Citizen Action of New York

About Citizen Action of New York

Citizen Action of New York is a grassroots membership organization taking on big issues that are at the center of transforming American society. We work on issues like: quality education and after-school programs for all our kids; quality, affordable health care; full public funding of election campaigns and expanded voting rights; criminal justice reform; fighting for social, racial, economic and environmental justice; and a more progressive tax system. We look for opportunities to accomplish big changes - not small, incremental reforms. We work to elect progressive candidates to office who are committed to these issues. Our power comes from the grassroots: people coming together to push the edge of the possible. Every new member helps bring New York and America closer to a society that works for all of us!
