    Press Release from Senator Griffo's Office:

    Sen. Griffo to serve on main budget conference committee

    ALBANY – With budget negotiations underway in Albany, Senate Deputy Minority
    Leader Joseph Griffo, R-I-C-Rome, announced today that he is serving on the
    state Legislature’s main Budget Conference Committee. Members of the
    committee include other legislative leaders such as Senate Minority Leader John
    Flanagan, Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, Assembly Speaker
    Carl Heastie and Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb.

    “I am concerned that the recent budget proposals will add billions of dollars in
    new taxes and fees and that the Governor and Democratic legislative leaders are
    at odds over what should or should not be included in the final State Budget,”
    Sen. Griffo said. “The bottom line is too many residents and businesses are
    fleeing our state because they are overtaxed and burdened by onerous
    regulations. We should be finding ways to invest more in education and
    infrastructure, as well as providing real and meaningful tax relief so that residents
    and business owners don’t have to look elsewhere for a better life and more
    opportunity.”
