Committees
We’re currently have five main committees, through which we take action:
- ANTI-GENTRIFICATION
We have worked particularly to repudiate spot rezoning that developers are attempting to use to build new buildings whose higher rents will force up rents throughout the area - FAIR ELECTIONS
UPA is part of the Fair Elections for NY Coalition, working to replace corporate influence on elections with a small donor matching system that amplifies the voices of the 99% - PEACE AND JUSTICE
The Peace and Justice Committee organizes film screenings with discussion and other community events to promote understanding of progressive values. - SINGLE PAYER HEALTH CARE
We are working hard to pass the NY Health Act for universal publicly funded single payer healthcare for all residents of NYS – as well as working for national Medicare for All - UPTOWN4BERNIE
Home for all those working for #Bernie2020!
Members also work on many other issues, such as Immigration, Climate, Criminal Justice, Human Rights, and Foreign Policy, so if you have a passion for something else and would like to form a committee, that’s great! Propose one at any general meeting or by notifying the Steering Committee.
