ISSUES
FIGHTING FOR CHANGEORDINARY PEOPLE. EXTRAORDINARY POWER!
Citizen Action of New York is a statewide grassroots membership organization taking on big issues that are at the center of transforming society—issues that will achieve social, racial, economic and environmental justice in our communities.
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.
We are affiliated at the national level with People’s Action and we partner with local organizations across New York State, working in coalition to win real victories for our communities. Join us in the fight for justice.
