Governor Kathy Hochul did you know #CDPA is a lifeline for rural NYers already facing the worst of NY’s home care crisis? Your plan to get rid of trusted, local agencies for a large out-of-state company will force rural NYers to go without care. #DNC2024 #DNCChicago #ProtectHomeCare

When MA & PA switched ppl’s #CDPA agency, it caused major disruptions & interrupted care continuity for 10% of home care workers & consumers. Governor Kathy Hochul, in NY that is 25,000 people falling through cracks you create. #DNC2024 #DNCChicago #ProtectHomeCare

By selling out New York's local businesses to an out-of-state monopoly she will be putting in jeopardy the lives of individuals with disabilities and seniors who rely on CDPAP services. A number should dictate my life and freedom #DNC2024 #DNCChicago #ProtectHomeCare

ICYMI, Governor Kathy Hochul: Cutting CDPAP and implementing a single statewide fiscal intermediary will hurt disabled NYers like Sarah and caregivers like Doris. #ProtectHomeCare #DNC #DNCConvention2024 rochesterbeacon.com/2024/08/14/the…

To 250,000 NYers, #CDPAisEssential! A lifeline that gives people control over who provides their most intimate & vital care as well & how it is provided. Governor Kathy Hochul called this lifeline “a racket”! #DNC2024 #DNCChicago #ProtectHomeCare

Take it from Flip Polizzi Rivera #CDPAisEssential after spending years in an Institution CDPA helped flip into his own home! Governor Kathy Hochul wants to take control of their homecare from Flip & 250,000 others and give it to big business. #CripTheVote #DNC2024 #DNCChicago #ProtectHomeCare

Julia Métraux shows the cuts Governor Kathy Hochul will impose on #CDPA are causing fear & chaos for older & disabled ppl who rely on #CDPA to stay independent. An important thread & story. #DNCConvention2024 #ProtectHomeCare #CDPAIsEssential

Governor Kathy Hochul are you really set to uplift your constituents here in New York or an out-of-state Monopoly by giving one company control of CDPAP closing hundreds of New York small businesses and putting many out of work. #ProtectHomeCare #DNC2024 #DNCChicago

Please Governor Kathy Hochul Listen to Heather Burroughs about why #CDPAisEssential. Stop calling disabled people trying to live their lives a racket! #CripTheVote #DNCConvention2024 #DNC2024 #DNCChicago #ProtectHomecare

Governor Kathy Hochul is eliminating choice & jeopardizing care for 250,000 older & disabled NYers by forcing everyone in the consumer directed home care program to one out-of-state corporation #DNC2024 #DNCChicago #ProtectHomeCare NY Caring Majority 🍎

#HarrisWalz2024 appointed Anastasia Somoza as Disability Engagement. Governor Kathy Hochul is cutting #CDPA, the svce Anastasia relied on since she was born for a quality life, education, and employment. #DemocraticConvention #DNCConvention2024 #ProtectHomeCare #CDPAIsEssential

Governor Kathy Hochul is talking about New York values while destroying NY’s home care by giving a $40 billion contract to a big out of state corporation-with no transparency-taking away choice and access for 250K older & disabled ppl! #DNC2024 #DNCChicago #ProtectHomeCare

We must support the caregivers and families who rely on their local fiscal intermediaries, particularly in rural areas where alternatives are limited. It is a mistake for the state to risk disruption. #ProtectHomeCare timesunion.com/opinion/articl…

The Hochul administration’s decision to change the state’s CDPAP program has been criticized for its aggressive timeline. ⁦Kate Lisa⁩ spoke to one Fiscal Intermediary who won’t apply for the job. spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-ny…
