From getting us through the COVID-19 pandemic to getting landmark climate change legislation passed to aiding the people of Ukraine, President Joe Biden has been one of the most effective presidents in American history. We owe him a debt of gratitude for his accomplishments and lifetime of service.

TAKE ACTION to Protect Healthcare! Ask Gov. Hochul to sign the LICH Act.

1. Call Gov. Hochul’s office to leave a message in support of this bill: 518-474-8390.
2. Sign the online petition to urge Gov. Hochul to sign this bill into law. actionnetwork.org/petitions/lo...

Hospital closings worsen health equity by depriving access to hospital care. The LICH bill (S8843A/A1633B) would require a health equity impact assessment on any proposed hospital closure AND has been passed in the Senate and Assembly. Gov. Kathy Hochul: sign the bill! New Yorkers deserve equitable access to healthcare
