David vs Goliath Help NYC Homeowners FIGHT!
What’s Happening
New York City homeowners are being crushed by laws written for corporations, not communities. While the hotel lobby and Airbnb fight for dominance, small homeowners—real people—are being stripped of their rights and labeled as landlords by a city government prioritizing profit over people.
🏪 Financial devastation
🚫 Government overreach
🛑 Enforcement laws meant for illegal hotels are targeting families
Why We’re Fighting
We are New York Homeowners Alliance, and we’ve crafted a legislative solution—Intro 948—that restores balance:
- ✔️ Protects small homeowners
- ✔️ Supports long- and short-term renters
- ✔️ Rebuilds local economies devastated by COVID and Local Law 18
- ✔️ Provides real oversight without overreach
Wasn’t this the original goal of Local Law 18? Because it’s failed—and New Yorkers are paying the price.
Who I Am
My name is Tony Lindsay, a Brooklyn homeowner, author, filmmaker, public speaker—and founder of NYHOA. I created this movement because I’ve lived the struggle firsthand. I’m not waiting for change—I’m building it.

Campaign Update: Thank You + Next Phase of the FightUpdate #1
June 9th, 2025
To our incredible supporters—
Thank you! Your generosity, your belief in justice, and your willingness to stand with us in this fight means more than words can express.
With your help, we’re building real momentum to get Intro 948—a fair and common-sense homeowner protection bill—to a hearing this September.
But the road ahead is not easy.
The legal, research, technical, and administrative costs required to fight back against powerful lobbyists and government overreach are extensive. And every single contribution—from $10 to $1,000—brings us one step closer to our goal.
This campaign isn’t just about a bill.
It’s about preserving the right to own and protect our homes.
It’s about ensuring that hardworking New Yorkers are not boxed out of the American Dream.
It’s about stopping the slow erosion of autonomy in favor of a permanent rental society where equity, ownership, and dignity are reserved for the wealthy and politically connected.
This is David vs. Goliath—and you’ve proven that David still has fight left.
✅ Here's how you can continue to make an impact:

And we will be heard.

Let’s keep pushing—together.
