Long Island politician wont yield on immigration
Tagged: Long Island, New YorkPosted on: June 25th, 2007“A suburban politician accused state lawmakers of “blackmail” on Monday after they held up approval of a $320 million sales tax package because he wont support a hiring hall for immigrants in his county.
The state Legislature adjourned Friday without taking action on the tax measure, although Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver and others have said the issue could be revisited before a Nov. 30 deadline.”
