Statement from NYGOP Chairman Nick Langworthy on the 2023 Budget Agreement - April 7, 2022


“Both on process and substance, this budget can be summed up as a colossal failure. It’s a week late, was negotiated in secret by three Democrats, will be voted on without any time to read the bills and we are still short on key details. Democrats are pissing away billions of dollars with record spending in giveaways to billionaires and socialist programs that are rife with fraud, while the middle class continues to be squeezed. They failed to do what’s necessary to fix the public safety nightmare they created--but don’t take our word for it, the Hochul Administration said themselves they are ‘not here to undo bail reform’ and they ‘are not going to have a law and order way of addressing it.’ 


“This budget puts election year bandaids on bullet-sized wounds that are causing New York to bleed out. The only way we are going to truly save New York is by restoring balance with a Republican governor who will make the real changes that will restore safety, prosperity, and common sense to state government.”
