The Worst Crisis in 50 Years
It has been fifty years since the City has faced challenges like it does today.
City leadership tries to paint an optimistic picture. But New Yorkers are smart. We know we are in trouble. We see it every day in the streets, on the subways. We see empty stores, crime in the street and the subway. Schools that are failing our kids. Taxpayers leaving the state. We hear of budget deficits and $ billions of unexpected costs to support and house “newcomers”. We connect the dots.
Save New York is here to help. Our donors and volunteers are all New Yorkers who want to bring New York back. We live and work here. This is our home.
What gives us the right to get involved? We have real equity in this City. In cash and sweat. We’re all in. We are the last line of defense. City leadership must understand that, if you lose us – the die-hard New Yorkers – you lose it all.
Consider us a valuable resource.
We know there are tough choices ahead. We want to be part of the solution. We want to be informed and involved. In return, we will give City leadership our view and back you up when making hard but necessary decisions.
Below is our Founding Members of the Committee (in formation).
