✦ Plain-Language Summary

This resolution urges New York State lawmakers and the Governor to pass a bill that would create long-term care benefits for eligible New Yorkers. Long-term care covers services like home health aides, nursing homes, and assisted living that many people need as they age or deal with serious illness. Passing this bill could help NYC residents afford care without draining their savings or relying solely on family members.
