Hochul Delivers New York State of the State Address
Gov. Kathy Hochul said New York has made strides in addressing residents’ concerns about violent crime and cost of living, but that there was more work to do.
-
The State of New York is strong. Stronger today than when I became governor two years ago. It’s healthier, safer, more affordable. Now we’ve traversed some rocky terrain, and there’s still some switchbacks before we reach the summit. Across our nation and our state, people worry that a safe and affordable life is somehow out of reach. While shootings and murders have declined by double digits, safety at the grocery store, the synagogue or the subway is always top of mind. And although we’ve made great strides to take guns off the streets, too many parents are still fearful as their children get on the bus each morning. And too often, troubled individuals are discharged from the hospital without receiving the care they need and go on to commit violent acts. The potential of a crime, no matter how serious, is causing anxiety for our residents. And on top of that, they’re also frustrated with the rising cost of living. Inflation is down 9.1 percent to 3.1 percent over the last 18 months. Paychecks are finally growing, and yet our neighbors are struggling to make a dollar go further. And sadly, no matter how hard they work, they fear they’ll never be as successful or get as far as their own parents did. These are the reasons that I fight every day to give New Yorkers a better shot at a better life.

1
was there at The Trump Organization about executives coming in
2
to meet with Mr. Trump?
3
A
Mr.
Trump had an open-door policy, which, if there was
4
5
6
somebody in there, you waited; and if not, you knocked on the
door, and I would say, “Boss, do you have a second?”, and I
would walk right in.
7
Q
And others did the same, to your knowledge?
8
A
9
To my knowledge, yes.
Now, when you met with Mr. Trump at The Trump
Organization, in his office, did you, generally, need
10
–
I’m
11
sorry.
12
Did you, generally, record those meetings in your calendar?
13
A
No, ma’am.
14
15
16
As part of your work at The Trump Organization, did
you feel that it was part of your job to keep him updated on
matters that you were handling for him?
17
A
Yes.
It was actually required.

23
A
Tell us what you mean by that.
When he would task you with something, he would then
say, “Keep me informed. Let me know what’s going on.”
And what he was saying, what everybody did is, as soon as
you had a result, an answer, you would go straight back and
tell him. Especially if it was a matter that was troubling to
24
him.
25
So, two things, just to break that down.
