Assemblyman Michael J. Cusick
Cutting the MTA payroll tax provides relief to over 700,000 small businesses
and self-employed New Yorkers.
The new law will:
- ELIMINATE the tax for small businesses with annual payrolls of less than $1.25 million
- ELIMINATE the tax for the self-employed who earn less than $50,000 per year
- REDUCE the tax for companies with payrolls less than $1.75 million
- EXEMPT all Catholic and private schools on Staten Island
“Slashing the MTA payroll tax is good for taxpayers and good for small businesses – which
create 8 out of every 10 jobs.”
