School for Scandal
As published in NY Daily News September 12, 2012 Tuckahoe, N.Y.: Racinos are
spending millions of dollars on TV commercials touting themselves as
saviors of schools. The scandal-plagued New York Racing Association
was taken over by Gov. Cuomo because of a dramatic spike in the
number of breakdowns and fatalities of horses. This was coupled with
the fact that NYRA, with the knowledge of its senior executives, had
improperly shortchanged bettors of millions of dollars. Our children
deserve better than to be used as window dressing to cover up cruelty
and corruption.
