Show Notes

After two special sessions in 2022, New York state lawmakers are coming back to Albany for the new term starting January 4. Democrats will retain their majorities in the state Senate and Assembly, and Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul is back for a full term after a narrow win in November’s election. In addition to the state budget process, lawmakers are also likely to consider criminal justice measures and more. For a preview, we speak with state Assemblyman John McDonald of the 108th district.
