Political, environmental groups gather in Albany for Anti-train Bomb Rally

Danielle Sanzone

ALBANY >> About 70 people from various area organizations participated in a rally on Tuesday to ask Gov. Andrew Cuomo to ban trains carrying oil from entering New York state.

“Our primary focus here is to relay our message to the governor,” said Sandy Steubing with PAUSE, the People of Albany United for Safe Energy. “He is in charge of the health and safety of the state’s residents.”
