Day of Action: Hochul: Defend NY-Fund our future! Tuesday, March 10, 07:30 AM – 05:00 PM NYS Capitol – State St/Washington Ave Albany (Bus from Destiny Mall) On March 10th, New Yorkers from every corner of the state will converge on Albany to demand accountability from Governor Kathy Hochul. As our communities face overlapping crises, sky-high costs for rent, food, and childcare; new fossil fuel pipelines pushed while our climate law is ignored; and neighbors abducted and disappeared by ICE, all while the federal government cuts essential services, this Governor continues to prioritize big corporations and the status quo over working people. We are done being told to accept scarcity while corporations profit and our communities suffer.
This moment calls for unity. Climate, housing, immigrant, health, and economic justice movements are coming together to show Albany what collective power looks like. We are standing as one to demand a New York that is sustainable, affordable, and safe for all. Buses will be traveling from multiple regions Register Here for a local bus
