NY's Balance of Payments With Washington Remains Positive for Now
Federal pandemic relief funds resulted in New York having a positive balance of payments with Washington, with the state ranking 42nd in federal fiscal year (FFY) 2023 on a per capita basis, according to a report issued by Comptroller DiNapoli.
