    Assemblywoman Winter 2019 Crystal D. Peoples-Stokes Community News Assemblywoman Peoples-Stokes just began a very successful legislative session in Albany and is eager to continue her work back home in the district. Dear Friends and Neighbors, Every winter we are faced with the challenge of battling “Old Man Winter.” While sometimes we can be overwhelmed by snow and freezing temperatures we always make it through to warmer, better days. The same can be said of the State Legislature. For years our progressive legislation was bottlenecked by a Senate Majority that had a different philosophy. Now with a clear majority, for the first time in nearly a decade, in control of the Senate and the Assembly, I can say, like spring follows winter, brighter days are ahead. For the first time in New York State history, both houses will be led by two African Americans– Andrea Stewart-Cousins was elected to lead the new Senate Majority and the Assembly continues to be led by Speaker Carl Heastie. I recently had the honor and privilege of being appointed as Majority Leader of the Assembly by the Speaker, becoming the first woman and minority to ever hold the position in our state’s 242 year history. I’m proud to say the start to the 2019 legislative session has put forth one of the most progressive agendas in 30 years. In the first month alone we’ve managed to pass bills aimed at protecting New Yorkers from gun violence, protecting women’s reproductive rights, as well as giving the childhood sexual abuse survivors a chance to have their day in court.

  • OAG Hearing on Interactions Between NYPD and the General Public Submitted Written Testimony
    OAG Hearing on Interactions Between NYPD and the General Public Submitted Written Testimony Tahanie Aboushi | New York, New York I am counsel for Dounya Zayer, the protestor who was violently shoved by officer D’Andraia and observed by Commander Edelman. I would like to appear with Dounya to testify at this hearing and I will submit written testimony at a later time but well before the June 15th deadline. Thank you. Marissa Abrahams | South Beach Psychiatric Center | Brooklyn, New York As a nurse, it has been disturbing to see first-hand how few NYPD officers (present en masse at ALL peaceful protests) are wearing the face masks that we know are preventing the spread of COVID-19. Demonstrators are taking this extremely seriously and I saw NYPD literally laugh in the face of a protester who asked why they do not. It is negligent and a blatant provocation -especially in the context of the over-policing of Black and Latinx communities for social distancing violations. The complete disregard of the NYPD for the safety of the people they purportedly protect and serve, the active attacks with tear gas and pepper spray in the midst of a respiratory pandemic, is appalling and unacceptable. Aaron Abrams | Brooklyn, New York I will try to keep these testimonies as precise as possible since I know your office likely has hundreds, if not thousands to go through. Three separate occasions highlighted below: First Incident - May 30th - Brooklyn - peaceful protestors were walking from Prospect Park through the streets early in the day. At one point, police stopped to block the street and asked that we back up.

  • Community Policing Strategies for the Buffalo Police Department……19 I
    1 2 INTRODUCTION: JUSTICE AND OPPORTUNITY As the nation strives to improve police-community relations, safeguard the lives of officers and residents, and reduce crime while respecting civil liberties, voices around the country – from President Obama to ordinary citizens – are calling for more community policing. The Buffalo Police Department (BPD) has taken important steps toward embracing community policing, such as hiring community police officers, providing all officers with some community policing training, working collaboratively with community groups like Buffalo Peacemakers, improving language access for refugees and immigrants, and creating a scholarship program to diversify its recruits. Drawing on examples from across the country, this report explores a wide variety of ways the BPD can build on this momentum and expand community policing in Buffalo. This report was created by the Partnership for the Public Good (PPG). PPG is a community- based think tank that does research, advocacy, and civic engagement for over 200 community organizations in Western New York. Each year, PPG’s partners vote on a Community Agenda – their top ten policy priorities for building a better Buffalo. In each of the past two years, PPG’s partners have prioritized the expansion of community policing in Buffalo. This report was created for the Justice and Opportunity Table of Open Buffalo. Open Buffalo is a community movement for social and economic justice. The Justice and Opportunity Table is a coalition of groups and individuals with a goal of reducing the overall rates of – and racial disparities within – arrests and incarceration. The Table seeks an improved relationship between police and community: a relationship that is built on respect, trust, confidence, oversight, and mutual benefit, and that better enables police to protect and serve communities of color in Erie County.

  • A Coalition to Protect and Grow National Service
    A Coalition to Protect and Grow National Service Membership Overview About Voices for National Service PARTNERING TO PROTECT AND EXPAND NATIONAL SERVICE Voices for National Service is a coalition of national, state and local service organizations working together to build bipartisan support for national service, develop policies to expand and strengthen service opportunities for all Americans, and to ensure a robust federal investment in the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). Voices for National Service was founded in 2003 in the wake of a successful campaign to save AmeriCorps from sudden and significant proposed cuts. The national service field organized and launched a successful “Save AmeriCorps” campaign that ultimately restored--and in fact increased--federal funding for CNCS and AmeriCorps within one year. Following the successful 2003 Save AmeriCorps campaign, the national service community established Voices for National Service, a permanent field-based coalition dedicated to protecting and growing the federal investment in national service. City Year serves as the organizational and operational host of Voices for National Service and the coalition’s work is guided by a Steering Committee of CEOs of service organizations and leaders of state service commissions. The work of Voices for National Service is made possible through membership dues, philanthropic grants and gifts, and annual support from co- chairs and members of Voices for National Service’s Business Council and Champions Circle.

  • Institute Expands Internship Opportunities Welcome to the Institute of Politics at Harvard University Jeanne Shaheen, Director
    DECEMBER 2005 30 Years of Forums Archived New Frontier Awards Presented New Mayors Briefed George Magazine in the Forum New Survey Released U.S. Senator Barack Obama meets with 2005 IOP summer interns on the U.S. Capitol steps. Institute Expands Internship Opportunities Welcome to the Institute of Politics at Harvard University Jeanne Shaheen, Director After joining the Institute of Politics in July, I want you all to know how very appreciative I am to have this opportunity to serve as IOP Director. I am pleased to announce that the Institute will be receiving new University endowment funds this year. The funds will be used to expand our internship program, to create an initiative for development of leadership skills among undergraduate women, and to offer a scholarship to a SAC alumnus to attend the John F. Kennedy School of Government. This fall, Harvard students and IOP staff continued their work to foster politi- cal engagement on campus and in our community—below are highlights of some of our exciting programs: • After nearly thirty years of fantastic speeches and panels held in the John F. Kennedy Jr. Forum, in early January we will launch a search- able video archive of Forum programs dating from 1978 which will be available on the IOP website. • At the end of November, we welcomed nearly 20 big city mayors from across the country for our Newly-Elected Mayors Program. The conference, co-hosted by the U.S. Conference of Mayors, helps new mayors take on the practical challenges of urban governance. • Our National Campaign hosted its fall conference, “Beyond Voting: College Students and Political Engagement,” focused on non-voting political engagement.
