REP. MALONEY PRAISES PASSAGE OF BIPARTISAN GUN LAW: While elected and community leaders were addressing Friday’s SCOTUS decision on abortion rights, U.S. Rep.

GOVERNOR LAUNCHES PUBLIC EDUCATION CAMPAIGN ON NY ABORTION RIGHTS: Following the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson that wound up also overturning the constitutional right to an abortion, Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Department of Health launched a, multi-platform, paid public education campaign to ensure New Yorkers — and all Americans —know that, in New York State, abortion remains safe, legal, and accessible.

“Prominent Brooklynites, in general, have angril “Prominent Brooklynites, in general, have angrily panned Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, which legalized abortion — a ruling that is expected to lead to abortion bans in half the states. Both supporters and opponents of legalized abortion predicted that the fight will continue in state capitols, in Washington and at the ballot box.” Read the rest of our “Brooklyn slams Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade” article, which is linked in our bio.
“The Supreme Court has ended constitutional prot “The Supreme Court has ended constitutional protections for abortion that had been in place nearly 50 years in a decision by its conservative majority to overturn Roe v. Wade. Friday’s outcome is expected to lead to abortion bans in roughly half the states. The decision, unthinkable just a few years ago, was the culmination of decades of efforts by abortion opponents, made possible by an emboldened right side of the court that has been fortified by three appointees of former President Donald Trump.” Continue reading our “Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade; states can ban abortion” article, which is linked in the bio.
“The sun shined brightly as Cadman Park Conserva “The sun shined brightly as Cadman Park Conservancy hosted its Juneteenth celebration on Sunday. The event featured poetry readings by Jacqueline Johnson, Deirdre Van Walters and Cassandra Cato-Louis. Johnson and Van Walters recited original poetry.

After an extensive search, BWE was connected to the Calfa brothers, owners of Lassen and Hennigs and the space at 137 Montague, by Erika Belsey Worth of the BHA.
