Isisombululo seBhunga lesiXeko, abahlalutyi basixelela, “ngamazwi nje.” Kodwa amagama akwisiGqibo se-0976-2019-ashiyeke engaphezulu konyaka ngaphandle kwevoti-abaluleke kakhulu. Zalatha indlela kwilizwe elibhetele nelikhuselekileyo.
Isisombululo iifowuni kwisiXeko saseNew York sokuzahlula kubenzi bezixhobo zenyukliya kwiingxowa-mali zomhlala-phantsi zabasebenzi bakarhulumente. Iingxowa-mali zomhlala-phantsi ezintlanu zedolophu zibambe malunga nesiqingatha sezigidigidi zeedola kwiinkampani ezichaphazelekayo kwishishini lezixhobo zenyukliya, ezimele ngaphantsi kwe .25 yazo zonke izinto ezikhoyo kwinkqubo. Isisombululo sikwabiza ne-United States ukuba ixhase iSivumelwano soThintelo lwezixhobo zeNyukliya, esaba ngumthetho wamanye amazwe ungene iqale ukusebenza ngoJanuwari.
Uhluthiso lwempahla lubonisa inyathelo elincinci lokuya kwilizwe elingenazo izixhobo zenyukliya ngexesha apho umdyarho weengalo ezizigidi-ngezigidi usiya uqhuba, ubukhulu becala ungakhathalelwanga, ukuba awuchazwanga gwenxa yimithombo yeendaba. Kodwa linyathelo elibalulekileyo nelibalulekileyo.
Kunqabile kakhulu ukuba umntu abe nethuba lokusindisa ubomi, ungaze uncede ugcine bonke ubomi bomntu. USomlomo uCorey Johnson angavumela iBhunga lesiXeko ukuba lipasise esi sisombululo ngoku ukungqina izinto eziphambili zesixeko sethu, kwaye senze nenxaxheba kwikamva loluntu.
Ngo-Epreli 2018, emva kokwaziswa kubameli, uSihlalo wezeziMali weBhunga leSixeko, uDaniel Dromm wabhala ileta eya ku-Comptroller Scott Stringer ecela imali ye-pension ye-NYC. Yabona xhuma uxwebhu
"Ukwahlulwa kwethu kungathumela uphawu olucacileyo kumaziko ezemali nakwimibutho yabasebenzi kwihlabathi liphela ukuba abantu baseNew York abasebenza nzima bayala ukufumana isibonelelo semali kweli shishini likhohlakeleyo neliphikisayo."
Emva kokubuza okuphindiweyo, ukusukela namhlanje, uSuku lweSikhumbuzo u-2021, uScott Stringer akenzanga nto kwisicelo seSihlalo sezeziMali seBhunga lesiXeko. UScott usebenzela usodolophu we-NYC, kwaye ngoku uCorey unqwenela ukuthatha isikhundla sakhe se-NYC soMlawuli, kunye nembali ehambelanayo yokungathathi amanyathelo ngokufanayo. Okubi nangakumbi, uSomlomo uJohnson usithintele ngenkuthalo esi sisombululo sixhaphakileyo ekuxhaseni ukuzaliseka.
UMlawuli oLawulayo kunye noSomlomo weBhunga uJohnson bobabini bathetha ngabantu abayimizekelo, abathi babakhuthaza ubomi babo.
Njengomntwana uScott wayeya kungqina umama wakhe kunye nomzala wakhe, uMmeli wethu odumileyo waseMelika uBella Abzug esebenza. Xa iwela idesika yakhe, akawuhoyanga lo mbandela uphambili uBella wayezinikele ngentshiseko kuye; Ukupheliswa kwezixhobo zenyukliya. Ngo-1961 u-Bella wanceda ekufumaneni i-Women Strike For Peace (i-WSP), umbutho owawubambe owona mboniso ubalaseleyo wesizwe sabasetyhini kwinkulungwane ephelileyo, efuna ukumiswa kukhuphiswano lwezixhobo zenyukliya. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku uqhubeke ukuba yintshatsheli yethu yokwakha iibhlorho kunye nabasetyhini beSoviet Union ngexesha loMlo obandayo.
USomlomo uCorey Johnson angabonisa ukuba uyalihlonipha iqhawe lakhe elibhengeziweyo kunye nenkuthazo enkulu, ongasekhoyo uBayard Rustin, isigebenga sethu esikhulu samalungelo oluntu kwisiXeko saseNew York, uvulindlela wobutshantliziyo be-LGBT, ukuya kwinqanaba lokunikela ngobomi bakhe, itrailblazer yethu ezinikele ngokupheleleyo umhlaba wezixhobo zenyukliya.
URustin wayengumchasi ophambili kwezi zixhobo ukusukela kwiminyaka yoo-1940. Ngo-1955 wabanjwa ngaphandle kweHolo yeSixeko kunye noDorothy Day kunye nabanye ngokuchasene neentlanga ezivuma ubuyatha kunye nokhuseleko olungelulo lokungena kwiindawo zokuhlala ngexesha lokuhlaselwa kwenyukliya. Babeyazi kakuhle ngoko into urhulumente asala ukuyamkela kuluntu; Akukho ndawo yokuhlala, akukho khuseleko, akukho khuseleko, kwaye akukho ngqondo. Phambi kweBhunga lesiXeko uCorey Johnson asebenza kulo njengoSomlomo, kwiNdibano yesiXeko kwiNdibano kaWonkewonke ngesi sigqibo, iqabane likaBayard Rustin, uWalter Naegle, wayenobungqina obubalulekileyo: “Ukuba ebenathi [Bayard] nathi namhlanje, ndiyazi ukuba ebeya kubongoza IBhunga lesiXeko ukuya phambili kula manyathelo. ”
Ngokwe-ofisi yowiso-mthetho kaSihlalo wezeziMali uDanny Dromm (emva kwezicelo eziphindiweyo zokuba uDanny aphendule ngokuthe ngqo), uSomlomo uCorey Johnson uqhubeke nokuvumela ivoti, ngaphandle kwengcaciso. Bachaza uSomlomo ongekhe ashukume. Kananjalo uDanny akazukulandela ngokuzibophelela kwakhe kuthi. Sonke sasiqonda ukulibaziseka, kunye nokusilela emva kwamatyala ngenxa yokuphambili kweCovid-19. Nam ndingumongikazi okhutheleyo kuyo yonke le mingeni mikhulu isenzeka phambi kwethu. Kodwa, unyaka kunye neenyanga ezi-4 zigqithile ukusukela oko kuva kuLuntu.
NgeCorey Johnson ebuza abahlali bedolophu ukuba bamnike ukuba agcwalise isikhundla seScotts Comptroller, umzekelo wakhe wokulibaziseka kwegumbi elingasemva kunye nokunyanzeliswa kwasibangela ukuba sime kancinci ukuxhasa umntu esithanda ngaye nangezinye iindlela. Ukuvumela ivoti yesi sisombululo kuyakubhenca kwaye kucacise izikhundla zabambalwa athi zichaphazela ukungasebenzi kwakhe. Oku kungabalulekanga kungekuphela kuninzi lwaMalungu eBhunga axhasa isisombululo se-0976, kodwa kubo bonke abavoti baseNew York abamthathela ingqalelo ekulweleni izinto eziphambili ngokubaluleka kwezemali.
Izixhobo zenyukliya yinto enye ebalulekileyo esinokuthi senze into ebonakalayo ngayo, namhlanje. Sibenza, ngentando yezopolitiko, sinokubadibanisa. Isalathiso seZiko lethu loMbane laseNdiya.
Ukuba isisombululo asiphumelelanga kwezi veki zimbalwa zizayo, iyakuba ilahlekelwe ngumxhasi wayo wokuqala kumhlala phantsi, kwaye iya kuba nomyalelo omde kakhulu wokuba iphinde ibuyiselwe kwiBhunga lesiXeko elilandelayo ngobunkokheli bayo obutsha kunye nobulungu. Ilungu leBhunga uDanny Dromm, ongafuni ukuphinda akhethwe kwakhona, kwaye ngubani owakhe wachaza umthetho wakhe njengeyona nto iphambili kuye, owayethembise ukuyibona kude kube sekupheleni, okwangoku.
Ucele ukuba ahlanganise amakhulu abantu baseNew York ukuba bafowunele kwaye baxhase isisombululo, esiphumelele ngokukhawuleza, ukufumana ngokukhawuleza okukhulu kokutyikitywa kwamalungu eBhunga, kunye nokuthululwa okukhulu kwamangqina asezantsi azalisa iHolo yeSixeko. Ukuva esidlangalaleni ngobukrelekrele kwaye, nengqondo eqhelekileyo. I-CM Dromm kunye nabanye abaxhasi, kubandakanya iLungu leBhunga uBen Kallos, ngoku obalekela uMongameli waseManhattan Borough, banembopheleleko yokuchitha imali yezopolitiko ukuqokelela oogxa babo kwaye bacele iBhunga ukuba lifike kuvoto.
Ukuqhubeka nelifa lenkonzo yoluntu, ngoku lixesha lokuba bobabini i-CM Dromm kunye noSomlomo uJohnson bathathe uxanduva kwaye balulandele. Ukuba akunjalo, ingaqatshelwa ngokufanelekileyo kwaye irekhodwe esidlangalaleni ukuba iminyaka emibini enesiqingatha yemizamo yoluntu ekhuthazekileyo sele iphoswe kwimfumba yezopolitiko ngabo, ngaphandle koxanduva kubemi, ngaphandle kwembeko esisiseko yokuchaza isizathu esivakalayo. Iinyanga zamva nje zeefowuni ezihloniphekileyo kunye nee-imeyile aziphendulwanga.
Bonke abameli kunye namatshantliziyo baxhamla ngokubuya umva ekubeni "ngumba omnye". Nangona kunjalo, umba wezixhobo zenyukliya uza kubuya kwakhona de siphinde siwuphendule, okanye impucuko iphele. Iindleko zalo mbandela ubuyela umva kuzo zonke izinto eziphambili ngokubaluleka.
Eyona micimbi mibini iphambili esishiya ngokungenankathalo abantwana bethu ukuba bajongane nayo yile: umthwalo omkhulu wemozulu yethu / okusingqongileyo, kwaye ezi zingaphaya kwezixhobo ezoyikekayo zokutshabalalisa. Zizinto ezisongelayo ezinxulumene ngokusondeleyo, zombini ezibiza konke ukucaca namandla ethu. Iziphumo ezibi zalo naliphi na inqanaba lokuhlaselwa kwenyukliya, ngempazamo, uhlaselo lwe-cyber okanye utshintshiselwano lwenyukliya iya kuba kukubuyela umva kwangoko nangokubuyela umva kuzo zonke iinjongo zokusingqongileyo, kunye nobomi babantu.
Ngaphandle kwe-hyperbole, ukuthintela, kunye nokungasebenzi kwezi nkokeli zangoku ze-NYC zixhasa ipropaganda elahlekisayo yomzi-mveliso wezomkhosi obalekileyo esele siqhelile. Le cwaka iphikisana nayo yonke inzululwazi, unyango kunye nolwazi olusemthethweni malunga nomzi mveliso wenyukliya kunye neziphumo zayo. Abanye babaGadi bethu abomeleleyo abathathe umhlala-phantsi abaye bazikhokela zonke iiQhinga lethu leQhinga (izixhobo zenyukliya) bayavuma ukuba ngamampunge kwezi zinto zisemthethweni okanye ziluncedo kwezomkhosi.
Olu cwangco lwenza ukuba ngaloo ndlela luqhubele phambili ugqatso lwezixhobo zenyukliya, ugqatso ngaphandle kokubandakanyeka kwabemi, okanye inkqubo yedemokhrasi. Njengomnye odumileyo waseNew Yorker, uMfundisi uDan Berrigan wayibeka yacaca enkundleni ngo-1980 ngesenzo sokuqala sePlowshares, “Ezi izinto ngabethu. Ngabethu…. ” Washiya ijaji kunye nejaji ngelizwi elinye lokugqibela. "Uxanduva."
Ukuthula yinto evumela ukuba ithiyori enesiphene kunye nexesha elidala lokuthintela inyukliya ukuba ichume, kunye nentsomi epheleleyo yokuba siza kuba "nethamsanqa ngonaphakade". Ibizwa ngokuba “kukucinga ngomlingo”. Uninzi lwamalungu eBhunga le-NYC alugqithanga nje ukubona ukukhanya, kodwa abonise ubulumko, isibindi kunye nengqondo yokwenza into ngalo. Uninzi lwaMalungu eBhunga le-NYC, njengoko iBhunga lenzayo kumashumi eminyaka edlulileyo, alungelelanise nalo mthetho mtsha uqaqambileyo wamanye amazwe uxhaswe kwesi sigqibo.
USomlomo weBhunga lethu umamele umntu angamchazanga. Ukuba umisa oku kuphunyezwe luluntu kwinqanaba leBhunga, yintoni emnqandayo ekwenzeni okufanayo noMlawuli weeNqila? Kwaye ukuba sidlulile, besingayi kufuna ukuba uMlawuli oGunyazisayo onganyangekiyo arhuqe iinyawo zakhe njengoScott Stringer ngokwenza uqhushululu.
Egameni lethu, uMlawuli we-NYC ubizwa ukuba abe noxanduva kwezemali, ukuze abeke esweni "uxanduva lwethu lwezobugcisa". Ngumsebenzi, inkonzo ebalulekileyo. U-CM Danny Dromm njengoSihlalo wezeziMali weBhunga leSixeko kunye nomngenisi wesisombululo se-0976 wayefezekisa imfuno yakhe yokuba noxanduva kwezemali ngokunjalo.
Ukuthetha ngoxanduva, makhe siqaqambise ibhanki yesizwe esekwe kwaye esekwe apha kwi-NYC kule minyaka ingama-98 idlulileyo. Kwakukho isizathu esihle sokuba iBhanki edityanisiweyo yathumela i-VP ePhakamileyo ukuba ingqina kwilizwi nakwisigqibo seSigqibo 0976 kwiNdibano yoLuntu yeBhunga malunga nokuba kutheni ukwahlulwa kwimizi-mveliso yenyukliya kukuphumelela kwesi sixeko. Amalgamated ubungqina bokuba kutheni ukubiza ukuxhasa isiVumelwano seNyukliya kunceda iibhanki kunye neenjongo zethu zokutyala imali kwisixeko esizinzileyo, nakwiplanethi. Ewe, kule bhanki inyani kukuba, isixeko sethu, ilizwe kunye nehlabathi azinakwahluka, kwaye ziyaxhomekeka. Xa kuziwa kwimozulu, izixhobo zenyukliya, kunye nobuhlanga, lelinye ilizwe elincinci, elixabisekileyo nelidibeneyo. Kufuneka siyithethelele kwaye siyityale.
Nceda ufunde ukuba kutheni i-Amalgamated Bank inemigaqo-nkqubo eqinileyo yokungatyali okanye ukuvumela ukuthengiselana neenkampani zezixhobo zenyukliya, kwaye kutheni ikubona kulungile, inoxanduva kwaye inenzuzo kuwo onke ama-akhawunti. Isixeko saseNew York sinokuzingca ngebhanki yokuqala yase-US ukukhokela ngale ndlela: https://www.amalgamatedbank.com/blog/divesting-warfare

Ikomiti edibeneyo yeHolo yesiXeko saseNew York malunga neNyukliya yeNyukliya kunye nokuHanjiswa kwabantu ngoJanuwari 29, 2020 (Umfanekiso nguDavd Andersson)
Ngomhla wokuvota, nge-22 kaJuni, sifuna uMlawuli oPhetheyo, uSodolophu kunye neBhunga ukuba livakalise kwaye landise la maxabiso kunye nale modeli kwidolophu yethu.
Ngaba izixhobo zenyukliya zibaluleke kakhulu ngeli xesha lobunzima likaCovid? Kunjalo! Oku kuhlala kungaphelelanga nje ekubeni ngumcimbi wobomi nokufa okufuphi, kodwa ukungahoyi ngabom kusitha iimali eziphambili ngokubaluleka kwiimfuno zesixeko sethu. Abahlali be-NYC iirhafu zodwa bahlawula iibhiliyoni kwimizi-mveliso eyimfihlo yezixhobo. Uhlala ungumba ofakwe kwingqondo eqhelekileyo. Yintshukumo ebalulekileyo ukuba xa uphumelele uya kuba nefuthe elihle, elihle kwisixeko sethu, kwilizwe nakwilizwe liphela. Iyakumisa inkunkuma.
Isigqibo se-0976-2019 sinokukunceda kuphela ukuvusa, ukukhokela kunye nokufundisa abameli bethu. Ibonisa ubunkokheli bokwenene kumaxesha anzima, kwaye ityale ikamva lethu. Ayichaphazeli nje inkohliso eyoyikisayo yeshishini, kodwa ibonisa umanyano noluntu lonke. Imele ubuhlanga obunzulu ngobuqhetseba beshishini, kwaye iya kuba yinto ephambili kuxanduva lwethu lokuthintela ukuhlengahlengiswa ngaphaya kwentshabalalo eyintlekele. Ingqamana nesinye isisombululo esifanelekileyo seBhunga esifuna ukuhambisa imali kunye nengqondo yethu kwezomkhosi, siye kwizisombululo ezinesidima kunye nokuziphatha kunye neziphumo, isisombululo se-747-A.
NgoJanuwari 28, 2020, egcwele iHolo yesiXeko kwiNdibano yoLuntu kwiDanny Dromm Res. I-0976 yangqina ukuba i-NYC iphinde ikulungele ukukhokelela ekubuyiseleni umdyarho weengalo zenyukliya ebaleke ngokupheleleyo, ugqatso ngeli xesha amajelo osasazo aphambili eendaba engazihoyiyo, egcina abemi bengazi.
Ubunkokeli ngokufanelekileyo abubizeli kuphela ukwahlulwa kodwa ukuxhasa ixesha elidlulileyo, iSivumelwano sembali sokuThintelwa kwezixhobo zenyukliya.
Inye kuphela kumawaka ezixhobo zenyukliya kwizilumkiso zokubangela iinwele ziya kuthi ngemizuzu ziguqule konke, konke esikuthandayo, ukuxabisa, konke esikwaziyo, sonke, kuthuthu. Njengo Mongameli u-Eisenhower ngo-1960 edume ngokubeka isenzi kolu shishino, “ubusela”, obu “busela” bezixhobo zingenakubalwa, iiseti zezakhono kunye neemali zenzeka ngelixa sisokola ukunceda amashishini amancinci aphile, ukuhlawulela impendulo ye-Covid kunye nokhathalelo lonyango, cenga ubulungisa izindlu, imfundo elungileyo, iziseko zophuhliso ezifunekayo, ukunyuka ukuya kumngcipheko wemozulu / umngeni kwindalo esingqongileyo, kunye nohlaziyo oluninzi lwezopolitiko / lwezentlalo olusibizayo.
ILungu leBhunga lezithili zam, omnye wabokuqala ukusayina kwesi sigqibo ngu-CM Carlina Rivera. Xa ebuzwa kwiinyanga ezidlulileyo, uya kuthi, "Ewe, masibize ivoti! Le ayisiyongqondo. ”
Ikhonkco kwisisombululo kunye nokuva liqukethe ukurekhodwa kwevidiyo yobungqina bomlomo, kunye nefayile ye .pdf yazo zonke iziphakamiso ezibhaliweyo:
Kule nyanga iphelileyo ngomhla we-11 kuFebruwari, kumboniso we-WNYC uBrian Lehrer Show, uSomlomo uJohnson uphendule ngendlela exakayo kumnxeba kunye nenkuthazo yokuhamba ngale ndlela: “Ndiyasixhasa [isisombululo] nge-100%, ... IBhunga lesiXeko saseNew York linobunzima kwimicimbi yamanye amazwe…. Ngalo mzuzu kaCovid, besigxile kakhulu kwinto ebisenzeka apha kwi-NYC…. Ndicinga nje ukuba umbuzo… ingaba oku kusibekela umzekelo wokuba siqhubeke nokuhamba ngezisombululo ezingaphandle kolawulo lwequmrhu lowiso-mthetho lendawo…. ”
Iqela likaBrian Lehrer laqhakamshelana namaxesha ambalwa ukuze bacele ukulandela isithembiso sikaCorey kumdlalo oza kuthetha noDanny. Akukho namnye uphendule ngokuthe ngqo.
Ngokuphathelele impendulo kaCorey, masibekele bucala umbuzo wokuba ingaba ukubhujiswa kobomi babantu emhlabeni yingxaki yalapha okanye eyamazwe aphesheya. Inyaniso ngelaa xesha lalowo ubizo lukaFebruwari, uphononongo olukhawulezileyo ngenene lwafumana amanye amanyathelo alishumi elinesithandathu e-NY City Hall abandakanya "imiba yamanye amazwe" ngexesha leCovid.
Isixeko saseNew York sinembali ende kunye neqhayiya "yokujonga ubunzima kwimicimbi yezizwe ngezizwe." Elinye inyathelo elinxulumene nathi eliyalelayo yayiliBhunga elalifuna ukwahlulwa kwiinkampani ezenza ushishino eMzantsi Afrika — njengoko iNkqubo yoMhlala-phantsi yabaSebenzi yaseNew York yenzayo ngo-1984 — kwaye yayiyinto ebalulekileyo ekuweni korhulumente wengcinezelo. Ukwahlulwa kwe-fossil fuel apho uScott Stringer efumana ithuba lokuxhoma umnqwazi wakhe, ikwangumbandela wehlabathi.
Umzimba womthetho wesixeko wazise kwaye wapasisa ngaphezulu kweshumi kwisigqibo ngaphezulu kwamashumi eminyaka ngokukodwa kwiingozi ezinkulu kunye nenkunkuma yezixhobo eziyimfuneko kugqatso lwezixhobo zenyukliya.
Ukusukela ngo-1963 ukuya kowe-1990 kuphela, isiXeko sethu sakhokela izizwe kwi-ajenda yokuziphatha ngezigqibo ezili-15 ze-NYC ezazifuna ukuphela komdyarho wezixhobo zenyukliya. Babize "amaqela otshaba" ukuba axoxisane endaweni yoko, ukuba babuye umva kule ngozi inkulu kunye nokuchitha kobutyebi bethu. Xa uMongameli uJohn F. Kennedy waqhekeza umkhenkce kwiMfazwe Yomlomo ebiza izixhobo zokuqala zenyukliya i-Test Ban Treaty, iBhunga le-NYC alithandabuzi mzuzwana ukulixhasa ngesisombululo. Ukuvinjelwa kwakhe yayiza kuba linyathelo lokuqala lokuthintela ngokupheleleyo izixhobo. Zonke izizwe zazikhona kwi-UN General Assembly ukuba ngo-Septemba 1963 njengoko abameli baqhuma ngokuqhwaba ngokukhawuleza xa uJFK wayethetha ngako. Abantu bahlala bekulungele.
