Time-Sensitive Action: $2B Needed to Save At Risk NY School Programs

Hi Ashley, Did you know that students across New York are at risk of losing essential services and programs as federal COVID-era funding comes to an end in June, unless New York State steps up? The urgency is clear - our schools desperately need the state budget to include $2 billion to bridge this fiscal gap. As the State Senate and Assembly get ready to release their one house budget proposals next week, now is our critical moment to push for change. Email Senate Leader Stewart-Cousins, Speaker Heastie, and your state legislators right away. Tell them the Senate and Assembly proposals must include a $2 billion investment in our public education system, ensuring our students don't suffer the consequences of inaction. Join us in demanding this vital $2 billion to safeguard our kids' access to essential services and programs in their schools. Act now! Thank you for being a champion for change!
