Assemblyn Curran Discusses 'Mixed Bag' 2013-14 State Budget

Assemblyman Brian Curran, R-Lynbrook:

“This year’s budget had many difficult challenges to overcome, including confronting a $1.5 billion budget deficit.  While there were many successes for Nassau families and seniors in the final budget, many of these victories were tempered by the attachment of short-sighted policies of the past.  I am delighted that there are no new taxes or fees in this budget – and that spending was kept below a 2-percent increase."
