Gov. Cuomo Threatens to Reverse New York Reopenings After Receiving 25,000 Complaints
Epoch Times ^ | 06/15/2020 | Isabel Van Brugen

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has warned that the state’s phased reopening may have to be reversed after tens of thousands of complaints of violations of social distancing and other emergency requirements were received statewide.

The governor revealed June 14 during a daily press briefing that more than 25,000 complaints were made against businesses in New York—the state hardest hit by the CCP virus—with the majority of the complaints in Manhattan and the Hamptons, affluent beach communities on the east end of Long Island.

We have received 25,000 complaints of reopening violations.

Bars or restaurants that violate the law can lose their liquor license.

People with open containers in the street can be fined.

Police & protesters not wearing masks can be fined.

Local gov’t must enforce the law.

— Andrew Cuomo (@NYGovCuomo) June 14, 2020

“We’re getting reports from all across the state that there are large gatherings, social distancing is being violated, people are not wearing masks,” Cuomo said. “We have gotten 25,000 complaints to the state of businesses that are in violation of the reopening plan.”

The state has utilized health guidelines to instruct its reopening and continued to see all measures of infection drop—new cases, deaths, hospitalizations, and positive rates among those getting tested. New York City is currently in the second phase of its reopening plan.

Cuomo warned New York City and Long Island officials that their reopenings are at risk if they don’t stop further large public gatherings that he said are threatening progress on curbing the spread of the CCP virus, commonly referred to as the novel coronavirus.

“Yes, there is a very real possibility that we would roll back the reopening in those areas,” he said at a briefing.

I saw a "My governor is an idiot" bumper sticker here in Washington state.....

if ONLY the states would award partial electoral votes instead of all their electoral votes in the presidential elections...

states like Washington, Oregon, NY, etc have substantial conservative people and their votes are basically not counted due to the inner city crooks...

now I'm thinking the abrupt change from the Falsi cronies about "masks are not necessary" to "everyone should wear a mask" was just an excuse to allow the rioters free reign.....allowed them to hide their ugly faces...

what a sham....

And this is just another example of why we chose to leave that God forsaken state.

BS! How convenient is it for the Emperor to continue his illegal hold over the residents of New York State. I could easy say there are 100, 000 complaints to open the state back up!

Meanwhile, Steve Scalise just sent Cuomo a letter...

@SteveScalise
Just sent letters to the Democrat governors of NY, NJ, CA, PA, and MI demanding they explain why they ignored protocols and forced COVID-19 patients into nursing homes.

The outcome was devastating.

Families who lost loved ones deserve answers. This tragedy was avoidable.
