Despite the original catch phrase of "flattening the curve" in New York being an objective accomplished long ago, NYC residents are still having their Constitutional Rights decimated by the feckless leaders of their City and State. 

NYC is the only city in the state which is forbidding Indoor Dining in its restaurants. 

And now a Class Action Lawsuit seeking $2B in damages is being filed on behalf of restauratuers in the city against Mayor De Blasio & Governor Andrew Cuomo.

From Forbes:

Restaurants in New York City filed a $2 billion class-action lawsuit against city and state officials on Thursday, alleging the indoor dining ban caused “irreparable harm” to the city’s food and beverage industry and pushing for the return to indoor dining — the lawsuit marks the latest attempt to normalize the city through legal action.

Il Bacco, an Italian restaurant in Queens, is spearheading a class-action lawsuit against Gov. Andrew Cuomo, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, and New York Attorneys General to force the state to allow indoor dining and for damages lost during Covid-19 guidelines.

Over 350 restaurants have signed on to the $2 billion lawsuit.

Il Bacco is only 500 feet from the Nassau County border, where restaurants have been able to serve indoors at 50% capacity since June 24.

New York City is the only city in the state where some form of indoor dining is still not allowed, despite a weeks-long statewide case positive rate below 1%.

In mid-August, 1,500 gym owners across New York filed a class-action lawsuit against the state which led to gyms, fitness centers, and yoga studios opening their doors at 33% capacity just a few weeks later."
