No focus on broad-based, lower taxes for workers and employers alike. Nothing about the pitfalls of overregulation. Or the drain of unfunded state mandates on counties and local property taxpayers. Or the glaring need for workforce development. Or the high cost of living that is driving people, especially young people, out of Upstate New York.
Senator O'Mara offers his weekly perspective on many of the key challenges and issues facing the Legislature, as well as on legislative actions, local initiatives, state programs and policies, and more. Stop back every Monday for Senator O'Mara's latest column "From the Capitol..."
This week, "Either government delivers, or it doesn't"
