New York State Director Ashley Ranslow spoke with the Albany Times Union regarding reports of low sales tax revenue in the state due to a reduction in consumer spending: “Inflation began to hit consumers hard in recent years and hasn’t let up much since. That’s forced consumers to make difficult choices that’s often led to a restraint on spending, Ranslow said. ‘Keep in mind, these counties are down [in sales tax revenue] and with higher prices.
