Governor Hochul Visits Senior Citizens to Highlight 2025 State of the State Affordability Agenda
Governor Hochul: “So, I am putting a significant amount of money, $53 million toward that statewide, to make sure we can start focusing on all those needs as well. I'm also focused on tax cuts for people. There's an inflation rebate ... I'm going to make sure that families get $500, individuals get $300 back, and I'm fighting for that in Albany right now.”
Hochul: “When I hear Elon Musk call Social Security a Ponzi scheme ... It is not a Ponzi scheme. It's part of the social commitment we have to our citizens and our residents. We take care of them. Also, he also said that entitlements — meaning you're entitled to it — Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, are such a big part of the Budget that they should go first. And this is what they're talking about in Washington. Now I'm not trying to stress you out, but I'm going to take on that fight. I'm going to fight for you every step of the way.”
