More and more New Yorkers are being pushed out of the City because they can't afford to live here.
MIT studies show that the living wage in NYC in 2030 is $30/hr.
That's why our #RaiseUpNY coalition is fighting for living wages needed to survive and thrive. #RaiseTheWage
Join together the Rochester Area Living Wage Alliance – a coalition of labor unions, advocates, and community-based orgs dedicated to addressing the affordability crisis and reducing poverty by raising wages at the local level.

Workers and community organizations in Tompkins County are fighting to #RaiseTheWage so working families don't have to make compromises on food, utilities, and rent. #RaiseUpNY

We’re here to see if New Yorkers can guess the cost of goods and if they stand with workers to #RaiseTheWage across NYS!
We ❤️ NY, but it’s getting too damn expensive.
@GovKathyHochul, it’s time to #RaiseUpNY and stand with the 80% of New Yorkers who want a $21.25 #MinimumWage that automatically rises with inflation!
