Big news: Tompkins County legislators are sending in a resolution for higher minimum wage!

Many upstate workers live in poverty. We are encouraged to see local legislators #RaiseTheWage in their localities and address the cost of living crisis. #RaiseUpNY

Investing in New York means investing in immigrant coverage and expanding health insurance access, and this can be done by accessing federal surplus funds and including undocumented people in the #1332waiver. #Coverage4All in 2024!

Legislators: Opposing the #EmPIREAct only protects lawbreakers and wage thieves.

Pass the #EmPIREAct Now!

When you’re in a country where you don’t speak the language, finding legal representation can become an even greater challenge than it already is for many immigrants in the US.

The time to pass the #ARA and invest $150M in legal services is NOW ➡️https://t.co/FOv50SP5kD

NEW: “NYS would generate billions of dollars in new economic benefits if it provides all asylum-seekers, migrants and others facing possible deportation with their own lawyer,” according to a new report from @NYCComptroller. #AccesstoRepresentation

[ColumbiaCounty Sanctuary Mvmt #FundExcludedWorkers @CCSMNY]

“Helping immigrants establish roots in CNY will reverse the challenges of a shrinking population…& generate approx. $1.9M in state & local taxes,” say @immresearchIRI & @WorkersCNY. NYS must invest $150M for immigration legal services & #ARA.
