Op-ed: Progressive tax systems don’t drive away millionaires
Whenever New York lawmakers consider raising revenue to fund vital public services or social safety nets, a familiar chorus warns that the state’s wealthiest residents will pack their bags for low-tax havens like Florida. “Millionaire flight” alarmists, including stalwarts of business commentary, would have us believe that high marginal tax rates threaten the city and state’s economic tax bases.
Public availability of evidence-based mental health apps: a systematic review and meta-analysis of self-guided apps
Abstract Despite mental health apps having a rigorous evidence base, little is known about the proportion of efficacious apps that are publicly available. Our systematic review and meta-analysis identified self-guided mental health apps evaluated in controlled trials, determined their public availability, and examined how evidence quality and strength influence availability. A literature search identified 16,971 records, of which 110 studies, investigating 112 apps, met inclusion criteria.
Kathy Hochul’s New Budget Fails to Meet the Moment
The New York State budget negotiations drew to an anti-climactic close this week. This was not only the longest budget negotiation in the last sixteen years but also one of the most nonsensical. The enacted budget does almost nothing to protect the lives of hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers about to lose access to health care and food stamps in the wake of Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA).

City Council’s Housing Bills Would Make Housing Less Affordable
Executive Summary The City Council will likely vote next week on a series of “term sheet bills” that would legislate new rigid restrictions on city-financed affordable housing development and preservation.
FPI Briefing on the Federal Budget Reconciliation Bill
— Last Friday, July 4, 2925, President Trump signed a sprawling piece of legislation —referred to as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (“OBBBA”) — that enacts one of the most regressive set of tax and spending cuts seen in United States history.
This budget bill will Make America Hungry Again
Make America Healthy Again? More like “Make America Hungry Again.” In their stubborn pursuit of lowering taxes, especially for the rich, congressional Republicans are looking to cut spending on a vital resource for low-income children and families: The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — colloquially referred to as “SNAP.” The program, also known as “food stamps,” has been one of the most important anti-poverty programs in country since its expansion over the 1960s and 1970s.
Albany must prep for federal cuts
Over the past few weeks, hundreds of millions of dollars of federal aid have been abruptly pulled from New York’s mental health, public health, and flood protection programs through federal executive action. Simultaneously, congressional Republicans are preparing to impose up to $2 trillion in federal budget cuts over the next 10 years, which will be concentrated in cuts to Medicaid and food stamps — programs that provide millions of New Yorkers with health insurance and food security.
Op-ed: New York must invest in housing along with adopting City of Yes reforms
If anything is crystal clear after this November’s election, it’s that the affordability crisis in New York requires immediate action. Specifically, families and workers in the city can no longer tolerate skyrocketing rents. The city must take a two-fold approach to addressing this crisis: pass the zoning reforms included in City of Yes, and increase investment in housing affordability through expanded fiscal measures.
Climate Change Superfund bill is a sound fiscal choice
Gov. Hochul has not yet signed the Climate Change Superfund bill — likely due to concerns that this bill will increase New Yorkers’ energy costs. However, concerns about the costs of the bill — which would fund the state’s climate transition by imposing fees on the biggest polluters, are unwarranted. Instead, vetoing this bill would come at a high cost to all New Yorkers — for generations to come.
Fiscal Year 2025 Revenue Likely to Exceed State Projections by At Least $4 Billion
By Emily Eisner, Ph.D., Economist and Andrew Perry, Senior Policy Analyst March 15, 2024 Toplines: FPI’s model of State revenue growth projects FY25 revenue will likely exceed current forecasts by at least $4 billion. The DOB’s assumed growth rates for State revenue are very low by historical standards and are out of sync with most forecasts of U.S. economic growth over coming years.
Opinion: Hochul says a recession is coming. That’s why we must tax the rich.
February 24, 2023 03:32 PM ET We have learned time and again that austerity during a recession can result in prolonged pain and a delayed recovery. Nonetheless, Gov. Kathy Hochul has repeatedly used the threat of a looming recession to justify her hopes of not raising income taxes on the richest New Yorkers this session. With the budget process underway, the question of taxes is especially urgent.

Why Women's Marchers need to care about capitalism
On January 21st, an estimated 2.9 million people participated in Women’s Marches around the U.S., setting a record for the largest one-day protest in the nation’s history. For many feminists, a public display of enthusiasm of this degree is inspiring, perhaps marking the resurgence of a mass movement against the politics of the right.
