New York Governor Andrew Cuomo threatened to withhold funding for schools and local governments that fail to comply with the state’s shutdown orders.
The state is sending a warning to New York City, Orange County, Rockland County, the Town of Ramapo, and the village of Spring Valley. If schools in these areas are found to be operating contrary to the state’s shutdown rules, they will lose funding, as will the local governments that do not shut the schools down.
