Suozzi’s bullsh*ting on affordability
ICYMI – Tom Suozzi penned an op-ed this weekend in Newsday discussing what he sees as “the central issue people face: affordability.”
But just last week, Suozzi claimed TWICE he wants people around the country to pay higher taxes.
Suozzi had a lengthy history of raising taxes as county executive of Nassau County:
- In 2002, Suozzi raised taxes by close to 20 percent. Property taxes increased by more than $125 million for residents that year.
- In 2009, there was an increase in property tax of close to 4 percent, or about $40 million.
- In 2009, Suozzi proposed a tax on energy use for Nassau County residents, costing close to $40 million.
This summer, Suozzi supported a 16% tax hike on Long Islanders and voted to cut the child tax credit in half.
“While Suozzi preaches the need for “affordability”, he has raised taxes on New Yorkers multiple times. Suozzi wants to raise taxes on American citizens to pay for Democrats’ wish list of taxpayer-funded health care for illegal immigrants, DEI projects in foreign countries and socialist price controls.”-CLF Spokeswoman Lydia Hall
