Years of aggressive
tax reductions and a new effort to contain the state's debt
are receiving credit for two positive new announcements about
New York's fiscal health made recently by Governor Pataki.
The Governor
announced on Dec

as strong as it can be if we continue to improve our state's business climate.
The Governor's

they invest in New York
Governor
Pataki announced a broad plan to strengthen the Upstate New
York economy, including proposals to adopt a "single sales
factor" that would apply corporate income tax to manufacturers
only on their sales in the state, and to eliminate the alternative
minimum tax
A Message from the President of The Business Council of New York State, Inc.
New York is on the right economic track.
Ten years ago, you couldn’t say that. For many years before the middle of the 1990s, New York had been in a downward spiral. We were hemorrhaging jobs. In 1991 alone, New York State lost more than 300,000 jobs

Today Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno and his colleagues in the Senate
Majority proposed
a farsighted investment in the life sciences in New York. We think this is
a great idea.
The proposed programs would pay intellectual, technological, and economic
dividends for generations
ALBANYThe
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has indicated that a large-scale
dredging of the Hudson River is its preferred option for removing PCBs in
sediment at the river's bottom.
We oppose this
plan. We are unconvinced about the effectiveness of dredging and of the need
to do it
