Around New York
1. Small businesses continue to face uncertainty in New York
A recent study by the National Federation of Independent Business says small business optimism has reached its lowest point since 2012, and ranks New York last among the 50 states for economic outlook. To make it in business, it takes hustle. It also takes something people want and lots of hard work.
2. Prosecutors, survivors speak out about N.Y. court’s overturning of Weinstein rape conviction
Sexual assault survivors aimed harsh criticism at the New York State Court of Appeals for overturning the 2020 rape conviction of Harvey Weinstein. The court on Thursday voted four to three to overturn the Hollywood producer’s conviction of first-degree criminal sexual act and third-degree rape and grant him another chance in court.
3. Teaching kids how to recognize and control the triggers of asthma
Asthma is the most chronic childhood illness and the top reason kids are missing school. It’s why the American Lung Association is visiting schools across the state and country with its Open Airways Program. On Thursday, Albany College of Pharmacy students met with students at Giffen Elementary School in Albany to help keep kids out of the hospital and in classroom.
