It is time to return New York State government to you, the people.
The "You Cut Albany" program will allow New Yorkers, such as yourself, to vote online and give their opinions regarding which specific examples of wasteful spending they would like to see cut from the State Budget. The votes and direct input provided from constituents will be used by Senator Young and her colleagues during budget discussions -- both at Budget Conference Committee tables, as well as on the floor of the New York State Senate. On a regular basis, new spending items will be added to the list for consideration and a new round of on-line voting by taxpayers.
