The big win this year for environmentalists in the state budget was holding the line on clean water funding, as the big green priority – the NY HEAT Act – didn’t make it through budget negotiations.
We discuss what happened behind the scenes on both of these issues and look ahead at the end of the legislative session with Liz Moran, a policy advocate with Earthjustice, and Rob Hayes, director of clean water for Environmental Advocates NY.
We’re also hosting a free, live recording of the podcast on the morning of May 20 at the Bull Moose Club with Tusk Strategies Partner Shontell Smith and NY Working Families Party co-Director Jasmine Gripper. Reserve your spot today!
