New York, keep calling your NY Senator and Assemblymember! Hearing that some are still on the fence about whether to add anti-mask legislation to the state budget! Masks should not be banned, criminalized, or stigmatized.

The 30-second ad will be shown this week on cable TV and digital platforms.

The campaign comes as New York Governor Kathy Hochul attempts to pass the legislation with the state budget.

The New York branch of the American Civil Liberties Union put out a statement this month that called the legislation a “mask ban” and claimed it would “open the floodgates to disproportionate enforcement.”

Mask ban lobbyists announced another 6-figure campaign to drum up support for their "popular" proposal. They call concerns "misinformation" but have yet to address any. How can the NYPD know whose mask is “legitimate”? How can they judge someone's intent without bias?

Grateful to have access to vaccines right now (for now) & very scared of the consequences of a violently anti-vax government threatening our futures.

Vaccines are a critical public health strategy we cannot afford to lose.

Keep vaxxing, keep masking, keep caring.

Just got my 6 month COVID vaccine booster 💉

Reminder to people w/ compromised immune systems & anyone else recommended to get a second 2024-2025 dose:
If you were vaxxed anytime in Sept, it has been 6 mo now.

You can still get boosters from most retail pharmacies!

Mask up, get vaxxed, & rest!

NY, hope you’ll join me in leaving voicemails today for our NY State Senator, Assemblymember, Senate Majority Leader, Assembly Speaker, and Governor urging them not to pass any type of anti-mask legislation in the state budget! Masks should NOT be criminalized. #NoNYMaskBan

We’ll say it again: Criminalizing masks does not make New Yorkers safer.

In reality, it puts our health at risk, opens the floodgates for racist enforcement, threatens to exile some people with disabilities from society, and undermines protections for protestors.
