Birth Control Access, Housing in Exec Budget, Legislative Health Priorities

from New York NOW · host WMHT Educational Telecommunications

New York has continued to expand access to abortion care, but what about birth control? We speak with Jenna Bimbi, the Founder and Co-Executive Director of the New York Birth Access Project, about a campaign to make birth control accessible at state schools. Housing remains an top issue, after the governor and Legislature failed to come to an agreement on a plan last year. We unpack the governor's approach to housing in the FY '25 Executive Budget and the response from lawmakers. Assembly Health Committee Chair Amy Paulin joins us to discuss health legislative priorities including the Medicaid spending, New York Health Act and the Medicaid in Dying bill.
