Emergency home heating funds available for New Yorkers

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York state officials say more funding is available for residents facing problems keeping their homes heated this winter.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Wednesday that the additional funding will help eligible New Yorkers struggling to afford heating fuel or facing the likelihood of having their utility service shut off.
The Democrat says those people can apply for a second emergency benefit through the federal Home Energy Assistance Program starting on Monday. Families
