balance the budget
Westchester County needs to pass a balanced, responsible budget that grapples honestly with our challenges as a County. Period. Unfortunately, thanks to a series of smoke and mirrors budgets, of which this past year's was the worst, we're facing a $54 Million budget deficit for this coming year.
We need to put Westchester County on sound financial footing and stop adding unsustainable debt that we'll eventually have to pay back with significant interest. Every time we vote to add debt, we're actually voting to raise property taxes more down the line. That's unacceptable, and I will continue to fight against unbalanced budgets.
