Five Years of Delivering for New Yorkers
On August 24, 2021, Governor Kathy Hochul took her oath of office as the 57th Governor of New York. In Governor Hochul’s inaugural address, she laid out a clear vision: make New York more affordable, safer and fairer for every family. The Governor pledged to take on the State’s toughest challenges head-on and invest in what makes New York, New York.
Five years later, Governor Hochul has delivered on that promise, putting money back in New Yorkers' pockets, keeping communities safe, defending fundamental rights from Washington's attacks and fighting for hardworking families. And she’s just getting started.
