Hawley calls on governor not to repair damaged 'I Love NY' signs posted along Thruway

By Howard B. Owens

Press release:

“This week, residents of Western New York were devastated by a hurricane-like storm that caused major damage and left thousands without power. We are now focused on cleaning up the mess left behind by the storm and ensuring that everyone is safe and has power.

“The powerful winds blew many signs down in my district, including at least three ‘I Love NY’ signs at mile post 381 on the Thruway just east of Batavia. These gimmicks cost taxpayers $25 million and were installed by the governor despite being in violation of federal law.

"I am calling on the governor not to waste another cent of taxpayer money on these illegal signs and put that money into repairing our infrastructure and the damages from this horrific windstorm that wreaked havoc on our region.”

If Steve Hawley or anyone else thinks for one second that Little Andy gives a big rats a$$ about out tax dollars or what people think and want, try again, he's only there to serve his own agenda and special interests.
