ONLINE: #PoliceFreeSchools Twitter Storm

Thursday, June 25th, join CPR member Girls for Gender Equity for a Twitter storm, for the only stated meeting of the New York City Council before they agree to a budget – join in on the tweeting spree to let City Council members know that young people deserve abundant resources, which is only possible with police-free schools. 

The deadline to reach a handshake agreement on the Fiscal Year 2021 budget is fast approaching, and we need council members to commit to divesting from the NYPD by at least $1 billion this fiscal year to invest in communities! Follow GGE on twitter @GGENYC for updates, like, and retweet their posts!
