Club member Carrie Woerner was our speaker Thursday, giving an update on the state budget process in her capacity as a member of the NYS Assembly. Carrie expressed some skepticism about the proposals from Gov. Andrew Cuomo that are designed to get around the new federal restrictions on tax deductions. She also discussed local issues, staying to talk with her fellow members well after the formal end of the meeting.
In other business, we are only a little over a couple of weeks away from an education deadline. Our scholarship chair, Barbara Conner, asks:
