When I became Governor, I made it clear that it was a top priority to get relief money out the door as fast as possible to NYers struggling from pandemic-related economic hardship. Today I'm pleased to announce major progress in getting pandemic relief to NYers in need.
Close to $400M in rental assistance has been paid out—nearly double the amount in the past 
weeks
This will enable tenants at risk for eviction to stay in their homes and helping struggling landlords to recoup unpaid rent.
Starting September 15, $125M in new state funding through the Emergency Rental Assistance Program will be designated for middle-income renters previously ineligible. Renters interested in applying for either federal or state assistance should visit http://otda.ny.gov/erap
And we're continuing to provide critical assistance to excluded workers:
Over $1.05B in Excluded Workers Program Funds has been approved for distribution to date
$550M will have been released by the end of the week
And additional $500M is undergoing final verification
Lipstick on a pig. Landlords still need their renters to pay rent at some point in the not so distant future
So just when is the landlord across the street from me going to be able to evict the drug dealers that live there? Mind you the house is close to 2 schools and the drug dealer has been seen and heard trying to push drugs on kids that were smart enough to say no. 
Never if they keep extending eviction
Wish my landlord would submit upload paperwork on his end for him to get the rental assistance I was approved for but can’t be released until landlords does his part . Paperwork needed is the deposit information for him .
tenants that DONT fills out the form bc they never had hardship...then what?! Small landlords are not able to have due process to recoup all this time. Open the courts and let small landlords due process.
This so called assistance is only covering 12 months and it’s been 18 months already, not counting new eviction ban. Who is covering those months. How about if you give up your salary and work for free for that many months and come back and tell us how does it feel.
When will you & your office, address the side of the eviction issue?! The ones that, aren’t based on $$ & have been waiting to be heard. The wait for funds,has been long for the people in need. (They’re Landlords who have been, waiting LONGER for their due process)
