Another bunch of State Senators<\/a>\u00a0were on the receiving of a protest by people upset with their SAFE votes yesterday. \u00a0As Capitol Tonight reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“The power of the SAFE Act backlash has not diminished over time … A trio of senators got a rude awakening to the organizing abilities of the anti-SAFE Act movement during an event held in Buffalo yesterday afternoon. \u00a0Senate Co-Leaders Dean Skelos<\/a> and Jeff Klein<\/a> traveled to Western New York to attend a policy event hosted by Sen. Mark Grisanti<\/a> in the afternoon, and then headline a fund-raiser for the Buffalo Republican in the evening. \u00a0The afternoon event was supposed to focus on efforts in the Senate to help unemployed veterans, but it was hijacked by angry anti-SAFE Act protestors, who shouted down the senators when they tried \u2013 largely in vain \u2013 to stick to the scheduled program …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is the second protest this month<\/a> of Senators who voted in favor of the SAFE Act.<\/p>\n
