Lawmakers near MTA bailout tax to curb fare hike
Albany negotiators inch toward a 0.4 percent payroll tax across 12‑county MTA region to raise up to 300 million dollars. If approved, the plan would spare a fare increase while spreading costs across New York City and suburban counties. Key figures include Senate Leader Warren Anderson and Assembly Speaker Stanley Fink as talks continue amid budget deficit debates.
