Thank you, Chair Joseph, for standing with us earlier this week to call on the Administration to fund and baseline critical education programs!
Proud to be here this morning with our education advocates and Council Member De La Rosa as we rally for investment in our city’s education system.

Grateful for @CMCrystalHudson’s leadership! We stand with AgeStrong NYC in calling on City Leaders to ensure every senior has access to affordable housing, food, & the support they deserve. Investing in aging services is investing in dignity & care for older New Yorkers.
We need to make bold investments in aging services this year to make sure our city can guarantee older New Yorkers a place in their community and affordable housing, food, and care. Thank you @CMCrystalHudson for your partnership. https://t.co/ZNQHC2Sc09

As the State plans to change the Foundation Aid formula, which is how school districts are funded across the State, it was good to see @NYCMayor @NYCSpeakerAdams, @NYCSpeakerAdams, @JustinBrannan, @NYCComptroller, @DOEChancellor ...
The proposed changes to the NYS Foundation Aid formula would result in NYC schools getting $350M less than they otherwise would. Good to see @NYCMayor @NYCSpeakerAdams @JustinBrannan @NYCComptroller @DOEChancellor raising concerns about this proposal.

The Coalition for Equitable Education Funding responds to @NYCMayor's preliminary budget, which fails to sustain key education programs, such as Early Childhood Education & Community Schools, that are supported by expiring city funds & does not make future investments needed.
To make NYC the best place to raise a family, we must have excellent schools where students get the support they need to thrive. The Coalition for Equitable Education Funding calls on @NYCMayor to commit to sustaining programs whose $ will expire in June.

We’re joining 120+ orgs to call on @NYCMayor to sustain impactful education programs funded with one-year city dollars scheduled to expire in June – including Pre-K, summer programming, immigrant family outreach and more!

A coalition is putting pressure on the mayor ahead of his preliminary budget proposal.

The @ymcanyc was honored to host the Governor and her team earlier this week as they announced this critical support for New York City and New York State families.
I promised to put money in your pockets, New York, and here’s one way we’re going to do it: Increase the child tax credit from $330 to $1,000 per child, and expand it to more families. Have two kids under four? That could be up to $2,000 in your pocket.
