Gov. Cuomo: Unify Senate Democrats Against Trump

Use every lever of power to unite Senate Democrats so New York can offer a clear progressive alternative to the Trump agenda and confront the excesses of Republicans in Washington.

Why is this important?

Democrats just won a numerical majority in New York's State Senate. But some senators who were elected as Democrats are considering caucusing with the Republicans.

With millions of New Yorkers facing imminent threats, handing power over to a minority of Trump Republicans would be unconscionable. Gov. Cuomo has the chance and obligation to show his leadership and unite the party so that New York can serve as a hub of resistance to Trump's hateful and dangerous agenda.

For years, Gov. Coumo has failed to vigorously support Senate Democrats. Now more than ever, it’s important that Democratic leaders stand up against the party of Trump, and Cuomo must use the full powers at his disposal to unite Senate Democrats.
