Andrew Cuomo thinks essential workers like those in hospitals and food services must be rewarded.

According to Business Insider, he suggested the new federal stimulus plan should include hazard pay for workers.

Cuomo said: "They are the ones that are carrying us through this crisis, and this crisis is not over." While hospitalization rates and death rates have fallen in New York, they still had more than 248,000 cases.
