Cuomo, Faso trade Twitter barbs

Mar 24, 2017 12:02 am

Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Rep. John Faso have continued a war of words on Twitter all week, after Faso and other New York Republicans signed on for an amendment shifting Medicaid costs from New York counties to the state. Cuomo says the Republican healthcare plan, or Trumpcare, will cost Columbia-Greene Memorial Hostpital $2,444,439. Faso, meanwhile, tweets that Greene County homeowners will save $307 on property taxes under the plan, and Columbia County homeowners will save $361 each. Cuomo tweets that 2.7 million New Yorkers will lose coverage, and the state will lose $6.9 billion in funding. Faso has also tweaked Cuomo on Twitter about several subjects not related to his job in Washington D.C., including the re-upping of the millionaire's tax in Albany, and a New York state rebate for electric vehicles.
