The sponsor's argument

Why Mark Walczyk says this is needed

The county of Herkimer has requested this legislation to extend their authority to impose a mortgage recording tax in the amount of twenty- five cents for each one hundred dollars, until December 1, 2027.

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.
