RALLY TO PROTECT FREE SPEECH & SAFETY
The People’s Plan NYC
🚨 ACTION ALERT 🚨
The City just passed 2 bills that could restrict where you’re allowed to protest—or even gather. But we still have a chance to defeat one of them.
At a time when Trump and the far right are attacking dissent and criminalizing protest across the country, NYC should be protecting our rights—not rolling them back.
Intro 175-B would let the NYPD set up “police perimeters” around schools and broadly defined “educational” sites—giving them more sweeping power to crack down on protests, limit gatherings, and expand police presence.
That’s not safety. That’s censorship.
We know how this plays out: more discretion for NYPD, less space for New Yorkers to speak out—especially for Black, Brown, immigrant, LGBTQ people, Muslim, Jewish, and young people.
Silencing protest doesn’t make us safer.
It makes it harder to hold power accountable and organize in moments when resistance matters most.
Now the fight isn’t over:
đźš« We need Mayor Mamdani to veto Int-0175B
đźš« And we need City Council Members to sustain that veto and defeat the bill
