What this can and cannot do

This is a request, not a law. The City Council is asking the New York State Legislature and the Governor to act, because the subject is outside the city's authority. Passing it commits the city to a position; it does not change the rule.

Summary

Fund the Medicaid program to cover 100% of the cost of care at New York State public, not-for-profit, and safety net hospitals by Fiscal Year 2028, including a significant down payment in the Fiscal Year 2025 State budget.
