Maher Urges Governor to Address Youth Flight in the Coming Year
Statement from Assemblyman Brian Maher (R,C-Walden) on Gov. Kathy Hochul’s State of the State
January 10, 2023
"Gov. Hochul and I share the same concerns over New York's out-migration issue. While the Governor is focused heavily on housing, that is just one important part of this problem and we have to take a multi-faceted approach. I am interested in looking into how we can retain the youth and talent of our state through good-paying jobs and lowering the overall cost of living. I made a promise to work across the political divide and I hope Gov. Hochul will work with everyone and truly support a healthy exchange of ideas as we work together with both sides of the aisle to make positive changes for our communities."
