🏙️ #Pittsburgh Mayor #EdGainey will not sign council’s $693M budget — but he won’t veto it either.

That means the 20% tax hike, the city’s first in over a decade, will take effect without his name on it.

“Good luck with that,” one councilman said. @triblive.bsky.social

Pittsburgh alert: do not let MAGA donors and operatives buy your city’s government. Vote for Ed Gainey in the mayoral primary and beat his MAGA-funded opponent.

Proud to know Barney Oursler, who wrote this, and to sit on the Mon Valley Unemployed Committee steering group with his leadership.

O'Connor is relying on voters not having long term memory when he makes a lot of his claims.

Re-elect #EdGainey for mayor of #pittsburgh

@1hoodpower.bsky.social sent letter to #mayorgainey #edwardgainey #edgainey #bobbywilson (District 1), #theresakailsmith (d2) #bobcharland (d3) #anthonycoghill (d4) #bobwarwick (d5) #daniellavelle (d6) #debgross (d7) #erikastrassburger (d8) #kharimosley (d9) to attend #harvard #walkabillity course

Looks like the message is getting through.

I published my piece on the MAGA-money influence in Pittsburgh’s mayoral race last night.

Today, it’s echoed in headlines—and by the mayor himself.

Truth has a way of catching on.
Pt 2 drops tonight.

I love our mayor #edgainey! He came out to the #Pittonkatonk music fest yesterday with @barb4pgh.bsky.social and gave Pete a proclamation. No sightings of the other guy...

We need to re-elect Ed Gainey.

Why I Disinvited Both Mayoral Candidates From the 2025 Political Q&A - Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents This was a tough decision. You, dear readers, deserve candidates who follow through on their commitment to answer questions. We see this NOT playing out every single day as federal elected officials…

Watch what they do, not what they say #EdGainey #CoreyOConnor #PaPrimary #Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey talks ICE, gun violence and tax-exempt nonprofits in Harrisburg The Pittsburgh mayor, who said the city will remain a "sanctuary city" despite President Donald Trump's plans to increase immigration enforcement, spoke to reporters and political observers on Monday.

ALSO, Gainey refused to cooperate with ICE if they come through Pittsburgh. Has my vote on that alone.

YINZERS: O'Connor is taking a lot of Trump money and using MAGA infrastructure to boost his chances in this upcoming mayoral election. PLEASE be aware of that before you vote in this primary.
