I agree with Governor Cuomo`s decision to step down. It`s the right thing to do and in the best interest of New Yorkers. As someone who has served at all levels of government and is next in line of succession, I am prepared to lead as New York state`s 57th governor.
Kathy Hochul supports Governor Cuomo's resignation and expresses her readiness to lead New York as its first female governor.

I look forward to working together to make sure New Yorkers of all faiths feel safe and welcome in New York City.
That’s what a partnership with Washington looks like as we’re standing here. We’ve done our part. We’re ready to build. It’s underway.
The question of who will be the next mayor is one I take extremely seriously and to which I have devoted a great deal of thought.
