Schumer has joined with Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) to offer a tax cut to businesses that hire a worker that had been without work for at least 60 days prior to employment. Senator Schumer met with executives of Star Kay White, Ron Hicks of the Rockland County Economic Development Corporation, Al Samuels of the Rockland Business Association, and several other business and community leaders in the region.
