On Tuesday, June 30, my colleagues and I voted to pass the FY’ 2027 budget, which is the largest package of capital and expense investments in New York City history. This year’s adopted budget successfully restores the Mayor’s cuts to critical services New Yorkers depend on. The Council fought to restore funding for cultural institutions and libraries, parks, NYCHA, affordable housing initiatives, and more.

While the fight to bring parks funding up to 1% of the city’s budget continues, this is a promising first step. We restored partial funding to CityFHEPS, a voucher program for families in the shelter system looking to stabilize their lives while the administration vows to drop the existing litigation against CityFHEPS.

From over $22.7M in workforce development to $23M in investments directly into our community, this budget delivers necessary support to our community institutions.

You can find a breakdown of our in-district and citywide funding below.

From over $42.5M in workforce development to $38.9M in investments directly into our community, this budget delivers necessary support to our community institutions. Take a look at some of the more notable investments.
