Thanks to friends, neighbors, communities and volunteer marshals, we had a safe and fun March Against the Casino and Public Hearing!
Our Queens reps backed a casino at Citi Field, but they still don’t have a license. We need to keep up pressure so the state doesn’t grant one.
What can you do?

Anonymous trolls threatened violence against the family-friendly March Against the Casino.
It's been reported, so there may be more police, and also safety + deescalation support. Please do what feels safe for you.
But we won’t be intimidated. This march will be peaceful: full of music, bubbles, kids, and joy. Not a place for hate; a place for community power.
🚶♀️ Sunday Oct 5 · 1 PM
📍 Start: Corona Plaza → end at the Unisphere for a people’s hearing at 2:30 PMCome stand against Steve Cohen’s casino.

🚫🎰 NO CASINO IN OUR COMMUNITY! 🎰🚫
This Sunday, neighbors from Flushing, Corona, Jackson Heights, East Elmhurst, Elmhurst and beyond are coming together to say LOUD AND CLEAR:
Public land is for the PEOPLE — not for billionaire casinos.
We refuse to gamble away our:
✅ Parks
✅ Housing
✅ Transit access
✅ Local small businesses
✅ FutureA casino will not bring “opportunity.” It will bring traffic, addiction, displacement, and harm to working-class immigrant neighborhoods that already carry more than our share.
📢 Join us in the streets!
🗓 Sunday October 5 at 1pm

Jackson Heights Indivisible as part of the FED-UP Coalition has been fighting against the Citi Field casino proposal all year. With the public hearings over, we're gearing up for...
🥁MARCH AGAINST THE CASINO🥁
📆 Sunday, October 5th
⏰ 1 PM
📍 Meet at Corona Plaza…
🌐 March to Flushing Meadows Corona Park Unisphere for THE PEOPLE’S PUBLIC HEARING!This month our neighbors were cheated out of their chance to speak against the Citi Field casino proposal. At two public hearings, lines were filled up with paid supporters, Hard Rock staff, and politicians while opposers were forced to wait. They ran out the clock so neighbors who wanted to object never got a turn. And when opposers called out this orchestration, they were threatened or thrown out under the fallacy of ‘disrespect’.
Join us to have your voice heard!

So gross. The Community Board chairperson is shilling for Queens Future, and playing favorites with people asking questions and giving testimonials.

Don't fall for the #okiedoke . For a scam to be successful, it relies on either the greed and/or desperation of the victim/mark. We have the desperation of thousands of citizens looking for a way to better their #economicconditions in this city as well as the greed of the few who think that today is the day they will strike it rich. Neither will find what they are looking for in this venture.
