LOCAL POLITICAL ISSUE: AFFORDABLE HOUSING ...or things that go bump in the late night of the last session of the current fiscal year

The rate of gentrification and the loss of rent regulated apartments in what was one called Greenwich Village and in Chelsea is frightening. Many a day I have stood in front of PENN SOUTH and tried to conjure up an affordable apt (living in a 6 floor walk up in the Village is nice ..but the knees are sending me a message) So this is GOOD NEWS, So Thank you Brad Hoylman ,,, 50 more years of affordable housing is a blessing indeed.

Angry at the corporations and billionaires that pay to lobby their way out of taxes while you pay your share? The richest 1% take home 25% of our nation's income - they are not paying their fair share into the public coffers. Corporations making vast profits pay no taxes. Put them on trial!!!

Join with fellow taxpaying citizens to put these corporations and billionaires on trial before our Judge of Civic Decency. COME - BE PART OF THIS PARTICIPATORY THEATRICAL MOCK TRIAL.

Join with hundreds of other tax paying citizens to charge corporations Bank of America, General Electric, Citibank and many others who paid zero taxes, as well as the billionaires with uncivic, immoral evasion of their public responsibility to pay their fair share of taxes. Charge them, along with the lobbyists they pay and the politicans they buy in this public court in the park. At the conclusion we will chain up the corporations, close up the corporate loopholes, take their tax dollars from their pockets and finally deliver a tax bill across the street to the Bank of America headquarters.

Don't Give Up .. we have a new plan to bring a hospital and a REAL Emergency room back . JOIN US APRIL 30 1 PM in front of old St Vincent's

DID YOU GET THAT SLICK HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM MAILING?

DON'T BE FOOLED by FAKE HOSPITAL and Dishonest Emergency Room mailer sent out by the Rudin family/Long Island Jewish Hospital. THERE WILL BE NO NEW HOSPITAL. THERE WILL NOT BE AN EMERGENCY ROOM FOR CRITICAL MEDICAL EMERGENCIES. The expensive mailing that showed up in my mailbox three hours before the Bankruptcy Judge awarded the Rudin family at fire sale price the St Vincent's property  for the development of 200-300 luxury condos, is full of LIES. There is no existing WEST SIDE COALITION FOR HEALTHCARE. The mailers made it up. Do mail it back and write in big bold letter NO . I WANT A HOSPITAL AND I NEED A TRAUMA I EMERGENCY ROOM

Do they really think that Greenwich Village people can't see through this slick and expensive and dishonest marketing tool ? Ha!

SEE YOU AT THE COALITION FOR A NEW VILLAGE HOSPITAL COMMUNITY RALLY on APRIL 30.
