CDNY Continues to Back Democratic State Senate Majority

The College Democrats of New York are shocked by the backroom dealings that resulted in today’s events on the floor of the New York State Senate. We are deeply troubled that partisan politics may get in the way of crucial legislation and balancing the budget. We urge the State Senate to put partisanship aside and continue to work for their constituents, New Yorkers, and resolve this matter honestly and fairly. No matter what the outcome, we are going to continue to fight for more and better Democratic State Senators in 2010. The voters of New York State elected a Democratic majority in the legislature and their will should be respected and reflected in the State Senate leadership.

“As the CBO analysis shows, the Recovery Act has lessened the effects of the worst recession in a generation and is beginning to help turn things around.

“The CBO found the Recovery Act is responsible for 600,000 to 1.6 million jobs and has raised GDP by 1.2 to 3.2 percent. Without the Recovery Act these jobs would have either disappeared or never existed in the first place and this positive economic growth would not have been possible.

“Our economy still has a long way to go and we will not rest until everyone who wants a job can find one, but the economy is no longer in a free-fall. Democrats in Congress showed real leadership by supporting the Recovery Act. Unfortunately, Republicans - the Party of NO -refused to offer an alternative. They stood on the sidelines as President Obama and Congressional Democrats took the steps necessary to reverse the economic decline they inherited after eight years of failed Republican economic policies. Now, by cheering for the Act’s failure, the GOP remains on the wrong side of history. As President Obama and Democrats continue to take steps to strengthen our economy, it’s time for Republicans to stop saying 'No', quit playing politics and start working with us on behalf of American families and workers.” Read More...
