What hiring freeze? Cuomo hired four political operatives at a cost of $567,000 and now pushed through for those living below the poverty level who cant use Ez-pass a 30% thruway toll increase and extra $2.00 fee just to pay their bill! Emmy? He deserves a Bronx cheer!

Cuomo’s Budget Director says NY has always taxed unemployment benefits.Yes NY has over the years done many things that lack common sense! Taxing benefits for those who lost their jobs during a covid pandemic and face seemingly insurmountable economic challenges is plain stupid!
Those who went jobless because of pandemic should not have to pay state taxes on 1st $10,200 of their unemployment insurance when feds are giving same benefit. There's 38 bi-partisan sponsors on S.5125A to provide tax exemption-32 votes needed to pass. Bring the bill to the Floor https://t.co/rmQpfn4yOj
I'm continuing to get the word out about need for the legislature to pass a tax exemption for the first $10,200 of unemployment assistance for the 4 million New Yorkers who lost their jobs during the pandemic. Here's my letter to the editor in today's @dgazette. Pass the bill! https://t.co/9e120ZCykS
I talk to @AnneMcCloyNews @CBS6Albany at 5:30pm about the continued difficulties many New Yorkers who have lost their jobs due to the pandemic face in trying to get their unemployment insurance from the Department of Labor and issues related to that. https://t.co/Q4QYonI9LP
Can this be possible! Not a single position comment to any media outlet from Gov. of NY who represents all 1,100 St. Claire professionals who have lost all or a very large portion of their promised pensions and even before this health emergency have been in economic turmoil
The federal government did the right thing in exempting the first $10,200 of unemployment benefits for people as a result of the pandemic. NYS needs to now take the action for struggling taxpayers. https://t.co/RbGwuvWWEC
The Bishop just asked why it takes 5 days to arrest a policeman! Good question! I also ask why it takes two years to provide help and assistance to 1100 St. Claire employees who have had the rug pulled out from under them and have had their pensions taken away!!!
<U+2705>Thank you to the dedicated and hardworking members of the Public Employees Federation (PEF) for your strong endorsement and support!!! https://t.co/DtgSC4n7wF
Unemployment Benefits are Taxable in New York, Lawmakers Seek Change https://t.co/TUEDEUqtlL. It’s just pouring salt in a gaping economic wound!!
