Statement From Kathryn S. Wylde, President & CEO
“The Partnership for New York City endorses the financial plan put forward by Lieutenant Governor Richard Ravitch. This is the single most important action that New York State could take to demonstrate its commitment to fiscal discipline and a competitive business environment.”
“Business is emerging from the global recession prepared to make major investment decisions to determine where future employment centers will be located. Companies will look elsewhere if New York does not prove its commitment to fiscal responsibility and economic growth.”
