ALBANY - Let the stimulus money flow.
About $24 billion in federal aid from the American Rescue Plan will start heading to New York governments this week, the U.S Treasury announced Monday.
The windfall, part of $350 billion nationally for state and local governments, will be a boon for the state government, cities and large towns, allowing them to close budget gaps and stave off funding cuts after the COVID-19 pandemic shuttered businesses and crippled the economy. This funding puts the power in the hands of the people and enables local governments to build back stronger, safer, and healthier, Rep. Antonio Delgado, D-Rhinebeck, Dutchess County, said in a statement.

ALBANY - Early retirement proposals for New York teachers and public workers face an uncertain future in the state Legislature before the legislative session ends next month.
The bills sponsors said in recent days that a measure that would allow an early retirement plan for state and municipal employees appears unlikely to pass, but one specifically for teachers and school administrators may be gaining traction.
Assemblyman Tom Abinanti told the USA TODAY Network New York on Friday that he s hopeful the teachers union and school districts could work out a deal that would allow educators with 25 years of service who have reached age 55 to retire early without penalty.
