Push to restore Tappan Zee Bridge name gets new life with Dem support
A Hudson Valley Democrat wants to push the late former Gov. Mario M. Cuomo off his bridge — or at least the Cuomo name.
“The reality is being a Republican and trying to pass legislation is much more difficult than for my colleagues in the majority,” McGowan told The Post. “I’ll work with anybody, Republican or Democrat, Good ideas are good ideas.” Assemblyman John McGowan said Rockland residents still say “Tappan Zee Bridge” no matter what the law books might say.Supporters say the proposal is also about much more than their preferred name for a key transportation link.as part of a late-night legislative backroom deal to approve a catch-all omnibus bill in 2017, as the finishing touches were being put on the nearly $4 billion structure.
Ex. Gov. Andrew Cuomo strong-armed legislators into agreeing to name the nearly $4 billion bridge after his late father, a three-term liberal lion of Albany.But the bill still faces an uncertain future in the Assembly after Transportation Committee Chairman William Magnarelli Magnarelli did not provide immediate comment Monday about the reintroduction of the bill.
