Meena Bose and Lawrence Levy were interviewed for the Newsday article, “NYS Democrats facing a red reality with Trump’s return to power.”
New York Democrat officials worry that President-Elect Trump’s return to office may have consequences for federal aid, environmental and public health regulations, and immigrants and marginalized groups.
“New York residents and those of others in blue states that again weren’t hospitable to Trump have to hope that he and his allies won’t declare a war of retribution,” said Dean Levy. “If nothing else, it could punish millions of Republicans who live in the same neighborhoods as the Democrats who voted against him.”
Dr. Bose added that states have a better chance under the U.S. Constitution to push back on federal measures involving reproductive rights, but less legal authority to fight the White House or Congress on immigration and environmental issues that require national policies.
Dr. Bose is a Hofstra University professor of political science, executive dean of the Public Policy and Public Service program, and executive director of the Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency.
