We’re grateful to the Legislature for restoring full funding for the IOLA Fund in their one-house budget proposals. Civil legal services help New Yorkers facing eviction, domestic violence, immigration challenges and more access justice when they need it most. 🧵
IOLA funding does not come from taxpayer dollars. It comes from interest earned on attorney escrow accounts and is dedicated by law to supporting civil legal services for low-income New Yorkers.
We urge @GovKathyHochul and the Legislature to ensure full IOLA funding is included in the final enacted budget. New Yorkers facing legal crises deserve nothing less.
