed by the group Fight For NYCHA.

When public housing, as we know it today, was being established, it largely excluded people of color until passage of the Fair Housing Act of 1968. Eventually, public housing not only became integrated, but the majority of tenants became people of color, a reflection of the historic and systemic divide in economic opportuniy, income, and wealth based on race. After the majority of public housing tenants became people of color, the Govenrment began a ssytemic divestiment of public housing, melding racism and austerity.

Now comes Council Speaker Johson, expressing a desire to continue the racist era of mass incarceration, while at the same time continuing the racist era of divestment from public housing.

The only outcome that Council Speaker Johnson appears to support is for the private sector to begin to take control of public housing, conditions that have already been exposed to lead to civil rights violations, rent increases, and higher eviction rates. The juxtaposition of Council Speaker Johnson's policiess on incarceration and housing reveals a "CoJo doctrine" of racism and austerity that we must reject. Since becoming leader of the Municipal legislature, Council Speaker Johnson has sought to continue the corporate Democratic Party agenda of neoliberalism in New York City, even in the face of rising calls for a true progressive future based on restorative economic and racial justice. For these and other reasons, to be explored in the near future, Anybody But CoJo announces its intention to oppose Council Speaker Johnson's declared 2021 candidacy in the New York City mayor's race.

Progress New York Update -- WBAI Interview About NYCHA

Progress New York - Update

NYCHA interview with Michael G. Haskins' WBAI show "Living in the City"

Progress New York staff member Louis Flores was interviewed by WBAI 99.5 FM news host Michael G. Haskins for the "Living in the City" news program. The subject of the interview was the situation facing the New York City Housing Authority, or NYCHA.

The interview featured two important revelations.

First, the questioning [at 18:00] whether the controversial handing-over of public housing to private landlords under the Federal program known as Rental Assistance Demonstration, or RAD, should be subjected to the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure, or ULURP process.

Second, when asked by Mr. Haskins to explain [at 21:00] why no official at NYCHA was held accountable for the scandals that have engulf the Municipal public housing authority, the Progress New York staff member replied that U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman, of New York's southern district, appeared to countenance corruption, given his Big Business approach to Government.

NYCHA Tenants, Activists to Hold "Stop The War On the Poor" Rally and March at Union Square Park on Sunday

NYCHA tenants, tenant activists, and civic leaders will hold a rally on Sunday at 1 pm at Union Square Park in Manhattan, followed by a march, demanding the immediate and full-funding of NYCHA. Officials are finally admitting that NYCHA tenants face a "national emergency," but officials still expect tenants to wait years for funding. That's not acceptable.

DATE : Sunday, 6-Oct-2019

TIME : 1 pm

PLACE : Union Square Park (South End), Manhattan

RSVP : Stop the War on the Poor [Facebook]

Government officials can immediately change tax policy to bail out banks, to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy or for corporations, or to subsidize speculative real estate development. But there's seemingly never enough money or urgency to pay for economic relief and economic justice ? This "war on the poor" will stop today. Speakers will discuss the People's Budget approach to raise the money to fully-fund NYCHA.

Delita Hooks, medical office employee who attacked political blogger Suzannah B. Troy, never held accountable

Dr. Andrew Fagelman

Delita Hooks is a medical office employee of Dr. Andrew Fagelman, who sees patients in the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan. According to police and Court records, Hooks attacked a patient visiting another doctor. The victim of the attack, Suzannah B. Troy, has been seeking justice for the attack for seven years.

After Troy had filed a police report about the assault, Hooks reportedly filed a cross complaint described as false by Troy. Troy has compared Hook's police report to be as fabricated as the one filed by Jussie Smollett, a network TV drama actor, who falsely reported being the target of an attack.

Troy attempted to report the false cross complaint filed by Hooks as a crime, but she was turned away by police in the First Precinct, including NYPD supervisor Sgt. Chen, who she recorded in secret audio and tweeted to or mentioned top NYPD brass, including the NYPD police commissioners from Raymond Kelly to William Bratton to James O'Neill.

For Smollett's part in filing a false police report, prosecutors in Cook County, Illinois, made a decision not to prosecute the filing of a false instrument with police, a decision that later triggered the appointment of a former U.S. Attorney to review prosecutorial handling of the Smollett case. No similar decision to review the Office of Manhattan District Attorney's handling of Hooks' filing of a false instrument with police has been made.

Violence Against Women : Donald Trump fan, Stephen Roth, is Dr. Andrew Fagelman's landlord

Dr. Andrew Fagelman

When political commentator Suzannah B. Troy sued Dr. Andrew Fagelman for damages from her attack by his employee in his office, she learned that he rented commercial space from Vornado Realty Trust.

Dr. Fagelman later allegedly tried to unbelievably shift liability over the attack to Vornado, because the attack took place in shared commercial space.

Vornado is controlled by Stephen Roth, who is a supporter of President Donald Trump, who has allegedly claimed he grabs women "by the pu$$y."

Roth has been described as a Trump business partner. Roth was an investor in the troubled office building owned by Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner and his father's real estate business, located at 666 Fifth Ave.

Troy has questioned whether Roth and Vornado are accepting or condoning of misogyny and violence against women, including on their own property.

Besides doing business with Trump and his family, Roth called real estate executive Sam Zell a “bald-headed chicken fucker,” according to a report published by The Real Deal.

Seven year anniversary of Dr. Andrew Fagelman employee assaulting patient in SoHo medical office

Dr. Andrew Fagelman

On Oct. 1, 2012, political commentator Suzannah B. Troy was attacked by an employee of the medical office of Dr. Andrew Fagelman.

The attacker, Delita Hooks, was documented approaching Troy to start the attack in a YouTube video that has been seen over 750,000 times.

No accountability

Hooks was never fired by her employer, nor was she arrested. And Dr. Fagelman has testified in a deposition that he takes Hooks to drug paries. Dr. Fagelman also reportedly has many patients, who are NYPD officers. Dr. Fagelman is allegedly a primary care doctor, and he published in the Journal of Urology an article about the "Efficacy, Safety, and Use of Viagra in Clinical Practice." Yet, Dr. Fagelman does not understand that patient safety. So, how can he be writing about Viagra safety ?

Because Dr. Fagelman has concentrated at least some of his practice on impotent men, could h e be expressing undiagnosed misogyny against women ?

Manhattan D.A.'s Office admitted crimes occurred, but no charges were pressed against Hooks

According to Troy, a senior Manhattan Assistant District Attorney, Joan Illuzi, informed her that the attack constituted or included a second-degree assault, menacing, and a false cross complaint. Troy attempted to report the false cross complaint filed by Hooks as a crime, but she was turned away by police in the First Precinct, including NYPD supervisor Sgt. Chen, who she recorded in secret audio and tweeted to or mentioned top NYPD brass, including the NYPD police commissioners from Raymond Kelly to William Bratton to James O'Neill.

According to Troy's allegations, Andrew Dwyer was the NYPD detective, who represented Hooks in the police investigation. Troy has accused Dwyer of committing crimes in the police investigation. After Det. Andrew Dwyer allegedly committed these crimes, he was promoted to the NYPD FBI Task Force.
