Save Adult ESOL Classes

Please sign this petition to preserve funding for ESOL classes and prioritize spending in New York City. The mayor wants to cut vital services to avoid unpopular tax increases. As the survey indicates, the proposed taxes are mostly trivial, such as taxing dry cleaning and increasing the fee for birth and death certificates.

Please tell the city to maintain or increase spending for adult literacy/esol classes for immigrants. Although all the proposed cuts would be detrimental to certain populations, the amount of money that would be saved is not proportional to the effect that such a cut would have on our students and their families. One of our students typically represents a change in life and opportunities for their entire family. Sometimes their communities.

Here's the petition.

Here's the survey.

Please forward to other NYC constituents.
