New Legislation for Restoration of State Funding

South East has been advised that new legislation is being introduced in the NYS Assembly and Senate to restore OPWDD funding that was cut in the NYS budget.  The legislation is sponsored by Assemblyman Harvey Weisenberg.  This bill (A.6692) has 142 co-sponsors, almost every member of the Assembly.  If Speaker Silver allows a vote, it is almost certain to pass.  Please take the time to call your Assembly member and tell him/her to vote for A.6692 immediately.  To ask for your Assembly member, call the Assembly switchboard at (518) 455-4100 and ask to be connected to your Assembly member.

Thank you.  Together we can make this happen!
