"We are deeply concerned that this unprecedented diversion of funds would impose lasting harm on low-income New Yorkers by taking money from legal aid organizations, would severely undermine the stability of a critical source of financial support for legal services and would violate the statute that created IOLA."
The New York City Bar Association wrote their own letter about the plan, "Food security, shelter, jobs, health care and other life necessities would be at risk if these non-taxpayer, IOLA funds were to be diverted."
