Dear Parents and Supporters of Catholic Education,
The Governor imposed an MTA payroll tax on all employers. This tax was also placed on schools. However, it was also decided to reimburse the public schools for the tax paid.
Assemblywoman Audrey Pheffer is a strong supporter of ensuring that ALL of the schools, public and private (religious) be included in this reimbursement process. She and the other members of the State Assembly included a proposal in the Assembly’s budget reimbursing all schools.
However, the MTA payroll tax reimbursement was not included in the Governor’s original proposal or in the Senate’s budget nor did the Senate pass the separate legislation.
We urge you to take a couple of minutes to contact the the Governor’s office at 518-474-8370, Senator Sampson, Majority Conference Leader and Senator Carl Kruger. Sponsor of S.8404, to express your support for the passage of this bill. The Senate switchboard telephone number is 518-455-2800.
Tell them you support reimbursement of the MTA tax to religious schools as well as to public schools. They will then ask you for your zip code. That’s all you have to do. You will help keep additional money in the school for school use instead of giving it to the state.
We thank Assemblywoman Pfeffer and the other members of the State Assembly for their support of Catholic schools.
Thank you,
Sister Francis Marie
