ACTION: Fix Tier 6 to Protect Our Public Services

Staffing shortages in the public sector are at crisis levels. From public education to health care, and transportation to emergency services, employers at every level of government have sounded the alarm that they cannot recruit enough staff or encourage qualified individuals to stay in service.

Our state government must fix tier 6 in the 2024-25 State Budget; we can’t afford to wait any longer to find a solution. Will you ask your state officials to take action? Send a pre-written letter or write your own today!

It is critical that our elected officials hear from concerned New Yorkers about how important this issue is. Make sure your voice is heard!

In solidarity,

New York State AFL-CIO
