On this holiday weekend, thousands and thousands of New Yorkers who applied for relief funding from New York State await their pending requests.
Due to the significant demand from working class New Yorkers, the State has stopped accepting new applications. Governor Hochul recently asked the federal government for almost $1 billion in additional funding for rent relief.
As we continue to organize for rent relief and to make the excluded workers fund a permanent one that is replicated all over the country, we continue to need your help. Here are a few ways your donation helps us build power:
$20 a month helps hire interpreters to hold bilingual meetings
$50 a month helps coordinate relief fund application support for tens of excluded workers and renters
$100 a month helps put an organizer in the field for an entire week
Thank you and happy holidays from our family to yours.
