“It seems like it should be easy to be able to deliver a finalized state budget on time so much-needed funding can be directed to the right places. We are doing small businesses and hardworking New Yorkers a disservice by passing an emergency extender and delivering a late state budget. The Majorities in the State Senate and Assembly should be pushing for meaningful conversations and negotiations. I will continue to fight for safer, more affordable communities, and continue to work across the aisle to deliver the results New Yorkers deserve.”
