Ms. Gizmo went underground into a busy passageway between the Atlantic and Pacific Street subway stations in Brooklyn. What is Ms Gizmo? She’s a way for us to say how we would like our tax dollars spent. We ask people to distribute 20 pennies among these eight categories:
- Arts & Culture
- Education
- Environment & Clean Energy
- Health Care
- Housing
- Jobs
- Military
- Transportation

How did New Yorkers vote?
The message was clear:
Money for Jobs, Education, Housing, and Healthcare – Not for War.
The War Resisters League flyer of federal discretionary spending
shows how our money is really being spent.
We’ve got work to do.
Happy New Year! See you in the streets in 2012.
