Legislative Priorities

Note: Budget negotiation for the 2019-2020 State Budget are at a stalemate so action on several Coalition priorities are on hold pending action on the budget.

  • Invest state dollars in adult protective services (APS), mandated core services provided by county departments of social services to our state’s most vulnerable adults. $893,041 in additional federal Social Services Block Grant funding was approved for adult protective services and has been allocated to county departments of social services.
  • Close the health insurance coverage gap in the state.
  • Increase the recurring state funding for the Home and Community Care Block Grant (HCCBG) by $7 million.
  • Increase funding for the Housing Trust Fund and increase the Homestead Property Tax Exemption to help ensure older adults and persons with disabilities have safe and affordable housing.
  • Conduct a comprehensive study about how the state can better support family care- givers, particularly caregivers who are in the workforce so they can continue to work.
