Gov. Andrew Cuomo

ALBANY — Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo issued a statement early this morning in regards to the passage of the State Budget on Tuesday.

Cuomo lauds the budget's spending plan and reforms and says New Yorkers should be proud of it.

His statement follows below in its entirety:

Tonight, both houses of the Legislature have successfully passed the 2015-16 Budget spending plan to allow for the continued operation of government. This is a plan that keeps spending under two percent, reforms New York’s education bureaucracy, implements the nation’s strongest and most comprehensive disclosure laws for public officials and makes the largest investment in the Upstate economy in a generation.

This is a Budget that every New Yorker can be proud of, and I look forward to continuing to work to move New York forward this legislative session and beyond.
