Letter to New Yorkers: Help Reform Your Government

by Cuomo

Albany, NY (May 13, 2011)

The last major reorganization of New York State government occurred over eighty years ago. Since then, our government has grown into a sprawling and expensive bureaucracy.

To rebuild an effective state government, Governor Cuomo has created the Spending and Government Efficiency (SAGE) Commission. This team of business leaders, management experts, and academics will help streamline the government and save taxpayers' money.

Now, through this commission, all New Yorkers have the opportunity to directly contribute to the renewal of our state. Governor Cuomo wants to hear your ideas for cutting costs, finding efficiencies, and doing more with less.

With your help, we can redesign our state government to bring long-term savings and better services to all New Yorkers.
