We are actively monitoring a number of bomb threats at synagogues in New York. Threats have been determined not to be credible, but we will not tolerate individuals sowing fear & antisemitism. Those responsible must be held accountable for their despicable actions.

Businesses like Harry Singh’s are vital to their communities, but the surge in retail theft has left owners feeling helpless. Our budget sends a clear message to retail thieves: Your time is up. We’re keeping our small businesses & communities safe.

My family's life changed when my dad got a college education. I want that same ladder of opportunity to be open to all New Yorkers. Our budget makes a historic expansion of the Tuition Assistance Program to make college more affordable so more students can pursue their dreams.

In our budget, we increased our Tuition Assistance Program’s minimum award for the first time in almost 25 years. That's going to be a major boost to students who need help the most. Join me live at @SUNY ’s Farmingdale State College:
