Restore kosher division, new N.Y. Gov. Cuomo urged

Lawmakers, Jewish leaders and kosher businesses are lobbying New York\’s new governor Andrew Cuomo to restore the state\’s kosher law-enforcement division. Budget cuts and retirements over the last year have left the division with one employee, the division\’s director, according to The Wall Street Journal. The cuts in the department, which once employed 11 kosher inspectors, will save up to $1 million a year in salary, benefits and services, according to the newspaper, citing a state Department of Agriculture and Markets spokesperson.
