SUNY Downstate stepped up as a COVID-only hospital during the worst months of the pandemic. We must ensure it is properly funded and can continue to provide care to the Brooklyn community. UUP

SUNY's plan to close Downstate (and don't let anybody tell you that's not the plan) is an insult to a community that has been neglected, mistreated, underinvested and ignored for too long.

Proud to speak out at today's community rally.

Incredibly powerful rally today to stop the planned closure of SUNY Downstate Hospital.

As health disparities in Black, brown, and immigrant communities continue to grow, the solution cannot be to close hospitals that serve those same communities.

NY NEEDS Downstate! The world-class services at this public teaching hospital are an integral part of what makes our state great. To close it would be more than a loss for just this community, it would be a loss for us all. and so does NY! NYSUT UUP

“Making sure that we have $100 million in expenses for SUNY Downstate’s operating cost for the next year,” said Cunningham. “As well as $300 million in a lockbox tied to a commission that would study the future of SUNY Downstate.”

Closing Downstate is due to the core of Racism and Capitalism in US Healthcare.
-400,000 patients each year —nearly 90%—are living with Medicaid, Underinsured or Uninsured.
