State Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins of Yonkers spoke at the announcement event.                                                                                                                                                       “Paying off New York’s Unemployment Insurance debt is a major victory for our entire economy,” Stewart-Cousins said. “Our nearly three million small businesses are New York’s true economic engine. As federal leaders imposed damaging tariffs and trade wars, we lifted a heavy burden off small businesses while strengthening the safety net for working people.”
