Powering Our State by Keeping New Yorkers in Poverty
...And Leaving Tax-Payers to Pick Up the Bill
Despite raking in $23.8 billion dollars from New Yorkers, public utility companies are taking advantage of a loophole that lets them keep the cleaners at their plants in poverty – and forces New York tax-payers to pick up the bill for the public assistance programs these workers are forced to rely on.
Earning as little as $7.75 an hour, hard-working New Yorkers can’t afford to support their families without the help of publicly-funded programs for their food, health care and housing.
Shouldn’t taxpayers expect more from the $24 billion utility industry?
Let’s be sure to get bill A-l0257/S-8379 into law
