State of the State: ICE protections, transit improvements and other key items on Hochul's radar for 2026  amNewYork
"Among them is a plan to advance legislation that would authorize individuals to bring state-level civil actions against federal officers who violate their constitutional rights. Whether it's protecting New Yorkers from unprecedented escalations in federal immigration enforcement, ensuring families have access to health care, or supporting small businesses bearing the brunt of Trump's tariffs, I will continue standing up for New Yorkers no matter what happens at the federal level, she said."
"Hochul's proposals aimed to maintain New York City's record-low subway crime and enhance statewide law enforcement. She emphasized the need for more police on platforms, expanded SCOUT teams, and platform edge barriers, alongside investments in crime labs and statewide crime analysis centers, including a new center in Westchester. She also outlined legislation to crack down on 3D-printed guns and DIY machine guns, requiring pistol manufacturers to prevent conversion into fully automatic weapons."
Governor Kathy Hochul proposed an affordability agenda to expand transit and housing and bolster public safety across New York. Hochul proposed legislation allowing individuals to bring state-level civil suits against federal officers who violate constitutional rights and promised protections from federal immigration enforcement and tariff impacts. Public safety measures include more police on subway platforms, expanded SCOUT teams, platform edge barriers, investments in crime labs and statewide crime analysis centers including a new Westchester center. Hochul also proposed laws to ban protests within 25 feet of houses of worship and to crack down on 3D-printed guns and DIY machine guns.
