"It's my hope that this initiative will receive priority attention in Albany in 2016. During the last legislative session State Senator Andrea Stewart Cousins and Assemblyman Tom Abinanti pushed -- without success -- to help the Greenburgh school district get the funding that they should be entitled to but are not receiving from Albany,'' Feiner said.
According to a release by the Hastings PTA, New York State has been shortchanging all school districts for at least five years, forcing Hastings-on-Hudson schools to make hard budget choices and causing taxes to rise. They claim that had they received full funding last year, Hastings schools would have been eligible for a tax decrease.
