2022 NY Governor's race: on Budget & Economy


Joe Pinion: Claims Federal COVID aid used to push critical race theory

Calling it a "continuation of the left," Pinion criticized the state's use of federal COVID-19 relief funds to push critical race theory (CRT) in schools as well as the inability of others to anticipate it:

Letitia James: Moved to protect stimulus payments from debt collectors

This official guidance makes clear that banks and debt collectors cannot freeze or seize stimulus funds that are intended for New Yorkers, especially those most in need during this time. My office remains committed to protecting New Yorkers' rights, and ensuring that any institution that violates this guidance will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.
