New York, NY—Following the New York City Council’s Response To The Fiscal 2023 Preliminary Budget release, the New York Immigration Coalition (NYIC) applauded several critical additions that would greatly benefit the city’s immigrant population. In particular, NYIC celebrated the inclusion of $25 million to implement the Our City Our Vote law (Local Law 11-2022). Passed last December, the historic law allows New Yorkers who are green card holders or have valid work authorizations to vote in municipal elections.
