Expected Further Delay for State Budget
Gov. Kathy Hochul indicated she may issue a second budget extender as the initial budget extension deadline of April 10 approaches. The original budget deadline was April 1. Budget negotiations remain ongoing between the governor and majority leaders of the state Senate and Assembly with little progress being reported. Major issues being negotiated include bail reform, and various housing policy proposals such as good cause eviction, a housing access voucher program, and the governor’s plan to create 800,000 housing units over the next 10 years. Good cause eviction is one of the most controversial proposals being negotiated in the budget – please be sure to tell state lawmakers and Governor Hochul to oppose “good cause” eviction by Taking Action HERE.
