Replace and repeal New York taxes first.

Via NY Daily News:

The state Democratic Party — controlled by Gov. Cuomo — unveiled a “replace and repeal” ad campaign tied to the federal tax act.

The announcement came Monday, the same day a federal corruption trial involving former Cuomo confidante and longtime aide Joseph Percoco began.

“New York is going to lead the charge to replace and repeal the GOP tax plan and send a clear message — any Republican who doesn’t take action now will be held accountable come November,” state Democratic Party Executive Director Geoff Berman said.

Cuomo in recent months has been outspoken about the federal tax cut plan hurting high-tax blue states like New York and California by severely restricting the federal deductibility of state and local income and property taxes.

He directed the state Democratic Party to launch an “aggressive” TV and digital media campaign urging the public to pressure Republicans in Congress to replace and repeal it.

In addition to the digital ad placements, people will be able to get email alerts and sign online petitions pushing the repeal and replace effort.
