The Office of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo: Following his trip to Poland where he attended events commemorating the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, Governor Cuomo today proposed as part of his FY 2021 Executive Budget an additional $25 million in security grant funding for organizations vulnerable to hate crimes.
The governor also proposed expanding
eligibility for these security grants to include houses of worship. The governor made these announcements today at the inaugural "No Hate In Our
State" security grants conference at the Jacob K. Javits Convention
Center in Manhattan, where he convened over 600 community leaders and
clergy as well as state public safety officials and security experts to
discuss best practices to keep communities safe and access grant
funding.
