With the April 1 deadline to pass a state budget for the next fiscal year just a week away, Mayor Eric Adams is throwing his weight behind expanding the state Earned Income Tax Credit, which he successfully lobbied for last year, and the child tax credit in the final Albany spending plan.
Adams rallied at 32BJ SEIU headquarters in lower Manhattan on Friday morning with the union’s leaders and heads of some of the city’s other powerful labor groups including the Hotel Trades Council (HTC) and District Council 37 (DC37) as well as state and city pols.
