Wherever you live, and whatever you feel, there is no escaping the fact that New York City matters.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Alert!<b> <\/b>Do you know about the <b>4 proposals<\/b> on the back of the ballot that will further tank New York? As always, the path to hell is via \u201csocial justice\u201d and \u201cclimate change.\u201d\u00a0<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>The 4 proposals were snuck in by former disaster Mayor de Blasio, championed by current disaster Mayor Adams, and ignored by current Republican candidates.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<br \/><b>Proposal 1. Environmental Bond Act of 2022<\/b><br \/>\u00a0<br \/>You may wonder why New York hasn\u2019t already solved \u201cclimate change\u201d with all the money and machinations thrown at the \u201cproblem.\u201d The mentally dysmorphic Democrat rulers think they have G-d like powers and can stop the tides, control the sun, and shape-shift temperature, if <i>only<\/i> they can spend more of your money. This proposal permits New York State to go further into debt and add a further $4.2 billion through a bond issuance for environmental projects with total dominion over which donor or group gets the contracts for the $4.2 billion dollars.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>$250 million will go to improving stormwater systems, $200 million for wastewater infrastructure, $1.5 billion for climate mitigation and renewable energy projects and $500 million for zero-emissions school buses. Ask any mom where zero-emissions school buses register on their list of priorities and the answer will be nowhere. Second, this Ponzi scheme <i>only<\/i> adds up to $2,450,000,000 billion dollars &#8211; where the hell is the remainder of the $4.2 billion being dispersed? Oh, whatever, who cares, you\u2019re a \u201cclimate denier\u201d, as Hochul would say.\u00a0<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>Here\u2019s good news, Elizabeth Moran, an Albany-based policy advocate at EarthJustice, says while this is a move in the right direction, New York State will \u201cneed to invest far more when it comes to addressing the climate crisis.\u201d In other words, spending your money to fight a paper dragon never ends. Why choose to do something remotely achievable, like pick up the trash or prosecute criminals when there\u2019s an issue like fighting climate change necessitating government expansion?<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>Former Governor Cuomo came up with the Bond Act but the <i>only <\/i>reason it was scrapped from being on the state government priority list was because of another financial boondoggle the Left created &#8211; COVID lockdowns. A brain trust got together and thought it wouldn\u2019t resonate well with the public grappling with financial freefall. Now that people are in true economic hell, tone deaf Hochul and the Democrats think it\u2019s perfect timing. To sharpen the pain, Governor Hochul added $1.2 billion to Cuomo\u2019s idea, which the Democrat state legislature approved.<\/p>\n<p>Proposals 2 through 4 are rooted in racism towards everyone other than those democrats designate as \u201cpeople of color.\u201d De Blasio came up with these alongside the <a href=\"https:\/\/racialjustice.cityofnewyork.us\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Racial Justice Commission<\/a> headed by civil rights lawyer Jennifer Jones Austin, vice chair of Al Sharpton\u2019s National Action Network, as a salute to BLM. These are supposed to address systemic racism towards blacks which doesn\u2019t exist. Ignored is the Left\u2019s created systemic racism towards whites, Jews, Asians, heterosexuals, and Christians. They\u2019re being denied entry at schools, like Harvard and Gifted &#038; Talented. Excluded from banking promotions; \u201cBank of America announced new zero down payment loans for first time homebuyers in predominantly Black and Hispanic neighborhoods. Those loans include grants of up to $15,000. JP Morgan Chase and TD Bank offer similar loans with grants of $5,000\u201d, according to NPR. Preference for jobs, like acceptance to Harvard, has a large component of pigmentation above that of merit.<\/p>\n<p><b>Proposal 2. Statement of Values for City Government<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Beyond parody, the second proposal allows the Left to create a mission statement for New York\u2019s government on \u201cvalues and vision.\u201d The race obsessives will create a \u201cjust and equitable city for all.\u201d Just not equitable for Jews or Asians. Under New York Democrat rule, hate crimes against Jews are up nearly 300% and up against Asians 177%. Statistical evidence from COMPStat shows no percent of hate crimes are perpetrated against blacks (which is great and should be celebrated rather than lied about for political expediency.) \u00a0Whites also won\u2019t be included in the equity mission &#8211; Mayor Adams wants photographs for city job applicants. The mission \u201cacknowledges and speaks to historical wrongs\u201d in order to \u201creconstruct, revise and reimagine our city\u2019s foundations, structures, institutions, and laws to promote justice and equity for all New Yorkers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t get more anti-American than this, folks. We\u2019ve seen what the Democrats\u2019 version of \u201creimagine\u201d looks like and that\u2019s Manhattan DA Bragg &#8211; and this is <i>before<\/i> being legally voted into the mission. New York has become so intolerable we beat California in outmigration. Should this proposal pass, the racists might get their wish for segregation &#8211; everyone other than the amorphous \u201cpeople of color\u201d and new sanctuary arrivals could be pushed out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>Proposal 3. Racial Equity Plans and Office<\/b><\/p>\n<p>All city agencies will be forced to create \u201cracial equity plans.\u201d. A new Office of Racial Equity, <b>funded by taxpayers,<\/b> will enforce racial equity planning throughout New York City government creating a Commission on Racial Equity. The commission will decide racial equity planning for each city agency. What could possibly be the applicant requirements for this created post; grievance, color, identification, political party?<\/p>\n<p><b>Proposal 4. True Cost of Living<\/b><br \/>\u00a0<br \/>A socialist idea for taxpayers to offset costs of those that can\u2019t afford to live in New York City but still stay. The \u201ctrue cost of living\u201d supposedly tabulates all costs &#8211; but the government and unelected bureaucrats are in charge, so burning your money will be more efficient.<\/p>\n<p>This, too, was dreamed up by the <a href=\"https:\/\/racialjustice.cityofnewyork.us\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Racial Justice Commission<\/a>. It takes issue that public assistance is considered income, because for some reason, that shouldn\u2019t count. \u00a0\u201cTrue cost\u201d will be based on \u201cactual household income required to meet the essential needs of people living in New York City,\u201d and needs like housing, childcare, food, transportation, healthcare, clothing and shoes, hygiene products, school supplies, household items, telephone and internet services, and more. The problem, nothing is affordable anymore in New York, thanks again to the Left. Furthermore, the Left\u2019s Communist approach believes everyone is entitled to everything funded by other people\u2019s money.<\/p>\n<p>If these 4 proposals pass, they go into effect immediately. The beneficiaries will be government employees (more hires at hire salaries, task forces, distribution of taxpayer money) donors, and relatives (the bridge to nowhere, THRIVE, cost taxpayers $1 billion dollars, shoveled off to de Blasio\u2019s wife and doubled the constituency it was supposed to help, those with mental disorders.). The losers will be the taxpayers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<br \/>Plain fact of ballot proposals is that they\u2019re legal pay-offs that uninformed taxpayers vote in. Historically, they originate from the Left. Rule of thumb, always vote NO.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the Sidewalks of New York is a weekly feature at Human Events wherein Jacqueline Toboroff, a native New Yorker, will share<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1724240,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[547],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1724237","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-bongino-report"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1724237","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1724237"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1724237\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1724240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1724237"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1724237"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1724237"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
