It is one thing to be upset at your elected representatives, it is another thing entirely to threaten their lives. The threats made to @tiffany_caban and her staff are unacceptable, and ultimately punish the constituents who do need help and can’t access the office.
Today, the Council will hear testimony on the bill with supermajority support to end solitary confinement in New York City once and for all. Locking people away for weeks or months does not keep us safe. Torture by any name cannot stand, and this Council must lead the way.
NEW: Melania Brown, sister of the late Layleen Polanco, urges NYC to ban solitary confinement. "I promised my baby sister I would fight until my last breath to end solitary confinement and end the place where she took her last breath, and I will not stop." nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-ope…

Ban solitary confinement in New York City now
My baby sister, Layleen Polanco, died in solitary confinement on Rikers Island on June 7, 2019. On that day, my heart was ripped out of my chest. Layleen and I were supposed to grow old together. I…

Whether that’s the fault of @NYCMayor, DOE or the Council depends on who you ask, and it’s not entirely clear yet. But the system allows for a better flow of accurate information before votes are cast.
It would appear that there are downsides to rushing a budget deal that didn’t have to be done that early. Council members should be in full possession of information before voting on a $101B budget- arguably their biggest charter-mandated responsibility.
