Stop the privatization of NYCHA

The Issue

New York City Housing Authority residents are dealing with the greatest funding and management crisis yet leading horrific and life threatening conditions within NYCHA buildings. The decades of disinvestment and mismanagement in and by NYCHA became the preexisting condition for the higher incidences of covid19 deaths within NYCHA communities. Governor Kathy Hochul can help us. The Governor must prioritize NYCHA residents in the state budget. Keeping public housing public and not turned over to big banks and slumlords for profit. How many more families will have to bury loved ones to the negligence of the private entities? The tragedy in the Bronx would not have happened if heat was properly provided. Though not a NYCHA development that was the tragic fallout due to privatization.  That Let Gov Hochul know our lives matter. Keep public housing public. Save section 9.
