What's The [Data] Point? Episode 101 -- $7.4 Billion, with EJ McMahon  [You can download What's The [Data] Point? wherever you get your podcasts, including on iTunes]

$7.4 billion is how much New York State personal income tax was paid in 2018 by residents of other states. This revenue stream may be threatened if a lawsuit over taxation of out-of-state telecommuting residents prevails. Today's guest, the Empire Center’s E.J. McMahon, explains why this lawsuit is so important, and also discussed a variety of elements of Governor Cuomo's new Executive Budget. And, in her final episode as co-host, Maria Doulis offers a brief analysis of Mayor de Blasio's new Preliminary Budget.
