New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo sharply criticized the $2.2 trillion U.S. emergency relief bill, saying it fails to adequately address the needs of local governments to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Speaking on March 26, Cuomo said the economic toll of the CCP virus outbreak will be dramatic in New York and castigated federal officials for what he called a failure to address lost revenue in the relief package.
