Invest In Our New York

“This Pandemic has shown that essential workers who are often excluded from Federal aid are vital to keep this city running and to sustain the economy. Right now we are struggling to pay our bills, keep our homes, and feed our families. Taxing the super-wealthy is an urgent solution to providing the support we need to survive.”
- Kenya Williams, Domestic Worker, CGA Member

We are thrilled to join over 100 grassroots, labor, and community organizations and elected officials to support the Invest In Our New York Act — a historic state legislative package to rebuild New York’s economy and end tax breaks for the wealthiest New Yorkers. The Invest In Our New York Act will represent the single largest measure taken to close New York’s inequality gap in decades, marking a massive reversal from years of austerity budgets that have decimated public schools, affordable housing, healthcare, immigrant workers, and localities, while providing tax breaks to the wealthiest New Yorkers.
