ALBANY — “The job numbers released today by the New York State Department of Labor show signs of progress. Most notably in the 17 months of continuous private-sector job growth and the nearly 30,000 private-sector jobs created in January,” said Heather Briccetti, president and CEO of The Business Council of New York State, Inc
ALBANY— "The Business Council strongly opposes the natural gas moratorium that the Assembly passed today. To those members who supported this moratorium, we say, for the past four years substantial State resources have been dedicated to the scientific review of shale gas extractions, it is time to listen to science and not to emotion and reject unnecessary delay
ALBANY— "We need to improve New York's economy and create good-paying private sector jobs. Raising the minimum wage will not do that.
The bill passed by the Assembly tonight would add an additional direct cost of nearly $4000 for each full-time minimum wage employee, plus indirect costs caused by 'wage compression,' as wages are adjusted for higher earning employees
