Hi John,

?

Eager to delve into the details of this year's state budget negotiations? Join us for a budget debrief on Thursday, April 18, where we'll dissect its major takeaways. During the debrief, we'll zoom in on key areas impacting our communities: school funding, child care, and investments in working families.

With Governor Hochul repeatedly extending the budget deadline, housing has become the sticking point, revealing her prioritization of the ultra-wealthy and their special interests over New York's working families. As the legislature goes on a two-week break from April 17, it's crucial that we maintain pressure and stay informed as leaders make their final decisions leading up to an enacted budget.

?

Save the date for April 18 to dissect the final budget together. Your understanding of these key takeaways will be essential to our ongoing collective commitments to equity and the common good. In case of any budget delays, we'll reschedule for the following week. Please share out the flyer below to spread the word about this event.

Let's make sure our voices count where it matters most!

In solidarity,

?
