SARATOGA SPRINGS, June 12 — With his gubernatorial rivals trying to paint him as a tax-and-spend Democrat, Attorney General Eliot Spitzer unveiled today a plan to cut property taxes by $6 billion over three years, targeting the middle class and senior citizens. Mr. Spitzer also proposed $11 billion worth of budget cuts and initiatives over three years to pay for the plan, leaning most heavily on Medicaid, and did not rule out layoffs of state workers.
