If you’re in NYC, this is the place to be next Wednesday! #CareNotCriminalization #HousingNotHandcuffs #HousingIsAHumanRight #JusticeForJordanNeely

The #NYPD is $300 million over budget this year. Public safety hasn't improved, but @NYCMayor won’t reign in the overspending. Instead, he's cutting money from schools, libraries, and social services.
It's time to act! Join us at the #CareNotCriminalization March on May 24th.
