I mean besides the fact more are going to jail.

Our Albany politicians like to rush legislation through in the middle of the night. The new gun law and the State of New York budget, for example. In Connecticut the Legislature passed its gun law in the middle of the night. Washington, D.C., politicians like to do the same. There can be two explanations. First, our elected officials are all vampires. Second, they are afraid the light of day will expose all their corruption.

It is time we demand transparency and the end of corruption in Albany. That is what Gov. Andrew Cuomo promised but has failed to deliver.
