Kathy Hochul
The Public Record
Kathy Hochul is the 57th Governor of New York, having assumed office on August 24, 2021. She is the first female governor of the state. Prior to her governorship, Hochul served as the Lieutenant Governor of New York from January 1, 2015, until she became governor. Throughout her political career, she has focused on issues such as economic development, women's rights, and public safety.
I am committed to making sure that spaces like this are protected, preserved and there forever for not just you, your children, but your children's children as well.
I can handle law enforcement. We've got NYPD. I have State Police. We have all the resources we need to keep our streets safe.
We’ll fight this with every fiber of our being because our kids should not be political pawns in a fight that Donald Trump seems to have with blue-state governors.
The safety of New Yorkers is my top priority, and I continue to urge extreme caution throughout the duration of this storm.
If you can stay off the roads for just a few more hours, delay your travel plans, and allow our plows to get out there and do what they do.
Let's get the Gateway Tunnel finished. Let's work on our subway system, money that we need here in the city. And also just the conversation about how it is not necessary to send in the National Guard, because crime is going down…
I cannot set forth a plan right now that takes money out of a system that relies on the fares of the buses and the subways.
Can we find a path to make it more affordable for people who need help? Of course, we can.
