ABOUT US
Identifying the issues. Elevating debate.
New York is at a crossroads. Poised to elect a new governor for the first time in 12 years, we need a campaign driven by issues—not rhetoric.
New York Matters aims to help voters make informed choices by promoting robust debate among candidates, policymakers, business and community leaders, and the general public.
By providing thoughtful, objective research and analysis to the media and voters, New York Matters will encourage candidates to stay focused on the issues identified by our statewide poll as most important to New Yorkers.
Developed by the Center for Governmental Research (CGR), New York Matters hopes to bring about positive changes in Albany, regardless of who wins.
