NY NEEDS Downstate! The world-class services at this public teaching hospital are an integral part of what makes our state great. To close it would be more than a loss for just this community, it would be a loss for us all. #BrooklynNeedsDownstate and so does NY! @nysut @uupinfo @AFTunion @NYSPEF @nynurses

Today we rallied alongside union family @UUPInfo @NYSPEF @AFTUnion and are taking a stand against the state’s plan to close SUNY Downstate hospital. #BrooklynNeedsDownstate, NY Needs Downstate! We must support @SUNYDownstate to ensure its viability now and in the future as the vital health care center of excellence that it is. @nysut @rweingarten @UUPDownstatech
