Recent win: A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to vehicles reported as abandoned to the department of sanitation: Council passes
  • 2025-06-30 · Vote · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
    Council orders swift removal of abandoned, derelict cars. Streets clear in 72 hours. No plates, no stickers, no excuses. Police and sanitation must act. Safer crossings for all who walk, ride, or wait.
  • 2025-05-01 · Vote · NYC Council – Legistar
    Council passes law. Taxis and for-hire cars must post bold warnings on rear doors. Riders face the message: look for cyclists before swinging the door. A move to cut dooring. City acts. Cyclists stay in the crosshairs.
  • 2025-04-23 · Leadership · Streetsblog NYC · ↑ helps grade
    A new floating freight dock opens at Hunts Point. One thousand trucks a month will vanish from Bronx streets. Boats and cargo bikes will haul food across the city. Less diesel. Fewer big rigs. The city shifts freight off the road, onto water.
  • 2025-04-10 · Vote · NYC Council – Legistar · ↑ helps grade
    Council passed a law forcing DOT to post sharp, regular updates on street safety projects. Progress on bike lanes, bus lanes, and signals must go public. No more hiding delays or cost overruns. The city must show its work.
