Gov. Kathy Hochul this week unveiled a laundry list of plans for 2023 in her first State of the State address since being elected to a four-year term. In her 45-minute address, Hochul tackled a wide array of issues — from housing to mental health to the controversial issue of bail reform. Hochul also promised not to raise taxes while linking the minimum wage to the rate of inflation. In the end, Hochul made 147 proposals, and NY1’s Zack Fink, Juan Manuel Benítez and Courtney Gross highlight the notable proposals and share their own takeaways. 

After that, the nurses’ strike at two New York City hospitals came to an end on its fourth day — sending roughly 7,100 nurses back to work. The new agreement calls for higher pay, and perhaps more importantly, better working conditions. The team takes a look at how the situation between the hospitals and nurses reached their settling point.

Finally, Courtney Gross discusses her two-part series on mental health on Rikers Island, which premieres on NY1 this week. Her story can be found here: http://specne.ws/iMegMb

We want to hear from you, especially what you think of the State of the State address.
