In the face of detrimental federal funding cuts, Governor Kathy Hochul today convened a cabinet meeting to discuss the impacts of President Trump’s “Big Ugly Bill” on New York State. The cuts imposed by Washington Republicans include an anticipated $13 billion being cut from New York’s health care system, 1.5 million New Yorkers being stripped of health insurance coverage, and more than 300,000 households projected to lose some or all of their SNAP benefits. In addition to assessing these and other impacts, Governor Hochul has directed State agencies to prepare comprehensive strategies to help limit the long-term damage to vital programs facing federal cuts.
