OUR VISION FOR NEW YORK
Mandate Relief
THE PROBLEM
-
Unfunded mandates are defined as new or expanded programs, projects, or activities required by the State that must be paid for by a locality.
-
New York has the highest State share for Medicaid in the nation.
OUR VISION
-
Stop Mandates at the Source: Eliminate unfunded mandates that burden our local governments and school districts
-
State Assistance for Local Medicaid Costs: Require the State to cover local Medicaid expenses and give localities greater flexibility
-
Reduce and Control Property Taxes: Provide relief to local budgets by reining in high property taxes.
