The sponsor's argument

Why Patricia Fahy says this is needed

The Albany County Legislature has requested legislation that would authorize the County to continue to impose an additional one percent sales and compensating use tax for the period through November 30, 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.
