The attorney general of New York is already locked in numerous fights with President Trump over various administration policies.
"What they're now doing to make political hay, to advance their political argument, is they take the Department of Homeland Security in an abuse of power [and] a hyper-politicalized use of government," Cuomo said at a press conference Friday.
In his remarks, Cuomo described the move as a"ham-handed political tactic," not one born of necessity. "There is supposed to be a line between politics and government. You're not supposed to be using government as a political tool," he added."You can't then use the government to come up with an arbitrary policy that hurts hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers to make your political point. You can't do that. It's an abuse of power. It is extortion."
