Cuomo been fighting back against recent calls to raise taxes on the wealthy to help with the $30 billion deficit the city has incurred from the pandemic – arguing this will be the nail in the coffin that prompts the wealthy to hold off on returning to the city.
".. one percent of the population [of N.Y.C.] pays 50 percent of the taxes. And they’re the most mobile people on the globe,” Cuomo said.
