[COMM-ORG] Community Voices Heard action

[Discussion list for COMM-ORG]

  From: Taja Lindley <taja at cvhaction.org>



Dozens of low-income members of Community Voices Heard (CVH) and VOCAL 
from New York City, Yonkers, Poughkeepsie and Newburgh converged on the 
reception for the Real Estate Board of New York’s (REBNY) annual gala at 
the New York Hilton Hotel last night calling on attendees to pay their 
fair share in helping the state get through these tough times. REBNY is 
a major backer of the Committee to Save New York, a new coalition of 
powerful special interests pushing for a millionaire's tax break and 
reactionary budget cuts.



Check out photos and video from the action, read the press release, and
