"We'll  tell them about what we did. We'll help them with testing programs, tracing programs, we're going to bring thousands of people pieces of PPE, and whatever they need from us, they're going to get because we are New York tough, which is smart and united and disciplined and today is about the last word - we are loving. Thank you, America, for what you did for us. And we won't forget, and we'll be there for you when you need it," Cuomo said.
