Issue Position: Stop the Unfunded Mandates that Continue to Drown Local Governments and Negatively Impact Taxpayers, Residents and Workforces
Issue Position
Issues: Taxes Government Budget and Spending
As past President of the New York State Conference of Mayors, I know first hand the burden of unfunded mandates on local governments and school districts. I believe that if the State of New York wants to start an effort or make a change to benefits, then New York State should find a way to pay for it. The continued shifting of the tax burden onto local governments impacts our workforce and property taxes. This process must end.
