For our May community meeting, we focused on education and discussion around the growing threat of data centers entering our communities alongside our friends at Clean Air Coalition! We also shared updates on what PUSH has been working on as an organization, including a presentation on branding. To close out the meeting, we tried something new with a fun dance break to help everyone recharge and reflect after a full and engaging discussion.

Stay tuned for updates on our June meeting!

Housing is a human right, not a luxury. New Yorkers deserve safe, stable, and affordable homes. Call your legislators and demand action because we can’t keep letting working families get priced out while rents continue to rise.

Our voices matter, but only if we use them!

We can’t drink data.

In Tonawanda, we joined community members in calling for a moratorium on new data center development in New York State. Our communities, water, and environment must be protected. We cannot put corporate expansion over public health and natural resources.

New York must come first.

We want to give a special shoutout to New York State Senator April Baskin

During our recent trip to Albany, we had the chance to briefly meet with Senator Baskin and discuss the REST Act, as well as what meaningful support and leadership looks like in action!

We appreciate her time, engagement, and continued support of the REST Act and the communities it serves.
