NYS Senator Eric Adams urges a comprehensive focus on developing a fiscally responsible budget and a cessation of all discussion of Governor Paterson’s resignation pending the outcome of a thorough investigation into any charges against him.
 
Senator Adams states:        “The State of New York faces unprecedented fiscal difficulties.  The promulgation of a carefully crafted budget is our highest priority.  It is of utmost importance that we tackle and solve the challenging issues facing our state, and I strongly urge that all our attention be devoted to these matters.
