"Delivering on our commitment to make life more affordable for every New Yorker. This year, New Yorkers will see more money back in their pockets when they file their taxes - including no taxes on tips, overtime pay, and Social Security. We also increased the State and Local Tax deduction, also known as SALT, quadrupling the previous cap; increased the Child Tax Credit; and made interest paid on American-manufactured vehicles tax deductible."
"I regularly hear from constituents who contact my office and their feedback helps guide my legislative priorities. I raise these concerns during committee meetings and other hearings, and use my role in Congress to push for real solutions - whether that's lowering costs, cutting government red tape, or fixing problems uncovered through casework - so the voices of our community are heard and acted upon in Washington."
Top legislative priorities focus on making life more affordable through targeted tax relief for New Yorkers. Measures include exempting tips, overtime pay, and Social Security from state taxes; quadrupling the SALT deduction cap; increasing the Child Tax Credit; and allowing tax deduction for interest on American-manufactured vehicle purchases. Engagement with constituents guides legislative action: 44 bills introduced and nearly 300 cosponsored in 2025 reflect constituent concerns. District offices assist with federal agency casework including the IRS, Social Security, and Immigration. Last year the office closed nearly 3,400 cases and returned over $7 million to constituents through casework.
