New Yorkers were losing jobs and feeling more pessimistic than they did last month. At the same time, a majority of independent voters, as well as voters in both major political parties, viewed Governor Andrew Cuomo positively, according to the latest poll released Monday by the Siena Research Institute.

Cuomo’s job performance rating was 8 points higher than it was in March, reaching a record for the Democrat of 71 percent.

President Donald Trump’s order to temporarily reduce immigration to the United States drew protests from advocates in New York and state Attorney General Letitia James.

A change in the law is needed to combat the increase in hate crimes in New York, state Attorney General Letitia James said Wednesday at a forum on white nationalism and domestic terrorism.

“Given the rise in hate crimes, to sit idly by and do absolutely nothing to me is not the answer," James said at the forum, hosted by the New York State Bar Association.

New York House Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik, as well as Rep. Lee Zeldin, of Long Island, were named Monday to the White House's impeachment defense team.

Both Stefanik, a North Country lawmaker, and Zeldin have been staunch supporters of President Donald Trump.

Rep. Anthony Brindisi’s office on Wednesday evening, shortly after President Donald Trump became the third president in American history to be impeached, released a statement that sought to focus more on issues than the politics of removal.

“President Trump is my President too,” Brindisi said I’ve always said I would work with him to get things done for American families.”

Democratic Rep. Anthony Brindisi this week said it was fair to say he agonized over the decision to impeach President Donald Trump.

The former state lawmaker called it the toughest vote he’s ever taken in office.
