Chigawo 1:
Chisankho cha City Council, osekera akutiuza, ndi "mawu chabe." Koma mawu omwe ali mu Resolution 0976-2019-omwe adatha zaka zopitilira opanda voti - ndi ofunika kwambiri. Amaloza njira kudziko labwino komanso lotetezeka.
Chisankho mayitanidwe ku New York City kulekana ndi opanga zida zanyukiliya m'matumba a penshoni a anthu wamba. Ndalama zisanu zapenshoni zamzindawu zimakhala ndimakampani pafupifupi theka la biliyoni m'makampani omwe amapanga zida zanyukiliya, zomwe zikuyimira ndalama zosakwana .25 pazinthu zonse. Chigamulochi chikupemphanso United States kuti ichirikize Pangano Loletsa Zida za Nyukiliya, lomwe lidakhala lamulo lapadziko lonse lapansi analowa ikugwira ntchito mu Januware.
Kugawa ndalama kumayimira gawo laling'ono kulowera kudziko lopanda zida za nyukiliya panthawi yomwe mpikisano wa zida zankhaninkhani, ukuyenda, osanyalanyazidwa, ngati osanenedwa ndi atolankhani ambiri. Koma ndi gawo lofunikira komanso lofunikira.
Ndizosowa kwambiri kuti munthu ali ndi mwayi wopulumutsa moyo, osaganizira chilichonse chothandiza kupulumutsa moyo wonse wamunthu. Mneneri Corey Johnson atha kuloleza City Council kuti ipereke chigamulochi tsopano kuti zitsimikizire zomwe mzinda wathu ukufunika, ndikuchita gawo lawo mtsogolo mwa umunthu.
Mu Epulo 2018, atadziwitsidwa kwa omenyera ufulu wawo, Wapampando wa Zachuma ku City Council, a Daniel Dromm adalembera kalata Comptroller Scott Stringer kupempha ndalama za penshoni za NYC kuchokera kwa omwe amapindula ndi makampani azida zanyukiliya. Mwawona ulalo
"Kuchotsedwa kwathu kumapereka chidziwitso kumabungwe azachuma komanso mabungwe padziko lonse lapansi kuti anthu ogwira ntchito mwakhama ku New York akukana kupezedwa ndalama ndi mafakitale oyipawa komanso osaloledwa."
Pambuyo pofunsanso mobwerezabwereza, kuyambira lero, Tsiku la Chikumbutso 2021, a Scott Stringer sanachitepo kanthu pempho lathu la City Council Finance. Scott akuthamangira Meya wa NYC, ndipo tsopano Corey akufuna kutenga udindo wake wa NYC Comptroller, wokhala ndi mbiri yofananira yosachitapo zomwezi. Choyipa chachikulu, Spika Johnson waletsa mwachangu chisankhochi chodziwika bwino kuti chisakwaniritsidwe.
Comptroller Stringer ndi Spika wa Khonsolo Johnson onse amalankhula za anthu otengera zitsanzo, omwe amati adalimbikitsa moyo wawo.
Ali mwana Scott amachitira umboni mayi ake ndi msuwani wake, woimira wathu waku America woyamika Bella Abzug akugwira ntchito. Itadutsa desiki yake, adanyalanyaza nkhani yayikuluyi Bella anali wodzipereka kwathunthu; Kuthetsa zida zanyukiliya. Mu 1961 Bella adathandizira kupeza Women Strike For Peace (WSP), bungwe lomwe lidachita chiwonetsero chachikulu kwambiri cha amayi mzaka zapitazi, likufuna kuti ayimitse mpikisano wanyukiliya. Mpaka pano adapitilizabe kukhala milatho yathu yolimba ndi azimayi aku Soviet Union munthawi ya Cold War.
Wokamba nkhani Corey Johnson atha kuwonetsa kuti amalemekezadi ngwazi yomwe adalengezedwa komanso kudzoza kwakukulu, malemu Bayard Rustin, chimphona chathu chachikulu chokhudza ufulu wachibadwidwe ku New York City, mpainiya wolimbikira LGBT, mpaka kufika popereka moyo wake, trailblazer wathu wodzipereka pothetsa dziko la zida za nyukiliya.
Rustin anali mtsogoleri wotsutsa wazida izi kuyambira ma 1940. Mu 1955 adamangidwa kunja kwa City Hall ndi a Dorothy Day ndi ena chifukwa chotsutsa mayiko kuvomereza zamisala komanso chitetezo chabodza cholowa m'malo obisalapo panthawi yomwe zida zanyukiliya zikuyenera kuchitika. Amadziwa bwino pomwe boma lomwe likanavomerezabe pagulu; Palibe pogona, palibe chitetezo, palibe chitetezo, ndipo palibe nzeru. Pamaso pa Khonsolo ya Mzinda womwe a Corey Johnson amatenga nawo mbali ngati Spika, ku City Hall pa Public Hearing pa chigamulochi, mnzake wa a Bayard Rustin, a Walter Naegle, adali ndi umboni wapadera kuti: "Akadakhala kuti [Bayard] ali nafe lero, ndikudziwa kuti akadalimbikitsa Khonsolo ya Mzindawu ipita patsogolo pantchitozi. ”
Malinga ndi ofesi yamalamulo ya Wapampando wa Zachuma a Danny Dromm (atapempha mobwerezabwereza kuti a Danny ayankhe mwachindunji), a Spika a Corey Johnson apitilizabe kuvota, popanda kufotokozera. Amalongosola wokamba nkhani yemwe sangasunthike. Ngakhale Danny satsatira kudzipereka kwake kwa ife. Tonsefe timamvetsetsa kuchedwa, komanso kuchepa kwa ngongole chifukwa chofunikira kwambiri pa Covid-19. Inenso ndine namwino wokangalika munthawi yovuta iyi yomwe ikuwonekabe patsogolo pathu. Koma, chaka ndi miyezi inayi zatha kuchokera Kumva kwa Anthu.
Ndi Corey Johnson akufunsa nzika zam'mizinda kuti zimupatse udindo woti akwaniritse udindo wa Scotts Comptroller, chitsanzo chake chochedwetsa chipinda cham'mbuyo komanso kukakamizidwa chidatipangitsa kuti tisiyire kaye kuthandizira wina yemwe timamukonda m'njira zina. Kuloleza voti pa chisankhochi kudzaulula ndikuwunikira maudindo a ochepa omwe akuti akuchititsa kuti asachitepo kanthu. Izi zitha kukhala zothandiza osati kwa mamembala ambiri a Council omwe amathandizira chisankho cha 0976, koma kwa onse omwe akuvota ku New York akumuganizira kuti atimenyere zofunika zachuma.
Zida za nyukiliya ndi nkhani yofunika kwambiri yomwe tingathe kuchitapo kanthu zenizeni, lero. Timawapanga, ndi zofuna zandale, titha kuwanyenga. Tchulani Chomera chathu cha Power Point ku India.
Ngati chigamulochi sichidaperekedwe milungu ingapo ikubwerayi, ikanakhala kuti yataya omwe amathandizira pantchito yopuma pantchito, ndikukhala ndi dongosolo lalitali kwambiri loti abwezeretsedwe mu Khonsolo Yotsatirayi ndi utsogoleri watsopano komanso umembala. Mamembala a Khonsolo a Danny Dromm, omwe sakufuna kuti asankhidwenso, ndipo omwe adafotokozeranso malamulo ake ngati chinthu chofunikira kwambiri kwa iwo, omwe adalonjeza kuti adzawawona mpaka kumapeto, sanatero.
Adafunsa kuti alimbikitse mazana a anthu aku New York kuti ayimbire foni kuti athandizire chigamulochi, chomwe posakhalitsa chidachita bwino kwambiri, ndikupeza ulemu waukulu pakati pa kusaina mamembala a Khonsolo, ndikutsanulidwa kwakukulu kwa mboni zomwe zidadzaza City Hall Kumva Pagulu ndi nzeru komanso kulingalira bwino. CM Dromm ndi othandizira ena, kuphatikiza membala wa Khonsolo Ben Kallos, yemwe tsopano akuthamangira Purezidenti wa Manhattan Borough, ali ndi udindo wogwiritsa ntchito ndalama zandale kuti asonkhanitse anzawo ndikupempha Khonsolo kuti ifike kudzachita voti.
Kupitiliza cholowa chantchito yaboma, ino ndi nthawi yoti onse a CM Dromm ndi Spika Johnson atenge udindo ndikutsatira. Ngati sichoncho, zidziwike ndikulemba pagulu kuti zaka ziwiri ndi theka zakulimbikitsidwa kwa anthu ammudzi zakhala zikuchitika pazandale, osayankha mlandu kwa nzika, popanda ulemu wofotokozera chifukwa chomveka. Miyezi yaposachedwa yamafoni olemekezeka ndi maimelo sanayankhidwe.
Othandizira onse komanso omenyera ufulu wawo amapindula pobwerera kukhala "nkhani imodzi". Komabe, nkhani ya zida za nyukiliya ibwerera mobwerezabwereza mpaka titayankha, kapena chitukuko chitatha. Mtengo wamagazini imodzi ndikubwezera zina zonse zofunika patsogolo.
Vuto lofunikira lomwe tikusiya mosamala ana athu akulu ndi awa: katundu wolemetsa wanyengo / chilengedwe, ndi izi mopitilira zida zowopsa zowonongera. Ndizowopseza zomwe zimakhalapo, zomwe zimafotokozera momveka bwino komanso mphamvu zathu. Zotsatira zoyipa zilizonse zanyukiliya, zolakwika, kuwukira kwa cyber kapena kusinthana kwa zida za nyukiliya zitha kukhala zobwezeretsa posachedwa komanso zosasinthika kuzolinga zonse zachilengedwe, komanso moyo wamunthu.
Popanda kukokomeza, kupeŵa, komanso kusagwira ntchito kwa atsogoleri a NYC omwe alipo pakadali pano amathandizira kufalitsa zabodza za gulu lankhondo lomwe lathawa lomwe tazolowera. Kukhala chete kumeneku kumatsutsa zonse zomwe asayansi, zamankhwala, ndi zamalamulo akhazikitsa pazanyumba zanyukiliya ndi zotsatira zake. Ena mwa magulu athu olimba mtima opuma pantchito omwe atsogolera magulu athu onse a zida zankhondo (zida za nyukiliya) amavomereza zopanda pake izi pazolinga zilizonse zovomerezeka zankhondo.
Kukhala chete kumeneku kumathandizira ndikupititsa patsogolo mpikisano wapano wa zida zanyukiliya, mpikisano wopanda nzika, kapena demokalase. Monga wodziwika ku New Yorker, Reverend Dan Berrigan adanenanso momveka bwino kukhothi ku 1980 chifukwa choyambirira cha Plowshares, "Izi zinthu ndi athu. Ndi athu…. ” Anasiya woweruza ndi woweruza ndi mawu omaliza. “Udindo.”
Kukhala chete ndi komwe kumalola kuti malingaliro olakwika kwambiri komanso okalamba atha kuzimiririka, komanso nthano yonse yoti tidzakhala ndi "mwayi kwamuyaya". Amatchedwa "kuganiza zamatsenga". Ambiri mwa mamembala a Khonsolo ya NYC sanangodutsa kuti awone kuwala, koma awonetsa nzeru, kulimba mtima komanso kulingalira mozama kuti achitepo kanthu. Ambiri mwa mamembala a NYC Council, monga Khonsolo idachita zaka makumi angapo zapitazo, agwirizana ndi lamulo lanzeru lapadziko lonse lapansi lothandizidwa ndi chigamulochi.
Mneneri wa Khonsolo yathu akumvera munthu yemwe sanamuzindikire. Ngati akuletsa zomwe bungweli likuchita pamsonkhano, ndi chiyani chomwe chimamulepheretsa kuchita zomwe Comptroller adachita? Ndipo ngati tadutsa, sitingafune Woyang'anira Wosagwedezeka akukoka mapazi ake monga Scott Stringer adachita ndi kupatula mafuta.
M'malo mwathu, NYC Comptroller akuyitanidwa kuti azikhala ndiudindo pazachuma, kuti tiziwonetsetsa "maudindo athu". Ndi ntchito, yofunikira kwambiri. CM Danny Dromm monga Wapampando wa Zachuma ku City Council komanso woyambitsa chisankho cha 0976 anali kukwaniritsa zomwe amafuna kuti akhale ndiudindo pazachuma.
Ponena zaudindo, tiyeni tiunikire banki yadziko yomwe idakhazikitsidwa pano ku NYC pazaka 98 zapitazi. Panali chifukwa chabwino Amalgamated Bank idatumiza Senior VP kukapereka umboni pamawu ndi zochita za Resolution 0976 ku Khonsolo ya Public Hearing kuti chifukwa chiyani kupatukana kwa zida zanyukiliya ndikupambana mzindawo.

Pankhani ya Nyengo, zida za nyukiliya, komanso kusankhana mitundu, ndi dziko limodzi laling'ono, lamtengo wapatali, lolumikizana. Tiyenera kuchilikiza ndi kuyikapo ndalama.
Chonde werengani chifukwa chake Amalgamated Bank ili ndi mfundo zolimba kuti zisayikemo ndalama kapena kuloleza malonda ndi makampani azida zanyukiliya, komanso chifukwa chomwe akuwona kuti ndiwanzeru, odalirika, komanso opindulitsa pamaakaunti onse.

Msonkhano wapagulu la New York City Hall wokhudza Nuclear Ban and Divestment pa Januware 29, 2020 (Chithunzi ndi Davd Andersson)

Ndi gulu lofunika kwambiri kuti ngati mutachita bwino mudzakhala ndi zotsatira zabwino, zabwino mumzinda wathu, m'dziko lathu, komanso padziko lapansi. Idzaimitsa kuwonongeka kokha.
Kusintha kwa 0976-2019 kumangothandiza kudzutsa, kuwongolera ndi kuphunzitsa Oyimira athu. Zimapereka utsogoleri weniweni munthawi yovuta, komanso zimayesetsa kuteteza tsogolo lathu. Sikuti zimangokhumudwitsa zabodza zamakampaniwo, koma zimawonetsera mgwirizano ndi anthu onse. Zikuyimira kusankhana kwazinthu zamakampani, ndipo zitha kukhala chofunikira pantchito yathu yopewetsa kusinthika kopitilira chiwonongeko chowopsa. Ikugwirizana ndi lingaliro lina loyenera la Khonsolo lomwe limafuna kuti tisunthire ndalama zathu ndi malingaliro athu kuchoka kunkhondo, kupita kumayankho ndi zotsatira zake, Resolution 747-A.
Januware 28th, 2020, adadzaza ndi City Hall Public Hearing pa Danny Dromm Res. 0976 idatsimikiziranso kuti NYC idakonzekereranso kuti ibwezeretse mpikisano wothamangitsa zida zanyukiliya, mpikisano nthawi ino yomwe makampani ambiri amafalitsa amanyalanyaza mwadala, ndikupangitsa nzika kukhala zosazindikira.
Utsogoleri umayitanitsa osati kungochotsedwa kokha koma kuthandizira pangano lakale, lakale loletsa kuletsa zida za nyukiliya.
Chimodzi mwazinthu zikwi zikwi za zida za nyukiliya zodzitchinjiriza pakhungu mu mphindi zidzasintha zonse, zonse zomwe timakonda, kuyamikira, zonse zomwe tikudziwa, tonse, kukhala phulusa. Monga Purezidenti Eisenhower mu 1960 adatchulira mafano kuti, "kuba", "kubedwa" uku kwa zinthu zosayerekezeka, maluso ndi ndalama zimachitika pomwe tikulimbana kuti tithandizire mabizinesi ang'onoang'ono, kulipira yankho la Covid ndi chithandizo chamankhwala, kuchonderera chilungamo nyumba, maphunziro abwino, zomangamanga zofunikira, kutukuka mpaka zovuta zathu zanyengo / zovuta zachilengedwe, komanso kusintha kwakukulu kwandale / chikhalidwe chomwe chimatiyitana.
Membala wa Khonsolo yanga, m'modzi mwa oyamba kusaina chigamulochi ndi CM Carlina Rivera. Akafunsidwa miyezi yapitayo, amayankha, "Inde, tiyeni tiitane voti! Izi sizothandiza. ”
Ulalo wa kusamvana ndikumvetsera uli ndi kujambula kwamavidiyo kwa maumboni apakamwa, ndi fayilo ya .pdf yolemba zonse:
Pa 11 February wapitawu, pawonetsero ya WNYC ya Brian Lehrer Show, a Spika Johnson modabwitsa adayankha funso la omwe adayimbira ndi kulimbikitsidwa kuti achite izi: "Ndikuchirikiza [chigamulo] 100%, ...

Ndikungoganiza kuti funso ndi ili: kodi izi zikutipatsa chitsanzo kuti tisunge zigamulo zomwe zili kunja kwa ulamuliro wa bungwe lalamulo…. ”
Gulu la a Brian Lehrer adalumikizidwa kangapo kuti asangalatse kutsatira lonjezo la Corey pawonetsero kuti alankhule ndi Danny. Palibe amene adayankha mwachindunji.
Ponena za yankho la Corey, tiyeni tiike pambali funso loti kaya kuwonongedwa kwa moyo wapadziko lapansi ndi nkhani yakomweko kapena yapadziko lonse lapansi. Chowonadi ndi nthawi ya kuyitanidwa kwa mwezi wa February, kuwunika mwachangu kunapeza njira zina khumi ndi zisanu ndi chimodzi za NY City Hall njira zina zokhudzana ndi "mavuto apadziko lonse" munthawi ya Covid.
Mzinda wa New York wakhala ndi mbiri yodzitukumula kwanthawi yayitali "yolemekeza nkhani zamayiko ena." Chimodzi mwazomwe timaphunzitsidwazi chinali Khonsolo yomwe idafunsa kuti makampani omwe akuchita bizinesi ku South Africa achotsedwe - monga New York City Employees 'Retirement System inachitira mu 1984 - ndipo inali yofunikira pakugwa kwa tsankho. Kugawanika kwa mafuta kwakumbuyo komwe Scott Stringer amapeza kuti ndi mwayi wopachika chipewa chake, ndi nkhani yapadziko lonse lapansi.

Iwo adayitana "maphwando amdani" kuti akambirane m'malo mwake, kuti atuluke pachiwopsezo chachikulu ichi ndikuwononga chuma chathu. Purezidenti John F.

Kuletsedwa kwake kudayenera kukhala gawo loyamba kulanda zida zonse. Mitundu yonse idapezeka ku UN General Assembly kuti Sep 1963 pomwe oimirawo adayamba kuwomba m'manja kawirikawiri pomwe JFK amalankhula za izi. Anthu akhala okonzeka nthawi zonse.
