State Senators Jen Metzger and James Skoufis say the state budget is a win for local nursing homes.

The original budget proposal had more than $123 million in nursing home cuts across the state. For Valley View Center in Goshen, it would have been more than $4 million. The senators say the cuts would have been made retroactively, and would have had to be paid immediately.
