The State of the State, Nurses Protest and Intempo Music Education

Governor Kathy Hochul gave the 2026 state of the state address today. She spoke about the changes made in New York in the past year, including increasing the minimum wage, removing phones from schools, and investing in clean energy. On Monday, almost 15,000 people rallied at hospitals around New York City. WFUVs Sienna Reinders and Sonia Weliwitigoda went to one of the strikes. WFUV’s Strike a Chord public service campaign highlights non profits in the Tri-State Area. This season, we focused on organizations that support arts and music education.
