Rally to Stop the Federal Budget Scam

Wednesday, August 13, 2025

Foley Square, New York City

New York is under attack.

The Federal budget scam will devastate our state — close hospitals, spike health insurance premiums and utility bills, gut the public benefits and make our communities less safe... all while millionaires and billionaires rake in unfair tax breaks.

We refuse to let New Yorkers be sacrificed to this federal cruelty.

Join us on August 13th at 11am in Foley Square as we rally to demand that Governor Hochul and the New York State Legislature take immediate action. We’re calling for a Special Session to:

  • Fund our healthcare system and ensure New York is affordable for everyone by making the super-wealthy pay their fair share of taxes; and

  • Keep New Yorkers safe by passing the New York for All and Dignity in Detention Acts.

This is a moment of moral clarity. New Yorkers need real leadership — not silence.

We need lawmakers to stand up and protect our communities. We can’t afford to wait.
