Gov. Kathy Hochul unveiled an ambitious list of plans for 2025 in her fourth State of the State address. The list of promises included checks for New Yorkers, tax cuts, new money for transit projects, cops on the subway and programs supporting pregnant women. NY1 investigative reporter Courtney Gross, political reporter Bobby Cuza and statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan break down what the governor is proposing and the likelihood that it will happen.
After that, 2025 is an election year - and the mayor’s race is already heating up. The field is starting to take shape for the mayoral primary in June, and new fundraising figures were out this week. The “Off Topic’ team looks at Mayor Eric Adams’ reelection chances and discuss how Andrew Cuomo’s rumored comeback could have an impact on the race.
