ACT UP Emergency Townhall

Join us for the ACT UP 2025 Emergency Town Hall

In 2025, New York City will decide its future. As we face unprecedented assaults on public 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’ll sell 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. Masks Required.
