THE STATE of EARLY LEARNING in NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT out Access to Full-Day Pre-K and Child Care by Legislative District
BRIEFING GUIDE THE STATE OF EARLY LEARNING IN NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT OUT Access to Full-Day Pre-K and Child Care By Legislative District What New York Leaders Need to Do Now Recommendations for 2019-20 Enacted Budget Acknowledgments Preparation of this report was truly a team effort by the Ready for Kindergarten, Ready for College Campaign including Betty Holcomb, Center for Children’s Initiatives, Marina Marcou O’Malley, the Alliance for Quality Education, Dorothy (Dede) Hill, the Schuyler Center for Analysis and Advocacy, and Pete Nabozny, The Children’s Agenda for valuable data analysis and editing. Special thanks to Jennifer March, executive director, Citizens’ Committee for Children and to the Committee’s data and research team, including Marija Drobnjak, and Sophia Halkitis, for the providing data on subsidized child care in New York City. In addition, we want to thank the National Alliance for Early Success, the New York Community Trust, Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation and The Partnership for America’s Children for their support. THE STATE OF EARLY LEARNING IN NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT OUT | 2 OPPORTUNITIES DENIED Working Families And The State’s Youngest Learners Left Out HIGHLIGHTS • The Governor’s proposal to add just $15 million for pre-K for 3- and 4- year olds, is unlikely to add even the 3,000 new seats he promises, and falls dismally short of rising need and unmet demand. More than 100 districts gave formal notice of interest in adding pre-K last October. • 80,000 four-year-olds across the state – mostly outside New York City – still have no full-day pre-K.

First, we will take this opportunity to reiterate our strong support for the PAVE-NY and BRIDGE-NY programs enacted as part of the 2016-17 state budget. These initiatives have provided invaluable funding for additional road paving, and bridge and culvert work for both the state and local systems, and we will look forward to their continuation this year and in future years. Nevertheless, as we continue to address the sustainable future of New York’s locally maintained transportation infrastructure, we must once again highlight the Consolidated Highway Improvement Program (CHIPS), which as you know makes the key difference for so many local communities, economies, governments, motorists, and taxpayers throughout the state.

St. John’s Law School Biography Anthony Palumbo has dedicated his career to protecting Long Island families. As a Suffolk County Assistant District Attorney, he prosecuted major crimes and drug traffickers. He has taken that background to Albany and as an Assemblyman, he’s fought to keep our communities safe, hold officials accountable and enhance the quality of life that makes Suffolk County special. Since his election to the Assembly in 2013, Anthony has shown the drive and vision families on Long Island need and deserve in state government. His very first piece of legislation was a massive tax-cut bill that would save the average Suffolk County resident over $2,500 annually. That same year he accomplished a rare feat for a freshman GOP Assemblyman by sponsoring and passing a law that helped first-time homebuyers and younger residents save thousands and made the dream of homeownership on Long Island more affordable.

Sample Resident Letter Re: Route 9A Repairs
Sample resident letter re: Route 9A Repairs Our local senator David Carlucci (D -38th Senate District) is sponsoring a bill authorizing the NYS Department of Transportation to study proposed improvements of Route 9A. (The full text of Senate bill S7554 is here: https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/bills/2019/s7554) The suggested improvements include guardrail installation, underpass renovations, and the fiscal, logistical, and environmental impact of such improvements in the towns of Ossining and Mount Pleasant. This study is a necessary next step for residents to benefit from badly needed upgrades to Route 9A. The bill also sets a timetable, requiring the Department of Transportation to report their findings to the governor and legislature within one year. The Briarcliff Manor Board of Trustees is asking all residents to send an email encouraging support, and passage, of this bill. Residents can prepare an email by simply clicking on this single link: Create email template for NYS Officials. Dear Chairman Kennedy, We applaud Senator David Carlucci’s bill S7554 to authorize a study of long overdue improvements to state Route 9A in Ossining and Mount Pleasant. Deficiencies in the road design, including low bridges and outdated on-ramp designs, make this roadway very dangerous. The undersized drainage structures under Route 9A result in flooding of residents’ homes. These conditions have led to an accident every three days along Briarcliff Manor’s two-mile stretch alone. Many drivers aware of the Route 9A issues detour onto our local side roads overwhelming our roadways, the congestion at the 9A/North State Road traffic light is extremely dangerous, and both create hazardous conditions for local traffic and pedestrians.
