Miller blasts Carey over tax refund delays in Albany
Assemblyman Hy Miller, decrying planned $150 million refunds as insufficient, urges action to stop delaying thousands of New Yorkers’ tax refunds. He calls withholding an interest-free loan, notes $400 million to $450 million annual refunds, and favors short-term borrowing or pulling the governor’s tail to compel timely payments.

New York Assembly Proposes $15 Million Toxic Cleanup Fund
State Assembly Democrats push a $15 million cleanup fund paid by licensed hazardous waste handlers. The plan, led by Speaker Stanley Fink and colleagues, mirrors a 1980 federal Superfund concept, targeting at least 680 inactive sites but only two on federal lists for potential funding. Fees would be $7.50 per ton or 3 cents per gallon, with lower rates for storage beyond 90 days.
