Stopping Cuomo from removing ventilators and PPE from upstate NY

The Issue

Earlier today on April the 3rd 2020 as New York state is currently on the fast track to being one of the worst states thus far effected by COVID-19 Governor Andrew Cuomo has stated that he is going to be removing "excess" ventilators and PPE from upstate NY. At this time we all must band together against the injustice of leaving Upstate NY in a weakened and vulnerable state. Our local hospitals are already struggling to provide sufficient PPE to the essential workers that are showing up everyday. COVID-19 is still spreading and the numbers of those contracting this illness is growing downstate AND Upstate. Sign this petition in hopes to stop Governor Andrew Cuomo from seizing our medical equipment and supplies to be sent downstate. Please fight for our right to remain protected.
