Exempt Human Service Not-For-Profits From Governor Paterson's MTA Mobility Tax

This petition was published by Diane Frazier on Mar 12, 2010

We, the undersigned, call on the NYS Legislature to exempt human service not-for-profits from Governor Paterson's proposed MTA Mobility Payroll Tax.

Taxing not-for-profit human services providers reduces the amount of funding they have to deliver essential services to the public. This tax could not come at a worse time. The on-going economic crisis has had a profoundly negative impact on the human services sector; private and public funding is down while the demand for services continues to grow.

This is not the time to impose another tax on not-for-profits who provide the essential services our most vulnerable populations so desperately need!
