A statement from Assemblyman Ken Blankenbush (R,C,I-Black River)
March 19, 2020
“As our state is in the middle of a public health crisis, there’s talk that our governor is trying to shove his ridiculous policy ideas, such as legalizing marijuana and banning hydro-fracking, into the state budget,” said Blankenbush. “What we should be doing is addressing our state’s finances in a responsible way as we navigate through these trying times. We can revisit these far-reaching policies at a later date when we can debate them on their merits. Now’s not the time. New Yorkers deserve better from their government.”
