New York Has Fallen: Gov. Hochul Signs CO2 Frack Ban Into Law

It took a full nine months, but New York's leftist Governor, Kathy Hochul, didn't disappoint her radicalized base of supporters. The NY legislature (both chambers controlled by Democrats) passed a ban on “CO2 fracking” (uses carbon dioxide instead of water) back in March of this year (see Radicals Win in NY – Senate Passes Permanent Ban on CO2 Fracking). Yet, as we told you in November, NY Gov. Kathy Hochul had still not signed the bill into law (see 8 Mo. After NY Legislature Passed CO2 Frack Ban, Gov Has Not Signed). Nobody seemed to know why she delayed signing the bill, but sometime over the past three days, she did sign it, much to the delight of radical Big Green groups (who contribute big money to her campaigns).
