Play the video (06/22/07)HAUPPAUGE - Suffolk County Executive Steve Levy attempted to complete a deal Friday with some state assemblymen that he claims are blackmailing the county.
A group of Hispanic assemblymen is holding up the renewal of a Suffolk sales tax in response to Levy’s opposition of a hiring hall for illegal immigrants. Over $300 million is being held back from Suffolk County. Levy’s office said that money goes to pay for services like roads and police.
Suffolk officials said taxes may need to be raised and programs will need to be cut if the county does not receive the money from the state.
Despite working all day, a deal was not reached.“In questions of power…let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.” –Thomas Jefferson
