“Hochul helped pile $37K of debt on every New Yorker — and the bill’s coming due” As New Yorkers cast their ballots in Tuesday’s race for governor, the state’s economic health looms large: 34% of likely voters say taxes, jobs and inflation are the most important issues facing the Empire State, Emerson College pollsters found….
“City Council to embrace sanity on cost-saving retiree health plan” Kudos to Speaker Adrienne Adams, who’s leading the City Council to the obvious compromise on health-care plans for retired city employees. The courts have ruled that Mayor Eric Adams has the power to simply enroll 250,000 eligible retirees in a high-quality Medicare Advantage plan and…
“Adams is doing right in finding savings now — despite some ugly details” Kudos to Mayor Eric Adams for moving smartly to limit the municipal payroll as more bad budget news rolls in. In his third round of budget cuts this year, Budget Director Jacques Jiha on Monday ordered most city agencies to fill no…
“NY budget swells to $104B despite Adams-ordered 3% cuts” Projected city spending will surge to $104 billion this fiscal year — up about $3 billion — despite across-the-board budget cuts ordered by Mayor Eric Adams in September, City Hall said Tuesday.

To keep the city in the black — without raising taxes and fees…
“Bear market spells big trouble for NY state and city budgets” Wall Street generates an outsized share of New York’s tax revenue, so the recent drop in stock prices should worry both Gov. Kathy Hochul and Mayor Eric Adams — even if a recession doesn’t quickly follow. The securities industry generates 20% of total private…
“NYC Council’s progressives let down constituents by putting ideology first” Bipartisan cooperation has its rewards. City Councilwoman Tiffany Cabán and five of her progressive colleagues just learned that the hard way — and at the expense of their own constituents. The six democratic socialists let ideology trump cold, hard cash for district-specific needs — even…
