A coalition of healthcare unions, patient advocates and community organizations gathered outside Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx on April 10 to press Gov. Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature to fund healthcare by taxing the wealthy, according to media advisories distributed by the organizers.

The rally, scheduled for 11 a.m. at the hospital at 234 E. 149th St., was anchored by three labor groups representing front-line medical workers: Doctors Council, the Committee of Interns and Residents and the New York State Nurses Association, the advisories said. Organizers described the action as a call on state lawmakers to raise revenue from high earners rather than cut health programs.
