The CDPAP program is absolutely essential for the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers who rely on it for home care.

We are continuing to fight to preserve CDPAP and demand that any changes in the state budget do not negatively impact CDPAP care providers or their patients.

We need a housing package that addresses the housing crisis and doesn’t leave families behind.

No more shenanigans. It’s time to decide if you’re on the side of working people or the real estate lobby.
