"Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg called yesterday for a sizable new income tax on commuters who work, but don't live, in New York City, setting the stage for almost certain conflict with some of the state officials whose approval he would need to impose it. The proposal elicited jeers from the leaders of neighboring communities."
