Investments in the CUNY will strengthen our economy and increase economic mobility for low income New Yorkers and people of color while targeting investment to the communities most harmed by COVID. But CUNY is being eviscerated when New York needs it most. The PSC urges the Legislature to raise taxes on the ultra-rich, to restore CUNY funding that would be cut in the Executive Budget and to support the first year of the New Deal for CUNY.
