Make the Road New York made a remarkable transition last year by passing the baton to three new co-executive directors. Each brings a set of unique experiences. Jose Lopez is a policy expert on housing and renters’ rights; Arlenis Morel led the effort to build out the organization’s office infrastructure; and Theo Oshiro expanded its reach into Westchester and New Jersey. Despite the U.S. Senate parliamentarian ruling in September against a provision to include a pathway for citizenship for immigrants in the Build Back Better Act, Lopez said that Make the Road New York remained optimistic about ultimately achieving that goal.
