The state budget: Better late than never?
Manage episode 480208935 series 2406578
Gov. Kathy Hochul this week announced there’s finally a deal on a state budget — albeit a month late. The $254 billion plan includes much more than fiscal policy, also encompassing everything from criminal justice reforms to a school cellphone ban. Meanwhile, the ballot has been set in the June Democratic mayoral primary race with Zohran Mamdani getting top placement. But does the location of a candidate’s name on the ballot affect election results? NY1 statehouse reporter Bernadette Hogan, investigative reporter Courtney Gross and political reporter Bobby Cuza break this all down.
After that, the “Off Topic” team continues its series of profiles on Democratic mayoral primary candidates. This week, the focus is on Zellnor Myrie, a Brooklyn state senator who’s gotten attention as a legislator but is struggling to gain traction in the race.
