State of New York

The Honorable Andrew M. Cuomo
Governor of New York State

You state, “For Sandy Victims, Blemishes on Credit Score Can Mean Higher Costs for Home, Auto, and Business Loans, Greater Difficulty Finding Employment.”

Employers do not use credit scores.  See Item 1.

Make a retraction.

Despite my explanation to you that employers do not use credit scores, your literature is still inaccurate.

Pages on your website state: “Brooklyn City Councilman (D-39) Brad Lander talks about a proposal he’s co-sponsoring to ban the use of credit checks during hiring in New York City. Plus,Emmett[SIC] Pinkston talks about how his credit score disqualified him for a job with the Transportation Security Administration two years ago.”

Further, Mr. Pinkston said no such thing.

Make a clarification now.
