Leave the flag alone

Posted

Today’s local daily paper, 01/15/20, described the Governor’s proposed change to our state flag by adding the phrase “e pluribus unum”. This phrase is already on The Great Seal of the United States and I find the Governor’s attempt to add it to our state flag another pathetic attempt to establish his legacy. Isn’t it enough he renamed the Tappan Zee Bridge? Leave the state flag alone.

If he really wants to leave the state a legacy he should lead the effort to implement term limits for all the elected officials in Albany including Governor.
