...a BFD!
I am going to love watching how she handles governmental affairs for one of the most important states in the union.
And Ill bet the employees in her office and others are feeling relief that they will no longer have to deal with a bully.

Would have been nice if they'd have allowed her to govern before they handed down their list of demands, (or Else!)
I wish her the very best, & a most successful election ahead.
Congrats to you NY 💙

I'm hoping her first act will be to mandate masks in schools until 80% of the communities are vaccinated, ala MA rule. I think it's brilliant and puts the onus on the unvaccinated.
