Gov. Andrew Cuomo says he's hopeful that New York can fully reopen earlier than July 1, the date Mayor Bill de Blasio pitched for the city's lifting of restrictions earlier Thursday, though he said he was reluctant to make projections. "I think they're irresponsible," Cuomo said, reiterating decisions on state pandemic restrictions were his call. "July 1 - you have May, June, what happens in May, what happens in June? I'd like to get the hopeful reopening date before that. I don't want to wait that long. I think if we do what we have to do we can reopen earlier." Asked what a full reopening would look like, the governor was clear: "What does reopening mean? Reopening means, literally, everything back to normal." #news4now #nbc4ny
