The sponsor's argument

Why Robert Rolison says this is needed

The Dutchess County Legislature has requested legislation to extend an additional three-quarters of one percent sales tax in order to address the county's financial needs. This legislation will allow Dutchess County to continue to fund and invest in services such as rod mainte- nance, public health, and law enforcement for the well-being of the county's residents and visitors.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
