Andrew Cuomo in 2022 NY Governor's race


On Crime: Signed police reform package, including ban on chokeholds

The governor has repeatedly called for the repeal of 50-A, a statute used by police departments to keep disciplinary records secret. Included in the package is a repeal of 50-A, a ban on chokeholds and a ban on false race-based 911 calls. One bill will clarify that a person not under arrest has the right to record police activity and maintain custody and control of the recording. The governor called the package "nation-leading criminal justice and police reform bills."
