In 2025, New York City decides its future. As we face unprecedented assaults on HIV/AIDS funding, public and sexual health, LGBTQ+ rights, immigrant communities, and basic freedoms nationwide — every progressive piece of legislation that we can advocate for this year to strengthen support for our communities will be crucial. Additionally, this year’s mayoral election will act as a referendum on Trump and the entire MAGA backlash we are living through. Will we face the next four years with a leadership that defends New York’s identity as a diverse sanctuary for all — or a mayor that sells us out to Trump?

This emergency town hall is a space to strategize, mobilize, and build power across movements. Whether through direct action or policy change, inside pressure or outside resistance, we must forge the alliances needed to secure a future where New York stands as a sanctuary for all — people living with HIV/AIDS, refugees and immigrants, queer and trans people, people of color, people living with chronic illnesses, and every community under threat.

The stakes are high. The time to organize is now.
