\n ALBANY \u2014 Gov. Andrew Cuomo wants state lawmakers to pass a bill next week making it a hate crime when 911 callers make a false accusation based on race, gender or religion.<\/p>\n

The legislation, first introduced in 2018 and carried by Assemblyman Felix Ortiz (D-Brooklyn), was rejuvenated last month by a now-viral incident in Central Park showing Amy Cooper, a white woman, calling the cops on a black man after a harmless dispute over her dog.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve seen 911 calls which are race-based, false calls. A false 911 call based on race should be classified as a hate crime in the state of New York,\u201d Cuomo said during his now-daily briefing in Albany Friday.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s added it to a list of law enforcement reform policies he\u2019s supporting when the Legislature returns to session in Albany Monday.<\/p>\n

Ortiz told The Post violators could face between one to five years in prison, in accordance with the state\u2019s hate crime statute \u201cif the motivation for reporting such crime is motivated by a perception or belief about their race, color, national origin, ancestry, gender, religion, religious practice, age, disability or sexual orientation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe bottom line is: we should be using better judgement. Racism gets created, and I think that by making false reporting because of gender or region is completely unacceptable and intolerable,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Cuomo backed several additional measures in his legislative agenda, including:<\/p>\n
