We need clean air, not corporate lobbyists' wishlists!
That's the message 25 environmental and civic groups delivered yesterday to @SpeakerMenin and the @NYCCouncil--reject Intro. 561-A and stop harming our air.
Thanks to @NYLPI @NRDC for their powerful testimony as well!

Huge show of solidarity by clean air advocates at the council hearings of a law that would gut the idling program. It lasted until 4:45 pm ! Really uplifting. @NY_Clean_Air
Now 25 groups oppose Intro. 561-A's threat to our air quality. @SpeakerMenin needs to listen and PULL THE BILL.
Thanks to @RidersAlliance @350brooklyn @TransAlt @foodandwater @ReinventAlbany @NYPIRG @Chekpeds @StreetsPAC @airnyc @Queens_Climate nycair.org/memo

This bill is absurd. If anything we should be increasing enforcement but weakening the current idling regulations.

Twenty-five environmental & civic groups are standing together to oppose the deadly bill Intro. 561-A that @SpeakerMenin is insisting get a hearing this Tuesday.
This is the same move @Josh4Jersey is trying in Congress: poison New York's kids for corporate $$$. @AOC @NYCMayor

This is rich, coming from you. You are ignoring the ENTIRE COMMUNITY that is telling you not to sideline the environmental whistleblowers.
Twenty-four environmental & civic groups agree: Intro. 561-A is a deadly threat to New York's air quality. nycair.org/memo
But @SpeakerMenin is pushing this industry-backed bill (with zero cosponsors) towards hearing on Tuesday.

Don’t you dare break what works. We depend on it to breathe.
Big thanks to @Chekpeds and @NYC_SafeStreets plus many others for supporting the Citizens Air Complaint Program. @NYCWater should take note--this program is really popular!

It’s 🍌s. I can eat my veggies & exercise but I can’t choose the air I breathe in NYC. Why weaken enforcement against idling trucks? @SpeakerMenin, please oppose Intro 561-A. NYers deserve clean air @KamillahMHanks @CMJustinSanchez @HarveyforNY @CMRestler @CMAlexaAviles

It is WILD to me that the most effective & moneymaking way that NYC has to clean up the city's air is about to be undercut by our own city government. Please @SpeakerMenin do what is best for our city and keep the Citizens Idling Program. @CMCrystalHudson @OsseChi

Who wants to protect New Yorkers' clean air? TWENTY environmental groups, including the latest @Earthjustice.
They all agree: @SpeakerMenin needs to STOP doing the trucking industry's dirty work by pushing Intro. 561-A forward. Learn more: nycair.org/memo

After more than 350,000 successful civilian-generated idling tickets, this program really works! But will @NYCMayor stand up to defend our air against the trucking lobby? Intro. 561-A is up for hearing NEXT WEEK and the silence from @NYCWater is deafening.
“New Yorkers are some of the most passionate people in the world and I hope they will join me in turning off their engines. SHUT IT OFF NEW YORK!”

Remember when @NYCCouncil and @NYCWater actually defended our air quality?
Why is Speaker @JulieMenin *insisting* that the dangerous Intro. 561-A get a hearing, when it will legalize *all diesel engine idling*?
And where is the DEP leadership on this issue?
Yaaas 🙌. @TPIRhost (Drew Carey) and @aishatyler nailed it with some #BillyNeverIdles trivia on @MillionaireTV. (We bet they also love drinking NYC tap water 💦.)🎬 Final answer? Turn off the engine. Save 💵. Save lives. nyc.gov/billyneveridles

Thank you for this wonderful campaign to promote the hugely successful Citizens Air Complaint Program. It's a real shame Speaker Menin is listening the truck and bus lobbyists who want to kill it... nycair.org/memo
I still can’t believe our quirky little anti-idling campaign became such a phenomenon!

Speaker @JulieMenin seems intent on drastically increasing air pollution in NYC with Intro 561-A no matter what the adults in the room say. There’s more to life than trucking lobbyist approval, Speaker.
