Let's get the Home Care Savings & Reinvestment Act passed – it's a cornerstone of our #CareNotCorruption platform!
New York must eliminate private insurance middlemen from home care and reinvest savings directly into home care wages and care. www.rochesterfirst.com/new-york-sta...
Statement on New York’s One House Budget Proposal We are deeply disturbed that neither the Senator nor Assembly included basic transparency requirements for New York's $11 billion contract with PPL. Handing private equity control over healthcare is questionable enough; doing so with zero oversight or accountability is reckless. At least 240,000 home care workers and consumers have fled CDPAP since PPL’s takeover. The private equity-backed company has been accused of ‘egregious fiscal and operational failures’ in six other states where they previously operated. Basic public reporting requirements are not just reasonable, they’re necessary for the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers who rely on CDPAP. We strongly urge NYS leadership to include these transparency measures in the final state budget.

The NYC #CareNotCorruption launch outside of Governor Kathy Hochul's office was very cold, but a success! It says so much both about the strength of our community and what’s at stake for consumers and workers that ~50 Caring Majority advocates made it out today.
Today is the day! @caringmrising.bsky.social is out here fighting for #CareNotCorruption 🔥
Heads up New York! #CareNotCorruption
