: 🌍🧹 “The Filth Stops Here” — JSA2026 Clean Streets & Civic Responsibility Act

Because Even If Climate Change Is a Hoax… We Still Deserve a BETTR New York

Let’s be honest — whether or not you believe the climate crisis is real, there’s no excuse for the state of our streets. From 5th Avenue to Harlem, from Buffalo to Brentwood, trash lines the sidewalks, rats run the alleys, graffiti spreads like cancer, and public bathrooms? Nonexistent or a nightmare.

🚨 This Is a Public Decency Emergency

• Illegal dumping everywhere — zero accountability.
• Vagrancy and vandalism ignored or excused.
• Rats taking over housing projects and subway stations.
• Vacant buildings rotting through entire blocks like tumors.

🛠️ The JSA2026 Plan for a Cleaner, BETTR New York

1. Clean Team Mobilization

• State-funded cleanup crews using re-entry workers, jobless youth, and volunteers.
• All 62 counties must participate — no exceptions.

2. Graffiti Crackdown & Mural Alternatives

• First-time offenders clean their own mess. Second-time offenders face community service minimums.
• Grants for community-sanctioned mural walls in high-traffic areas — beautify legally or don’t tag at all.

3. Vacant Property and Vehicle Seizure Program

• Fast-track process to reclaim abandoned homes, storefronts, and cars left rotting on curbs.
• Use seized properties for housing, gardens, or local businesses — community chooses the future.

4. Statewide Sanitation Enforcement Blitz

• Increased fines for littering, neglect, and illegal dumping — enforced with photo/video submissions from the public.
• Public dashboard with map of violations and resolutions. No more coverups.

5. Rat Task Force

• Target rat havens with industrial extermination plans, not useless slogans.
• Hold landlords and municipalities accountable for infestations.

6. Empire State Cleanup Week

• Annual volunteer week with school credit, tax perks, and public recognition for civic service.
• Live tracker: most trash collected by district gets bragging rights and budget bonus.

🧼 Because It’s Not About the Climate. It’s About Dignity.

We may disagree on carbon emissions, but we can all agree New Yorkers deserve clean streets, functioning infrastructure, and pride in where we live. JSA2026 won’t wait for a green new deal — we’ll make a clean one.
