✦ Plain-Language Summary

This bill would create a grant program to help nonprofit news organizations in New York State hire and retain journalists and staff. News outlets that qualify as nonprofits could apply for funding to support local journalism jobs. The goal is to strengthen local news coverage across New York, especially in communities that have lost news outlets in recent years.
