“The Governor's decision to quietly capitulate to left wing advocacy groups makes it clear where his priorities lie. Providing vaccines to prisoners over our vulnerable populations - including those with cancer, immune diseases, or other potentially fatal comorbidities - follows the politics, not the science.
“The Governor has made it clear he's not interested in listening to the Legislature. This decision makes it clear he's also not interested in hearing from vulnerable New Yorkers.”
