A handful of Rats joined the Republican minority in the New York Assembly to cobble together a majority to strip Biden ally Governor Andrew Cuomo of his special powers under the Permanent State of Siege he declared a year ago. The Assembly enacted the legislation over the objections of Cuomo, the Rat party bosses, and the lying media.
Statement from Speaker Carl Heastie Clarifying Misinformation on Legislative Agreement to Terminate the Governor's Emergency Powers
Fact #1
The legislation immediately repeals the Governor’s expanded emergency powers and he cannot issue any new directives going forward.
Fact #2
The Governor must justify to the Legislature the extension or modification of any existing directives every 30 days.
Fact #3
The Legislature can, by a simple majority vote, repeal any executive order at any time.
Fact #4
The bill allows the Legislature to undo the state of emergency.
Fact #5
We did not negotiate this bill with the Governor.

A few Republicans voted against the bill saying they would vote for nothing short of the impeachment and removal of Cuomo and his prosecution and jailing for his great crimes against the people of New York, and the convening of a Truth and Reconciliation Commission in front of which all Rats would be frog-marched to have their guilt officially recorded for history.
Cuomo has issued nearly 100 orders related to the coronavirus pandemic, according to debate in the Senate on Friday morning.
Sen. Andrew Lanza, R-Staten Island, on Friday complained that the bill would not prevent Cuomo from acting unilaterally and continuing directives he has issued under the emergency powers authorization.
Lanza, who said he would vote against the bill for that reason, blasted “one-man rule” and the effects from “when you have one man have absolute power over your lives” since last March.
“If I would have told anyone two years ago that we were going to stand by and let a governor to tell student athletes that they couldn’t play” or tell students they could not put on a play “people would say, you’re crazy, no way, no how is that happening,” Lanza said.
The move to strip Cuomo’s powers underscore what has been a growing rift between the governor and lawmakers from his own party.
Cuomo for years has been able to enforce his political will with less effective pushback from the Senate and Assembly than his predecessors faced.
