| 1627350039843467268 | When the #DSA/#WFP/#PSL say that people have a "right to shelter," are these the substandard, unsanitary living conditions they intend for homeless New Yorkers ? @LincolnRestler @EmilyAssembly @SenGonzalezNY @NydiaVelazquez @SecBecerra @NYCMayor @HHSGov @EDNYnews https://t.co/gZKC1A9yWZ | 7 |

| 1626594261671227392 | @EmilyAssembly Your salary went up by $34,000 this year. There entire families who make less than your wage. Why wouldn’t rents go up? Property tax went up, ConEd & National Grid increased rates, insurance cost went up and labor costs went up. First fix @NYCHA and move. | 4 |

| 1626713912916992000 | @EmilyAssembly Legal rents that don’t cover operating costs, ERAP fraud all around me, non functioning housing courts all around the state and socialist policies crushing property rights. Looks like we’ve all got problems. We need solutions from elected officials | 3 |

| 1627258587104911360 | @berrystalliance @NBKParks @EmilyAssembly @LincolnRestler @NYC_DOT South Portland Closed street is like a gated community. People gather in Fort Greene Park across Dekalb NO ONE is on closed S Portland. Someone wants a private gated community on this public street. Have to show proof you live on street. Other residents feel trapped/monitored. | 2 |

| 1627078502351781890 | @EmilyAssembly @JayJacobsLadder “Luxury” is not an empirical term in this context and has essentially been drained of all meaning, like “gentrification.” I am sick to death of people throwing around undefined terms with vibes as if they are making an argument. | 173 |
| 1626946084382679044 | @EmilyAssembly Need more construction! | 172 |

| 1627100619969384448 | @EmilyAssembly @JayJacobsLadder I'm sorry, are you implying a household in like the 98th income percentile is working class? | 109 |

| 1627040663798956033 | @EmilyAssembly This is the "I made a snowball so there can't be climate change" argument of housing. It's embarrassing. https://t.co/hTqwU5MXoY | 90 |

| 1626572221392076801 | @EmilyAssembly An anecdotal “construction is all around” is really disappointing from a representative. | 75 |
| 1627092975301066755 | @EmilyAssembly yes ma’am, constructing new homes obviously has no relation solving the lack of homes. It’s time to ban housing construction 👏 | 50 |
| 1626983549839482881 | @EmilyAssembly Brooklyn CB1 *led the city* in new housing development over the last decade. I hope you will support housing policy in the budget that would ensure development is more evenly distributed moving forward! | 49 |
