Statement By New York State County Executives' Association (NYSCEA) President Mark Poloncarz In Response To Governor Hochul's State Of The State Address

Today, in her State of the State address, Governor Hochul outlined a broad agenda aimed at tackling some of the most pressing issues facing our state and our counties, including the rising cost of living, the lack of affordable housing, and threats to public safety. As county leaders, we've been confronting these issues on the ground in communities across the state for years, and welcome the opportunity to work with Governor Hochul and the State Legislature to make New York State a safer, stronger, more affordable place to live.
