1. Which of the following issues matter to you? (Select all that apply.)

2. The New York HEAT Act would write into law the Public Service Commission (PSC)’s goal of capping household utility bills at 6% of a household’s income, requiring utilities to pursue cost savings. It would also end state subsidies for the provision of natural gas, and require the PSC to develop a plan to transition the state away from natural gas. Should New York pass this law?

3. The New York Health Act would create a single-payer healthcare system in New York. It would be funded by a combination of payroll and income taxes that would be higher for higher income earners and lower for those who earn less, as well as funding from the federal government and other sources. It would eliminate costs like deductibles, co-pays, and other out-of-pocket expenses; 90% of New Yorkers would spend less on healthcare than they do at present. Should New York pass this law?

4. The Packaging Reduction & Recycling Infrastructure Act would save taxpayers and municipalities money by forcing polluting companies to pay to deal with their packaging waste. It would also get 19 of the most toxic chemicals and substances out of packaging and require companies to reduce their packaging by 30% over 12 years. Should New York pass this law?

5. The Compassionate Care Act would allow adults who have been confirmed to be mentally competent and terminally ill (with a prognosis of 6 months or less to live) to have the option of requesting and obtaining medication enabling them to die peacefully in their sleep. Should New York pass this law?

6. The “One Fair Wage” Act would phase out the subminimum wage for tipped workers in New York State, guaranteeing that all workers (including those in the restaurant industry) earn at least the state’s minimum wage. It would also enable any tips that are given to “front of house” restaurant workers to be shared with “back of house” workers, a practice currently barred by state law. Should New York pass this law?

7. The Consumer & Small Business Protection Act would update the general business law to prohibit a broader variety of unfair and abusive practices that have arisen in recent decades. It would guarantee that successful plaintiffs are able to recover attorney’s fees, enabling more individuals and small businesses to seek justice, and raise the minimum award for statutory damages from $50 to $1,000. Should New York pass this law?
