Outside of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s speech, an estimated crowd of more than 1,000 people gathered for a protest urging him to reject the drilling process known as hydraulic fracturing, or fracking. Cuomo faces a major decision next month when a state moratorium on fracking is set to expire. The demonstrators included legendary folk singer and upstate New Yorker Pete Seeger, who led the crowd in a rendition of the folk classic, “This Land is Your Land.”
