FOX News' Bryan Llenas reports the embattled governor continues to dismiss allegations on 'Fox News @ Night'
New York City clergy members and activists called on Gov. Andrew Cuomo this week to designate houses of worship as essential.
Bertha Lewis, CEO of the Black Institute, a progressive think tank, also called out the governor for using minority churches as "props."
"Stop doing this to us," Lewis said during a #WeAreEssential rally outside of the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine on Thursday, according to the New York Post. "We’re not a `pop-up’ community. We’re tired of being treated as props and pawns by Governor Cuomo. …. He only shows up at Black and Brown churches when he wants a photo op. Enough is enough."
