At the CA Democratic Convention, rallying for #CareNotCuts ! #CADem #HomeCare #Childcare #CareWork #CABudget #budget

Huge news! Together, we saved Market Match!

Just a few days ago, Gov. Newsom signed the 2024-25 #CABudget into law, with all proposed cuts to the California Nutrition Incentive Program (CNIP) removed! This funding will secure the future of the #MarketMatch program!

Will you take a moment to help express our gratitude for preserving funding for CNIP in this difficult budget year? https://www.nextgenpolicy.org/thank-legislators-for-saving-the-california-nutrition-incentive-program-cnip/

We need your help! Join us tomorrow from 12:30 - 1:30 on the west steps of the Capitol and rally to #SaveMarketMatch!
Find details and RSVP at https://savemarketmatch.org/rally (you are welcome to show up, even if you forget to RSVP!)

This program is an essential safety net for hungry families and California's small farms, and we are fighting its extinction. If you can't make it tomorrow, please take a few minutes for other action steps: https://savemarketmatch.org/act

History of the June 15 #CABudget deadline https://jasonsisney.substack.com/p/the-june-15-budget-deadline

Despite the nine-month IRS filing and payment extension, FTB personal income tax refunds to Californians continue, as in April, to go out at a robust pace.

It appears that working Californians did not procrastinate in claiming refunds.

April+May PIT refunds:

$7.6 billion in 2022

$7.8 billion in 2023 so far
