2025 Legislative Session Recap & Reflections

We reflect back about what we were proud to see passed this session, what challenges they faced, what we heard from our constituents. We shared about the fight for housing, passing updates to the Covenant Homeownership Act and finally passing the Rent Stabilization bill, protecting workers, especially young people, and working together to help give workers the chance to secure a better future, and passing a budget that invested in food, shelter, and health for those who need it the most. And we reflect back on the value of hearing from constituents, and why it is so important for constituents to make their voices heard and to advocate for the issues that are impacting them at home.
