Gov. Cuomo vetoes bill that would have helped underserved Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders - NBCAsianAmerica
”This bill would create new financial obligations and operational intricacies not accounted for within the state’s financial plan, and with insufficient time for implementation,” he wrote. “Such funding decisions should be addressed within the context of the budget.”
The bill would have not only prevented exclusion, but more precise data would also uncover hidden challenges the AAPI communities face and aid legislators in figuring out how and where to allocate resources, Niou said. Existing services including poverty relief, health outcome improvement programs, and language access within the programs could be made more effective.
Cuomo also wrote that he was concerned the bill’s requirement to collect data on “an individual’s place of birth and national origin will have unintended consequences” given the “overly aggressive” approach the Trump administration has taken to immigration enforcement. In Trump’s first fiscal year in office, deportations in New York City increased by 150 percent, from the final full fiscal year of the Obama administration, according to a report from Comptroller Scott Stringer’s office.
