September 24, 2015 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
  • This event has passed.

Help us tell Mayor de Blasio & NYPD Commissioner Bratton that violating the rights of homeless people is extra hypocritical while welcoming a champion of the poor like Pope Francis, and has got to stop!

Click here for memes and images you can use, and check out these sample tweets:

Forcibly removing homeless from public space violates all faith traditions, @BilldeBlasio & @CommissBratton. @Pontifex would not approve.

Homeless people need #HousingNotHandcuffs. Investing in real solutions urgently needed from moral & economic perspectives. @Pontifex @pthny

.@BilldeBlasio NYPD actions re: homeless inconsistent w progressive values, Catholic doctrine, human decency. #HandsOffTheHomeless @Pontifex

Hey @BilldeBlasio, please tell @Pontifex about NYPD campaign of homeless harassment. We think he’ll have a lot to say. #HandsOffTheHomeless

.@BilldeBlasio quotes @Pontifex to critique others, while abusing the homeless in ways Pope has explicitly condemned. #HandsOffTheHomeless

Hypocrisy: @BilldeBlasio & @CommissBratton posing 4 cameras w @Pontifex tho he’d be most upset w/them if he knew how they treat NYC homeless

.@BarackObama criticized “forced dispersal” of homeless; @Pontifex preaches compassion. NYC criminalizes homeless people – THIS MUST STOP.

Criminalizing homeless people is neither Christian nor moral, @BilldeBlasio. Just ask @Pontifexwhen you see him. #HandsOffTheHomeless

“Measure of the greatness of a society is found in the way it treats those most in need”- @Pontifex. So @BilldeBlasio: #HousingNotHandcuffs!
