WFP: Not far enough

January
3

The Working Families Party, in its response to Spitzer’s speech, says his property tax proposals do not go far enough.

Dan Cantor, executive director of Working Families, called for the state to repeal what he called “the upper-income tax cuts passed in the ‘Rip Van Winkle’ era of Gov. Pataki” and move toward a more progressive income-tax structure.

“Gov. Spitzer often claims to take inspiration from Teddy Roosevelt. We also want him to aspire to the ideal of cousin Franklin,” said Cantor, referencing FDR’s New Deal.
