Walsh Proud to Support Plan to Suspend State Sales Tax

A Statement by Assemblywoman Mary Beth Walsh (R,C- Ballston)

"Inflation and demand have risen to an all-time high, and we as legislators need to ease the burden of New Yorkers who are working hard to get what they need.

“I’m proud to join the Assembly Minority Conference in advocating for “Inflation Relief & Consumer Assistance Plan” that will suspend state sales taxes on a variety of everyday items, like gasoline, personal care products, housekeeping supplies and food purchases.

“Our residents will feel the positive effects of this desperately needed bill firsthand as they buy necessary items like gas and food each day for their families. This will go a long way toward keeping our economy afloat and providing desperately needed relief to overburdened middle-class families.”
