This week, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed the state’s $229 billion spending plan, just hours after state lawmakers officially signed off on the package. Hochul joined Errol Louis on “Inside City Hall” for an exclusive one-on-one interview, during which she outlined the budget. She also explained what’s next for her ambitious housing plan, which was a pillar of her agenda but was largely scrapped from the budget. She also addressed the controversy surrounding a recent report in “The New York Times” about her consultant Adam Sullivan, who resigned days after the piece was released.
After that, Spectrum News political anchor and the host of “Capital Tonight” in Albany Susan Arbetter joined Louis for a look at the final budget, and discussed how Hochul fared in negotiations. They also touched on the latest changes to minimum wage, and why Arbetter believes Hochul’s housing plan will eventually see the light of day.
