What bothers me the most about this is that they are finally paying attention to this after the fact. The tax cut is law.
When this was being considered in the Senate, Gillebrand the Senator from New York was complaining about Bill Clnton's 20 year old affair with Lewinsky.
The Democrats knew what was coming and didn't saturate the airwaves with protests against this robbery. It's also possible that all of the networks were told to keep a lid on tax reform until it was passed and signed.
The Republicans are the party of big business hook line and sinker, and the Democrats are the Republican party lite. So that it appears that they are doing something they ***** and scream after it is done. Up to that point they are told to lay down and die.
That goes in the calculation for what New York gets back in federal dollars.
You said that. i'm asking : where are you getting that information?

The article concludes with this:
There is some good news. The state will benefit from some changes, notably a larger federal Medicaid reimbursement because of Obamacare, DiNapoli said.
Not clear what that has to do with the central bank

Democrats were not allowed to participate in the Trump GOP tax plan and the almost 500 page bill was given to them hours before the vote, filled with scribbles. When Chuck Schumer requested on camera to have the weekend for them to read the bill before voting, the GOP refused.
"Because the bill was given to lobbyists to read and change before senators saw it, and because the bill was given to us on a few hours' notice and has not been read fully or considered fully by a single senator, I move we adjourn until Monday so we can first read and then clean up this awful piece of legislation," Schumer said.
Democrats are blasting Republicans, arguing they are trying to rush the legislation through the Senate without giving lawmakers a chance to read it.

Gillibrand is a Democrat, none of the GOP lawmakers were going to take her complaints seriously, anyway.
It's not fair or equitable that the rich pay less and the poor pay more. The wealth in New York & California eclipses the wealth of Mississippi or Arkansas, so why should the 1% of states pay less than the poor states? Isn't that the opposite of what the Democratic party stands for? Everyone just needs to pay their fair share.
Indeed. Instead of blasting the feds for taking away deductions that favored tax and spend states, Cuomo and others in his situation should start reining in spending and lowering taxes.
Funny thing is, that's not even something Democrats in NYS will even think of.
Does that calculation include the economic benefits that NYC gets from having the Federal Reserve Bank of NY ?
There's a lot of financial regulations that funnel capital into blue states, and I often wonder if these "reports" capture the GDP increases from them.
DOn't even egage. I debunked red vs. blue state crap a long time ago listing a dozen things. Any thread pushing red vs. blue is crap or vice-versa.
