Schumer says New Yorkers paid nearly $250 more for heating as energy costs rise

WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer says new data shows New Yorkers are paying significantly more to heat their homes, pointing to rising energy costs tied to ongoing geopolitical tensions. According to an analysis cited by Schumer, the average New York household using heating oil paid about $248 more in March 2026 compared to the same month last year — an increase of nearly 40%. The data, based on figures from the U.S. Energy Information Administration and other sources, reflects sharp increases in home heating oil prices over the past year. Schumer said the higher costs are adding pressure to families already dealing with inflation and rising fuel prices. The senator also raised concerns about the future of the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program, which helps residents cover heating and cooling costs. He noted that nearly 1.7 million households in New York received assistance through the program last year. Schumer said eliminating or reducing the program would make it more difficult for families and seniors to manage energy expenses, particularly as prices remain elevated. The report also found New Yorkers have collectively paid hundreds of millions more for gasoline since energy prices began rising, further increasing overall household costs. Schumer called for action to address rising energy prices and protect assistance programs as New Yorkers continue to face higher utility and fuel bills.

Tenney highlights tax relief claims tied to 2025 law on Tax Day

Rep. Claudia Tenney used Tax Day to spotlight what she described as sweeping tax relief for families and workers, pointing to provisions enacted under a 2025 federal law backed by Republicans. The New York Republican said the legislation is already delivering higher take-home pay, larger refunds, and reduced tax burdens for many households, while also aiming to boost long-term economic growth. According to Tenney’s office, a family of four with two children could see up to $10,900 in increased take-home pay, alongside an estimated 10% rise in average tax refunds. The release also claims that many working-class families earning up to $73,000 now face no federal income tax liability, with average tax cuts around $2,300. The measure, referred to as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” was signed into law on July 4, 2025. Tenney said it includes provisions eliminating taxes on tips, overtime pay, Social Security benefits, and auto loan interest, while expanding the Child Tax Credit and standard deduction on a permanent basis. Tenney also pointed to broader economic projections tied to the law, including support for more than 7.2 million jobs and an estimated $1.2 trillion increase in real gross domestic product over the next four years. “On Tax Day, families across Upstate New York are seeing the real benefits of commonsense tax relief,” Tenney said in a statement. “These policies are putting more money back into the pockets of hardworking Americans, strengthening small businesses, and driving economic growth in communities like ours.” The announcement comes as taxpayers across the country file their 2025 returns, with federal tax policy and its impacts remaining a central issue in ongoing political and economic debates.
