Cuomo turns to abortion rights ahead of Trump’s court pick
With President Donald Trump set to nominate a new Supreme Court justice, Gov. Andrew Cuomo and other Democrats reiterated their desire to update New York’s abortion laws in case the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling is re-considered and modified.
Cuomo, who is seeking a third term, on Monday announced mostly redundant contraception regulations and then blasted Republicans who control the state Senate for not taking up the Reproductive Health Act. The governor’s campaign committee, Cuomo 2018, also released an ad about the issue, the New York Daily News reported.
