Biaggi Celebrates New Law Limiting Hate Symbols on State Property

In a statement following the announcement, Biaggi said, “Symbols of hate have no place in our society, let alone on State property. With the signing of my bill, we are drawing a clear line in the sand.” She added, “By limiting hateful symbols from being glorified on State property, New York will denounce images that represent violence while still acknowledging our nation’s shameful history of oppression. This bill allows New York State to lead by example, and discourage the perpetuation of symbols that do not represent our values of justice and inclusion. Today, we say no to hate.”
