BBB - Build Back Better

Governor Cuomo said that yesterday while he was also talking about re-opening NY’s businesses. It sounded good and positive; however, data still shows more than five thousand new cases and five hundred deaths per day. Today Cuomo goes to the White House, and I just don’t feel good about this visit.

Cuomo is the pandemic hero in many people’ eyes including me, but to learn that he will go to the White House today to discuss about methods to mitigate the pandemic and ways to re-open businesses. I just feel a little kow tow! WHY? Cuomo is providing an opportunity for Trump to (1) say “see, Cuomo comes to see me for helps,” and (2) to express “the implication of states bending to federal’s power.” Perhaps, Cuomo knows exactly what he’s doing, but after learning about this visit, I feel a little sad and perplexed.
