Senate Health Committee chair Gustavo Rivera: "It’s about recognizing that the change that they are attempting to push through is not a very thought through and not a very reasonable way to change the system," Rivera said.

PLEASE MAKE THE CALL!

There is still time to vote NO to one FI! This is one of just a couple issues holding up the final budget, because Assembly and Senate members are hearing from YOU.

"Without access to consumer-directed care, my neighbors would be left trying to access traditional home care. Since New York has the worst shortage of home care workers in the nation, many of them would come up short." #CDPAisEssential #CareNotCuts

Are you impacted by Governor Hochul's attacks on CDPAP?

We are asking you to share your story - help us get the Legislature and the media's attention on stopping cuts to the program that keeps so many New Yorkers safe, free, and self-directing.
