Finally, our BALCONY health care advocates range from the Medicare Rights Center to the American Cancer Society to AARP of New York and to the Metro New York Health Care for All Campaign.

Members Directory is a service to our current members, our prospective members, and our legislators and friends, providing a guide to our ever-growing coalition. It can serve as a valuable resource for all of us.

BALCONY Supports Prescription Reform Package

February 1st, 2008

Statement by Lou Gordon, BALCONY Coordinator

BALCONY, the Business and Labor Coalition of New York, came into existence in 2006 and represents more than five hundred businesses, labor unions and non-profit organizations. BALCONY seeks common ground and policy solutions on key issues that affect all New Yorkers.

Early on in BALCONY’s existence, we realized that rising prescription drug costs were a major impediment to solving the statewide healthcare coverage crisis and have a major inflationary impact on the cost of health care for all of our residents.
