Siding with the Islamists

NY Assembly Dems accused of ‘veiled antisemitism’ after killing bipartisan bill to commemorate Oct. 7 attack on Israel


ALBANY – Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie torpedoed a bipartisan bill that would have commemorated the horrific Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel.

The Bronx pol went to extraordinary lengths Friday to ensure that the measure would not make it to the Assembly floor for a vote, stacking a committee with compliant Democratic allies who’d vote to scuttle it, sources said.

The bill, sponsored by Republican Assemblyman Lester Chang, would have enshrined Oct. 7 alongside other days of commemoration in the Empire State, such as “Rosa Parks Day” and “Susan B. Anthony Day.”
