Another PPL disaster: They've created an Oct 1 deadline for hundreds of thousands home care workers to get physicals - or lose their jobs. Now clinics are overwhelmed, workers are driving hours to get appts, & CDPAP consumers are at risk of losing caregivers - all b/c of PPL.

CAUGHT ON CAMERA: PPL CEO Miki Kapoor promises to meet with CDPAP consumer Milagros Franco "tomorrow" Off camera, minutes later, he backs out - and calls her disrespectful This is how private equity works— Make the promise publicly, break it privately ⬇️ TAKE ACTION BELOW

OUR STATEMENT ON SENATE INVESTIGATION INTO PPL TRANSITION: “We applaud Senators @JamesSkoufis and @NYSenatorRivera for demanding accountability on the failed PPL transition. After ten months of chaos—200k workers driven from one of NY’s most essential home care programs, broken

@GustavoRiveraNY @JamesSkoufis thank you for being obsessed - nothing weird about it- with the safety and well being of older & disabled NYers and home care workers, and trying to safeguard our taxpayer dollars from @GovKathyHochul giving them away to her private equity friends.

Why is @GovKathyHochul weirdly obsessed with avoiding accountability for a program where over 100k home care workers haven’t been paid? What’s weird is her giving our taxpayer dollars to a failed out-of-state private equity corporation. @NYSenatorRivera @JamesSkoufis

Now @GovKathyHochul is trying to silence critics of the failing PPL transition, retaliating against @JamesSkoufis and vetoing a bill that would make government records more transparent. If there's nothing to hide, why obstruct accountability? https://t.co/voGnjxcj1p

We and members of the press been calling to release PPL’s conversations w/ @NYGOVHealth about the rigged CDPAP plan for months - and gotten crickets. Now @govkathyhochul is making it even harder to FOIL public records. What is she hiding??

Advocate and home care consumer, Jo Brand, addressed NY legislators on the personal cost of PPL to her and her caregivers. She makes a powerful case for why we must end the PPL monopoly and #SaveCDPAP NOW! #CareNotCorruption

Thank you, @CaringMRising, for having on the panel to ask @LtGovDelgado very impt question about PPL’s untenable monopoly on #CDPAP in NYS! Thank you, Lt Gov Delgado for your time listening to our stories and questions, but more importantly, for your ardent support. #SaveCDPAP

🔥POWER!!!🔥 100+ Caring Majority advocates + @LtGovDelgado discuss the fight to defend care in NY & #SaveCDPAP! "Caring Majority, thanks for your persistence. That we're handing over CDPAP to private equity is VERY flawed... We must cancel PPL's contract & restore trusted FIs."

"I now worry every day if I can financially sustain staying in our home & keep us together. I worry because Sarah is now at risk of losing the ability to remain in her home and community where she is happiest and thriving. This is what keeps me awake at night." Powerful

We’ve requested a meeting w/ @MikiKapoor and gotten crickets. If PPL is so concerned about supporting workers, it should meet with them directly - not spin the truth in the media.

KAPOOR: "We've been combating widespread misinfo, incl. from those who benefited financially" FACT: PPL is dismissing legitimate criticism from the people who are most impacted - CDPAP workers and consumers - while its private equity owners make bank https://t.co/ehuZGo1YDx

KAPOOR: "It's simply not true there was anything that resembled bid rigging" FACT: Laughably untrue. PPL’s name was in early budget drafts. Under oath, PPL denied they'd been involved in pre-budget conversations - then walked those statements back. https://t.co/ptGU5LhnS5

KAPOOR: "We're proud to offer consistent benefits... incl health ins" FACT: PPL is forcing workers into health plans that exclude basic coverage like hospital visits, making the "benefit" unusable - while letting PPL skim millions off of worker wages. https://t.co/LkJhOspupV

KAPOOR: "Call times are down to <3 mins" FACT: Call times don't matter when workers can't get their issues solved. Workers are getting contradictory instructions & reps who don’t get their cases - b/c PPL isn't providing them w/ proper training. https://t.co/LtvSEU0qx8

KAPOOR: "All PAs who are properly enrolled…are paid on time" FACT: Our surveys show more than 1/2 of CDPAP workers still aren't being paid accurately. It’s insulting for PPL to blame workers for their own failures. https://t.co/u9h9Gd95FT

CORRECTING THE RECORD: PPL’s new CEO @mikikapoor made a series of false claims about the company’s mismanagement of CDPAP in a @politicony interview yesterday. Here are the facts he conveniently left out:

@HiHemployers @NYAIL

ALERT 🚨 As we've been warning: @HealthNYGov has arbitrarily made today the last day ALL CDPAP workers can schedule a health assessment: or risk losing their jobs. Given what a sh*t show PPL has been, we are hoping for the best and preparing for the worst. If you’re part of the
