Jobs bill to give N.Y. $3B BY VALERIE BAUMAN The Associated Press
ALBANY — A federal jobs bill expected to pass this week in Washington is expected to bring $2.3 billion in budget aid to New York state, and another $700 million to help counties and New York City. Sen. Chuck Schumer said Monday the aid could help the state and counties to avoid cuts in spending, layoffs, or increased taxes. The assistance will extend a boost in federal Medicaid reimbursements originally passed as part of the federal stimulus. Schumer said Monday the bill would send New York an estimated $2.3 billion over the first six months of 2011, with upstate New York and Long Island counties in line to receive an additional $200 million and New York City getting $500 million. The state budget due April 1 includes a deficit projected at more than $8 billion. The current budget totals about $130 billion.

Chuck Schumer walks into a deli and wants the leanest most expensive cut of pastrami for his pastrami sandwich, only the deli has fatty pastrami at double the cost of the lean pastrami offered at the deli down the street. What does Chuck do? He sends some friends to the deli up the street to hold 'em up robbing from the 'rich' to give to the fatty pastrami deli 'poor bastards'. (dramatic music) will the pastrami last? will the people stay? will Chuck get GERD? will Chuck get re-elected? (dramatic music) will Chuck loose his place in line?
