Governor Andrew Cuomo gathered with leaders of the legislature Friday to celebrate an on-time budget for the second year in a row.
Cuomo and majority party legislative leaders praised each other for their efforts in achieving two on time budgets in a row, which they say is considered a feat after decades of late budgets. Then, they took turns posing for pictures as the governor signed the first of several budget bills.
Cuomo said government is once again functioning, and it’s a “very proud day for the entire state”.
