Firearms manufacturer Remington has delayed its planned Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing for a second time, now extending the deadline from tomorrow to Sunday.

Details: The original postponement came earlier in the month, when Remington also said that Ankura Trust had replaced BofA Merrill Lynch as the restructuring's term loan agent. It is unclear if the agent change related to BofA's pledge to reexamine its gun-maker relationships, in the wake of Parkland. No changes accompanied the new delay announcement.

Cuomo says New York is "literally going day-to-day with our supplies"

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said in a press conference on Sunday that New York is struggling to maintain medical supplies while combatting the novel coronavirus — operating "literally" on a "day-to-day" basis.

Why it matters: New York City has become an epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, facing mass quarantines and stay-at-home orders. Cuomo said Saturday that New York reported 630 new deaths in 24 hours — an "all-time increase" that beat the previous day's record of 562 deaths.

Illinois governor: "The president does not understand the word 'federal'"

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker said on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday that President Trump's comments about the federal government's stockpile of medical equipment suggest he "does not understand the word 'federal.'"

Why it matters: White House adviser Jared Kushner argued at a press briefing last week that the "notion of the federal stockpile was it’s supposed to be our stockpile; it’s not supposed to be state stockpiles that they then use."
