NY Gov. Hochul announces $25 million in security funding to prevent hate crimes [View all]

Gov. Hochul wants New York to take hate head-on.

The governor announced the release of $25 million in security funding to help prevent hate crimes during an appearance Wednesday at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in lower Manhattan.

The funds are in addition to $43 million previously earmarked for nonprofit organizations to improve security at facilities and better protect those at risk of hate crimes or attacks.

“No New Yorker should have fear going to their homes, going to their work, going to their places of worship, or just taking the subway or going out to dinner,” Hochul said, tipping her hat to the late president and governor Franklin Roosevelt and his “four freedoms.” “We have to eradicate that fear once and for all.”
