CUFFH

Congratulations to on her victory in yesterday’s NJ-11 special election! We’re excited to see a new generation of working-class leadership heading to Washington and ready to take on the fight for affordability. We look forward to working together to deliver fair housing for all.

Join CUFFH and the Debt Justice Alliance this Saturday at the SOMOS conference for a panel discussion on how vulture funds are using our court system to extract billions.

We’ll hear from Jessica Gonzalez-Rojas, Michael Kink, Karines Reyes, Jose Gonzalez, and Melissa Mark-Viverito on how NY can stand up and fight back against these predatory institutions.

Moderated by CUFFH Executive Director and Co-Founder Rob Solano!

CUFFH showed up and showed out.

We help lead and stood with thousands in the largest protest in NYC history—fighting for people over billionaires and democracy over autocracy.

This is what democracy looks like and we’re proud to stand up for everyday people in our community.

We were proud to join the 1199 Housing Forum and share the work we’re doing at CUFFH to support tenants and strengthen our communities.

It was an honor to connect with members, provide information about our services, and stand alongside partners committed to housing justice. Together, we’re building power, protecting tenants’ rights, and making sure our communities have the resources they deserve. ✊🏽🏠
Thank you to everyone who stopped by to learn more and to the organizers for bringing people together for such an important conversation!

Yesterday, CUFFH was present at the Rental Ripoff Hearing in the Bronx. 🏢✊🏾

As reminds us, “The most powerful tenants are the ones who know their rights and are connected to their neighbors.”

We’re proud to stand alongside tenants across the city to demonstrate our collective power and demand real accountability. Thank you to our coalition partners who made this hearing possible and who continue to hold the new mayoral administration accountable to those who gave them that power — the people. ✊🏽🏠

Today we showed up strong in Albany for the CARE4IF Lobby Day!🏛️✊🏽

Advocates, community members, and organizers came together to meet with legislators and push for a full $175 million investment for the Office of New Americans (ONA) in the FY27 budget With the Assembly and Senate one-house budgets already meeting our ask, today was about making sure this funding stays in the final budget and does not get negotiated down.

We had powerful conversations with AM Jo Anne Simon ( ), AM Latrice Walker ( Sen. Zellnor Myrie ( ), AD Maritza Davila (), AM Claire Valdez (), and AM Marcela Mitaynes ()**, lifting up the needs of immigrant communities across New York. Thank you to these leaders and their teams for taking the time to meet with us and discuss the importance of sustaining this critical investment.

Special thanks to AM Mitaynes, AM Claire Valdez for their leadership and partnership, and to all of the organizers, advocates, and community members who made today possible. 💙

We had a successful and energizing day of advocacy, reminding our elected officials that immigrant communities deserve resources, protection, and opportunities to thrive. Now we keep the pressure on to ensure the full $175 million for the Office of New Americans - along with the ARA and BUILD Acts— makes it into the final budget.

When we organize together,our voices are impossible to ignore.
