A week after being sworn in in Albany January 4th New York Senator Pam Helming voted Monday to permanently cap state spending and help ensure greater long-term fiscal discipline on state government, while also creating much needed relief for overburdened taxpayers.
"New York's school districts and local governments currently operate under a tax cap and I applaud my Senate colleagues for taking action to create a state spending cap," said Helming. "A state spending cap sends a strong message that Albany is committed to living within its means and will save taxpayers billions."
