State Senator Rev. Ruben Diaz, a Democrat from the Bronx, agrees. “Governor Andrew Cuomo’s widespread call for the banishment of all New Yorkers who don’t toe his liberal line sounds like something we might hear from the mouth of a tyrant condemning those who sit on the wrong side of his throne. Governor Andrew Cuomo’s presumptuous license to banish those who he has called “extreme conservatives” is an outright attack on millions of New Yorkers. It’s also an attack on the core principles of the Bill of Rights’ First Amendment freedoms.” - State Senator Rev. Ruben Diaz, 32nd District Blacklisted by King Cuomo (http://www.ny2agrassroots.com/blacklisted-by-king-cuomo/)
