Urge NYS Reps to Enact Rent Relief for Small Businesses
(Español abajo)
We are facing the catastrophic loss of thousands of small and micro businesses, the economic and social cornerstones of our communities.
New York is on PAUSE, but the bills have not paused. The rent has not paused. NOTHING has paused except our ability to survive. Without rent relief, untold numbers of storefronts will shutter. For good. Communities will lose vast numbers of jobs, essential services, vitality and more.
We will lose the very fabric of our city.
We are urging our NYS representatives to pass emergency rent relief legislation that ensures small businesses, landlords, and government share in this hardship together.

Estamos frente a la pérdida catastrófica de miles de pequeñas y micro empresas, que son los pilares económicos y sociales de nuestras comunidades.
Nueva York está en PAUSA, pero las facturas de pagar no se han detenido. El alquiler no se ha detenido. NADA se ha detenido excepto nuestra capacidad de sobrevivir. Sin alivio de la renta, se cerrarán innumerables cantidades de escaparates. Las comunidades perderán una gran cantidad de empleos, servicios esenciales, vitalidad y más.
