The Governor and Senator Skelos appear to be the partnership that is standing in defense of millionaires and in opposition to the public opinion. A growing and overwhelming majority of New Yorkers 80% in a recent poll support the Millionaire’s Tax. Apparently, Senator Skelos is opposed to the compromise that would cut taxes on half millionaires and is holding out, along with Governor Cuomo, for tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires. The result will be record setting school cuts for kids.”
