This budget does not adequately address the concerns I consistently hear from my constituents. It does not make New York safer or more affordable. It does not safeguard the right of seniors and individuals with disabilities to be cared for in their homes. It does not help our Upstate communities expand housing or build infrastructure. It does not relieve small businesses of costly regulations or protect employers and jobs. It does not provide much-needed tax relief.
Restoring school aid was an important priority that we fought for and won. But this budget fails my constituents and our district in too many ways.
