Empire Justice Center’s policy team undertakes a robust policy agenda which includes legislative and administrative priorities we seek to advance as well as policies and programs we monitor closely to ensure they are not eroded. As part of this advocacy, we sponsor and support bills, oppose harmful legislation and educate policymakers and other stakeholders on behalf of our clients.
We also monitor, advocate, negotiate and work collaboratively with federal, state and local agencies to protect and expand the rights of the most vulnerable.
