The Growing Movement For Public Banks In NYS
October 1, 2020 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
The Growing Movement For Public Banks In NYS:
A Briefing For Community, Labor, and Faith Organizations.
The NYS Community Equity Agenda, Public Bank NYC, and the Rochester Public Banking Coalition invite members of New York-based community, labor, and faith organizations to join a timely briefing on the growing movement for public banking in New York.
The briefing will be held Thursday, October 1st, from 3 – 4 p.m. over Zoom. Register Here.
As Wall St. banks exploit the COVID-19 crisis and continue to exacerbate racial and economic inequality, the need for just institutions like public banks has never been clearer.
At the briefing, participants will:
-
Learn about grassroots campaigns and state legislative opportunities to move our public money out of Wall Street banks and into public banks rooted in racial and economic justice.
-
Hear from organizers from across the state about how public banks would invest in affordable housing, local jobs, the green economy, and other community needs.
-
Share ideas and learn how your organization can get involved.
