City Hall says it wants to move families into housing faster. But today marks day 467 since @ZohranKMamdani pledged to expand CityFHEPS, and day 53 since the appeal seeking to block the law from taking effect. The City must fully deliver the expansion families were promised.
Yesterday, Win’s Policy & Advocacy team joined 100+ organizations and 2,000 human services workers at the @HSC_NY rally in support of Int 0452, landmark wage equity legislation in the @NYCCouncil.
Int 0452 would begin to close that gap by creating a wage alignment system tied to comparable City job titles, with updates for cost of living and collective bargaining over time.
Pay equity is essential to building a stable, effective human services system for NYC. We’re grateful to the bill’s sponsors in the New York City Council for advancing this important legislation and recognizing that equal work deserves equal pay. #JUSTPAY
Reducing bureaucratic delays for families using CityFHEPS is important — and long overdue. But streamlining processes and paperwork is not the same as fully implementing and expanding the program families were promised.
Today marks day 466 since @ZohranKMamdani pledged on the campaign trail to expand and fully implement CityFHEPS — and day 52 since the administration chose litigation over implementation. Too many New Yorkers remain stuck waiting in shelter. #CityFHEPSNOW
