Andrew Cuomo lambasted local politicians who oppose his deal to bring Amazon's second "headquarters" to Long Island City, saying, "we have to make Amazon a reality." > "For the state Senate to oppose Amazon was governmental malpractice," Cuomo said at a news conference on Long Island, where he discussed the state budget for the region. "And if they stop Amazon from coming to New York, they're going to have the people of New York state to explain it to. It is irresponsible to allow political opposition to overcome sound government policy."
