Throughout the 2018 Legislative Session, the Committee remained dedicated to addressing the needs of small businesses by passing legislation designed to aid small business in recognition of the current challenging marketplace. This past session the Committee worked on legislation designed to stimulate small and entrepreneurial business growth, to help small businesses to become both energy and environmentally efficient, to promote minority-and women-owned business development, to incorporate available resources for these entrepreneurs and to ease the regulatory strain on small businesses. The Committee worked closely with its members to craft legislation that would create an online informational resource for small businesses and minority- and women-owned businesses. It also addressed public concerns stemming from a Joint Legislative hearing examining the role of online lending, by introducing legislation to provide for online lending awareness to educate businesses on the potential costs associated with obtaining loans through online marketplace lenders. The Committee will continue to examine the full range of issues affecting the needs of small businesses. I join with my colleagues and commend you for your commitment to supporting small businesses.

    THE NATION NEEDS NEW YORK Each January, the state Legislature gathers for a six-month session to grapple with the pressing issues of the day and to advance public policy that will make our state a better place in which we live, work, and play. Over the years, New York has set the tone for enacting bold laws to protect the environment, to cut pollution, and to improve the health of our communities and people. In the late 1800s we enacted the forever-wild provision of the state Constitution; in the 1980s we adopted the nation’s first acid rain law and the bottle bill; and, we have the most comprehensive environmental quality review act in the nation. It is truly breathtaking what can be achieved when the Legislature focuses and commits to protecting the environment. The 1993 session is a prime example of what is possible – in that year, agreements were forged to enact the Long Island Pine Barrens Protection Act, the Environmental Protection Fund, and the Clean Air Compliance Act! We chose an image for this year’s cover that depicts all that is at-risk if our leaders fail. For sure we have made enormous progress that we don’t want to lose. But, community character continues to be challenged by overdevelopment, we struggle to provide safe water for drinking, and we have too many people exposed to air pollution that can make them sick. As we bear witness to what is shaping up as the most anti-environment federal government (Congress and the Administration sharing this equally), the question for all New Yorkers is: are our leaders ready to embrace the challenge and demonstrate to the nation how strong environmental laws and standards lead to the progress and prosperity we all need? 2 EPL/Environmental Advocates is one of the first TABLE OF organizations in the nation formed to advocate for the future of a state’s environment and the health of its citizens.

    April 30, 2020 The Honorable Donald J. Trump President of the United States The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500 The Honorable Charles Schumer Senate Minority Leader Hart Senate Office Building, 322 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Mr. President, Minority Leader Schumer & Congressional Leaders: As a fifth stimulus package is being negotiated in Washington, we hope that it includes aid to local governments, especially in states being hit the hardest by the COVID-19 pandemic. We write to urge you to direct some of that aid to volunteer fire departments and volunteer emergency medical services (EMS) that are on the front lines of this epidemic and are facing economic devastation as a result. New York State is protected daily by 110,000 volunteer firefighters in nearly 900 fire districts. According to the Firemen’s Association of the State of New York (FASNY), the services provided by volunteer fire departments save New York taxpayers more than $3 billion per year. New York State has been the epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak for months, with more than 290,000 positive cases. COVID-19 is taking its toll on our communities both personally and financially. We simply cannot afford to lose our volunteer fire departments and volunteer EMS as a result. We respectfully request that you consider these recommendations to provide direct assistance to volunteer fire departments and volunteer EMS to help them survive this pandemic: Ensure federal reimbursement to volunteer fire departments and volunteer EMS for personal protective equipment (PPE), such as face shields, gloves, gowns, goggles and glasses, head covers, masks, respirators, and shoe covers in conformance with FDA requirements.

Mescain District Manager March 23, 2021 Honorable Andrew Cuomo Governor of New York State NYS State Capitol Building Albany, NY 12224 Re: New York State Senate Bill S4461 Dear Governor Cuomo, Community Board 11 supports Senate Bill S4461, which enacts The New Deal For CUNY. This legislation restores free tuition and establishes minimum staff-to-student ratios for mental health counselors, academic advisors and full-time faculty at CUNY over a period of five years. The State’s current practice of funding CUNY with yearly tuition hikes has left CUNY vastly underfunded and left CUNY’s student body without the support they need to succeed. Waiving tuition and establishing minimum staff-to-student ratios would reestablish CUNY as an engine for social and economic mobility for low-income New Yorkers and people of color. Communities like ours in East Harlem were disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our economic recovery from the COVID crisis relies on A New Deal for CUNY. This landmark legislation will transform New York's education system, economy and society, positioning us to recover stronger and better from this crisis. Investment in CUNY is a key to a just future for New York. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions. Sincerely, Nilsa Orama Chair Community Board 11 cc: Hon. Brian Benjamin, New York State Senate (via email) Hon. José M.

  • 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.

    THE ASSEMBLY STATE OF NEW YORK ALBANY December 4, 2020 Hon. Andrew M. Cuomo Governor, State of New York Executive Chamber, State Capitol Albany, NY 12248 Dear Governor Cuomo: We urge your attention to the growing challenges that acute, intermediate and long-term care facilities, including nursing homes and those that provide care for children and adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities, across the state face concerning recruitment and retention due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Rising COVID-19 infection rates are poised to test new surge capacity plans at hospitals and long- term care facilities throughout rural, suburban and urban New York. We are now armed with a better understanding of the virus, and of treatments and interventions, than we were at the start of this pandemic. Yet statistics, unfortunately, indicate that New York could face the long-feared scenario of health facilities statewide being overrun by coronavirus patients and COVID-19-related safety measures which would hinder access to care and potentially cost lives despite breakthroughs in medical treatments for COVID-19. One of the greatest challenges for health facilities is the recruitment and retention of staff, from doctors and nurses to support staff, nurse assistants, janitorial staff and others. Many facilities faced difficulties with staff recruitment and retention prior to the start of the pandemic, proving that this is a long-term issue that the State must reckon with. The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly exacerbated the situation and we must swiftly provide a plan to remedy it. New York State must use funding provided to the State by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act to support health care staffing.

Linking essential school funding with the implementation of a teacher evaluation system which has been universally discredited and rushed makes little sense. Moreover, evidence demonstrates that many schools are having difficulty meeting the Albany-mandated criteria, raising deep concerns that the impending deadline will negatively impact public students. So far, only 121 out of the over 700 school districts in the state have submitted evaluation plans. Our children’s education is too important for partisan politics. That is why I urge you to join me in doing the right thing for our children, families and schools by signing on to my letter urging Majority Leader Flanagan to bring Senate Bill S.7632 to the floor for a vote. By putting partisanship aside and working together we can ensure all of New York’s public school districts receive the state funds they were promised.
