HUDSON — Local elected officials and representatives from environmental groups will rally in Albany on Thursday to call on Gov. Kathy Hochul to include the climate change superfund in the 2024 state budget.

The demonstrators plan to deliver holiday letters, release a 2023 analysis of new climate costs they say are burdening New York state households and announce the results of a national poll on the climate superfund.
