A Statement from The Business Council of New York State

ALBANY, NY (12/05/2011)(readMedia)-- The Business Council understands that there are conversations going on between the Governor, Senate and Assembly. We had been asked for comment but cannot, of course, comment on a plan until we have seen a plan.

We have total confidence in the Governor and his commitment to enhance New York's role as a pro-business state.

There is no doubting his commitment to grow the economy and create jobs for New Yorkers and we look forward to continuing to support him in that effort.
