Cuomo: Senate's $2 trillion coronavirus bill would be 'terrible' for New York

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo ripped the Senate’s multitrillion-dollar coronavirus response package Wednesday as being “terrible” for his state, arguing that the $3.8 billion in relief for his state it would offer is only a “drop in the bucket.”

The Democrat’s blunt criticism of the bill – which is currently working its way through Congress – comes as New York is dealing with 30,811 confirmed coronavirus cases.

“It would really be terrible for the state of New York,” Cuomo told reporters Wednesday from its capital of Albany.

“We are looking at a revenue shortfall of nine, 10, 15 billion dollars. This response to this virus has probably already cost us $1 billion. It will probably cost us several billion dollars when we are done,” he added, noting that the House's coronavirus relief bill had offered a higher figure of $17 billion.

“New York City only gets $1.3 billion from this package, that is a drop in the bucket as to need,” Cuomo continued. “I spoke to our house delegation this morning, I said to them ‘This doesn’t do it... [and] that we really need their help.”
