6:08 Home care workers, their advocates and several New York state senators gathered virtually Wednesday to denounce Governor Andrew Cuomo for blocking the Fair Pay for Home Care Act in the new state budget. A New York congressman who joined the virtual press conference says federal help could be on the way. Home-care worker Samarauh Person is with Cooperative Home Care Associates. “I have to work four jobs to be able to pay all of my bills. The cost of living is so high here in New York. My rent is $1,500 a month. And that’s about how much it costs just to live somewhere decent in New York,” Person says. “My transportation is $135 a month for the metro card. The phone and cable are over $200 a month, health care insurance over $100 a month, and food, forget about it.”
