Dear Charles, New York State lawmakers returned to Albany this week to resume the state legislative session and focus on New York State's budget. As legislators negotiate their priorities, we need your help to ensure that lawmakers champion new state measures that will
prevent gun violence by investing in our communities and young people.
Take action TODAY and click here to tell your state legislators to pass these bills! 1. The School Anti-Violence Education Act (S.4598/A.4917) 2. Medicaid Reimbursements to Expand Community Violence Intervention
