Dear John,

New York is on the verge of real change, and ALIGN is at the center of it.

We’ve been appointed to Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s worker justice transition team. This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of our city.

Zohran won on a mandate for a more affordable and sustainable New York City. And for years, ALIGN has been fighting for some of the very policies New Yorkers just voted for, from Green, Healthy Schools to a $30 minimum wage.

Now, it’s our duty to make sure those promises become a reality, with workers and community at the table. 

This year, we saw what is possible when workers, community groups, environmental justice leaders, and labor unions come together with one purpose: to build a more just and sustainable New York. In 2025, we:

• Delivered protections to keep warehouse and retail workers safe on the job;

• Won $1 billion for climate in New York’s State budget;

• Released new data that proves investing in green energy for NYC schools will create 300k+ jobs, reduce pollution, and improve student learning;

• Pressured the City to improve our waste systems for cleaner air and safer streets.

Your support makes these victories possible! Every win we had this year was because of people like you who believe in worker power, climate justice, and what we can achieve when we act together.

When you donate, you strengthen our coalitions and help ensure we keep winning. 

In solidarity,

Theodore Moore

Executive Director
