Billionaires in New York State have seen their wealth ballon by hundreds of billions of dollars since the pandemic began.

Friends -

Millions of New Yorkers have lost their jobs, are struggling with food insecurity, or are worried about whether they'll be evicted when some of the tenant protections we've passed expire this year.

But COVID-19 hasn't been so difficult for everyone...

Billionaires in New York State have seen their wealth balloon by hundreds of billions of dollars since the pandemic began.

And it's time for them to pay their fair share to help New Yorkers survive this crisis. Add your name if you agree:

Sign my petition calling on the legislature to pass and Governor Cuomo to support the Invest in Our New York Act to generate $50 billion in revenue to help our communities survive the pandemic and thrive in its aftermath.

Unsurprisingly, Governor Cuomo's proposal is far from sufficient.

That is why I gathered with a number of community leaders and elected officials, including AOC, in the Bronx last week to send a clear message that it is time to tax the rich in New York State.

Here's me speaking at the event:

Let's be honest, this growing inequality did not start during the pandemic — it has been going on for a long time. What is unique is the level of human suffering right now.

The wealthy have had it very well for a very long time, and they'll continue to do just fine when they start paying their fair share.

This isn't just about a budget deficit. This is about building a better future for ALL of New York.

The budget process starts in March, and we all need to make our voices heard.

Sign my petition calling on the legislature to pass and Governor Cuomo to support the Invest in Our New York Act to generate $50 billion in revenue to help our communities survive the pandemic and thrive in its aftermath.

Thank you for signing,

Alessandra Biaggi
