Andrew Cuomo, Governor of New York

“Says that under the law, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio “can’t open” the city’s schools.”

PolitiFact rated this: Half True

PolitiFact says: New York state law does permit the governor to seize school-closing powers in a declared emergency, but Cuomo hasn’t seized those particular powers.
