In a time of rising uncertainty and when trusted nonprofits are already stretched thin, our coalition of 150+ AAPI organizations is calling on Governor Hochul, Majority Leader Stewart-Cousins, and Speaker Heastie to pass the $54.35 million #AAPIEquityBudget and invest in AAPI New Yorkers!
Thank you AM Grace Lee, Senator Jeremy Cooney, Senator Jamaal Bailey, AM Karines Reyes, and AM Emerita Torres for meeting with us to learn more about the urgent needs of our most vulnerable community members and why the #AAPIEquityBudget is critical to bridging those gaps.
