Too little, too late assholes. That monster has already killed at least 15,000 people.
Democratic leaders of the New York State Senate are reportedly working to strip New York Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo of his emergency powers in the aftermath of revelations about his handling of pandemic.
Democratic and Republican lawmakers have been demanding answers since a top Cuomo aide admitted that the Governor’s administration hid data on senior deaths at nursing homes and long-term care facilities over fears of a Department of Justice investigation. During a press conference after the revelation, Cuomo denied the allegations.
According to The New York Times, a vote to strip the Governor of emergency powers could come as early as next week. The news comes after it was reported that the Department of Justice and the FBI have launched a formal investigation into Cuomo's coronavirus task force with regard to its policies affecting nursing homes and long-term care facilities in response to the coronavirus outbreak.
Last week, New York Democrat lawmakers issued a statement calling for stripping Cuomo of his emergency powers.
"Without exception, the New York State Constitution calls for the Legislature to govern as a co-equal branch of government. While COVID-19 has tested the limits of our people and state – and, early during the pandemic, required the government to restructure decision making to render rapid, necessary public health judgments – it is clear that the expanded emergency powers granted to the Governor are no longer appropriate."
