People are living longer, earning less and their quality of life is declining. The dream of retirement isn’t something many seniors can realize.
#NY3 has over 155,000 adults over the age of 65. The problems they face are policy choices we can correct. Here are some ways how:
🧵⬇️
Over 60% of seniors depend on Social Security for most of their income and one-third rely on it for virtually all of it.

Without Social Security, the poverty rate of seniors would be nearly 41%. We must protect and expand it.
⬇️
The average adult over 65 receives a social security check of $1,437.55 per month. Unfortunately, the average expenses of an adult 65 and older is $4,008.83.

A cause of this problem? Right now, a billionaire pays as much into social security as someone who is middle class.

By the looks of it, the next Representative for #NY3 will need a boat to serve all constituents.

Below is my statement on the alleged new congressional maps for #NY3 ⬇️
“By the looks of it, the next Representative for New York’s Third Congressional District will need a boat to cross the Long Island Sound to serve all constituents.

“We cannot stay silent as we watch the state legislature float a map that extreme gerrymanders our district... ⬇️
The new proposal would take our district from currently containing three counties to soon containing five, including just slivers from the Bronx and Westchester that are separated from the rest by the Long Island Sound. ... ⬇️

We must protect voting rights to secure our elections, but our democracy will always be under attack as long as corporations are allowed to buy the people who were elected to represent us.

To protect democracy, we must end the corruption.
🧵⬇️
Nothing that ever helped working families started with a corporate lobbyist cutting a check to a member of Congress.

If you want to see why a problem isn't being fixed, just follow the money back to the people profiting from it remaining broken.
⬇️
Between January 1st and September 30th 2021, lobbyists spent over $2.74 billion buying the votes of members of Congress, spreading propaganda and influencing elections.

This corruption has attacked our rights, rigged our courts and denied us real solutions.

A good portion of our country is melting today, so now is as good of time as ever to bust a few #GreenNewDeal myths.

🧵1/ Let's jump in:
First off, implementing the #GreenNewDeal now will never, ever, be more expensive than the cost of dealing with the repercussions of our climate crisis down the road. 2/
Because the #GreenNewDeal was just a resolution, there was no cost associated with it. The rumor of a $600-700k per household tax burden was created, based on nothing, by a Republican think tank. 3/

We assume NY is progressive because it's Blue, but we're represented by Reps that oppose progressive policies that are overwhelmingly supported. ( @DataProgress )

🌎 #GreenNewDeal 64%-20%
🏥 #MedicareForAll 59%-24%
🏠 #HomesGuarantee 62%-21%

With the exception of @AOC, NY Reps survive by their corporate donors pumping $millions into their campaigns to push policies benefiting the super-rich at the expense of hard working NYers.

💰That's why 70% of NYers support corruption reforms.

We need to break the false narratives from corporate-funded think tanks & politicians that the solutions we need are "impractical," when they are absolutely feasible, necessary & popular. They are prioritizing donations over the wellbeing of people.
