">Teamsters to Launch Historic Nationwide Strike Against Amazon
- Business
- 2 days ago
The Teamsters are poised to make history as they launch the largest strike against Amazon in U.S. history. Beginning at 6 a.m. EST on Thursday, December 19, the strike follows Amazon’s refusal to comply with the law and bargain with thousands of its workers who have organized with the Teamsters.
“If your package is delayed during the holidays, you can blame Amazon’s insatiable greed,” said Sean M. O’Brien, Teamsters General President. “We gave Amazon a clear deadline to come to the table and do right by our members. They ignored it. These greedy executives had every chance to show decency and respect for the people who make their obscene profits possible. Instead, they’ve pushed workers to the limit and now they’re paying the price. This strike is on them.”

">OpEd: Far Left "Progressives" Hurting New Yorkers, Literally
- Politics
- 5 days ago
New York City prides itself on being at the forefront of innovation and adaptability. However, when it comes to the regulation of motorized bikes, we are falling dangerously behind, and the consequences are piling up—literally and figuratively. Despite growing evidence of the hazards posed by these vehicles, some city politicians, like Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso, continue to oppose registering motorized bikes. Their resistance endangers public safety and overlooks the needs of the very communities they claim to represent.

">New Bill Aims to Revive Short-Term Rentals in NYC
- Politics
- 1 month ago
A recently introduced bill, Bill 1107, led by Council Members Farah Louis (Prime Sponsor), Adrienne Adams, Mercedes Narcisse, and Kevin Riley, proposes critical amendments to New York City’s stringent short-term rental laws. This legislation seeks to address the limitations imposed by Local Law 18 (LL18), which had effectively eliminated short-term rental opportunities for many homeowners in one- and two-family homes across the city.
