"Now is the time for new leaders to fight for working people. A more affordable New York starts with changing who represents us in Albany and passing policies that unrig our deeply inequitable tax system."
"Their corporate donors completely dictate their public persona, the problems they seek to address, and the solutions they're willing to entertain."
"This cowardice shows who they really see as their bosses: the millionaires, billionaires and CEOs who bankroll their campaigns, not the thousands of constituents who support making our state's tax system more equitable."
"The legislative package we support is broadly popular with a majority of New York voters across political affiliations and geographic regions."
New leadership is essential to address the affordability crisis in New York. Current establishment Democrats are influenced by corporate donors, which limits their willingness to propose significant reforms. They avoid supporting tax increases on the wealthy and profitable corporations, which could generate substantial public funds. This reluctance reveals their true allegiance to wealthy donors rather than constituents. A legislative package aimed at making the tax system more equitable enjoys broad support among New York voters, indicating a demand for change.
