The Working Families Party is focused on tackling the political, economic and educational inequality that deprive working and middle class families of opportunity. Our vision is to build a New York that is fair for all of us, not just the wealthy and well-connected. We’re known for our legislative fights on issues that cut to the core of New Yorkers’ concerns today — raising the minimum wage and guaranteeing paid sick days, fighting the influence of big money over politics, and de- fending quality public schools.” NEW YORK STATE POLITICAL PARTIES 2019–2022 7
