Stand Up for NY Toolkit

Learn how you can join our fight to protect New York's local governments from devastating cuts to Medicaid and SNAP.

Stand Up for NY Toolkit

The proposed House Budget dramatically cuts federal funding for Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, and supplemental nutrition assistance (SNAP) in New York State.

These cuts of over $15 billion annually would have severe consequences for county governments, healthcare providers, and vulnerable residents across every county.

They will strip coverage from over 2 million New Yorkers and drain billions in critical funding from our counties. 

They will devastate local health care, force property tax hikes, and overwhelm public services across the state.

Join us in calling on New York’s Congressional Delegation must Stand Up for NY and reject the proposed Medicaid and SNAP cuts.
