Carlyn Cowen, CPC Chief Policy and Public Affairs Officer, joined over 100 advocates, organizations, workers, clients, and legislators at today's #FairPay4HomeCare press conference in Albany on March 22nd.
The Fair Pay for Home Care Act would require at least 150% of the minimum wage or other set minimum and direct the commissioner of health to set regional minimum rates of reimbursement for home care aids under medicaid and managed care plans.
We are urging Governor Hochul to include living wages for home care workers in the State budget!
