SB9130 has no fiscal implications, making it a clear win-win for justice and budget alike. Let’s champion this bill for equitable access to civil legal services. #SupportS9130 #ProtectIOLA

Those across the NY legal profession are alarmed by @GovKathyHochul's proposal to "sweep" to the general NY state budget $100M from IOLA, a fiduciary fund exclusively for civil legal aid, jeopardizing access to justice. NY lawyers, act now: nycbar.org/iola-letter-si… #StopIOLAsweep

The state must invest in legal aid so New Yorkers can access legal help for life’s essentials like housing, income stability & abuse prevention. Doing so will ensure liberty and justice for all and not just those who can afford it. @NYLSCoalition #LegalAidPayParity #StopIOLAsweep

VOLS joins @NYSBA, The IOLA Fund, and other non-profit legal services organizations and calls to stop the proposed sweep of $100M from the IOLA Fund - a fund that supports life-changing civil legal services for low-income New Yorkers - to the State’s General Fund. #stopiolasweep
