police

I’ll always invest to help keep our communities safe and support our police officers doing this work.

We’re sending a strong message to ICE: You will not weaponize local police officers against our communities.   You will not use our police technology to track and detail people who’ve done nothing wrong. You will not turn our local jails into detention centers for civil enforcement. Local Cops, Local Crimes.

Proud to have the support of Upstate legislators in our fight to lower costs and deliver safer neighborhoods. Together we’ve made record housing and public safety investments and brought thousands of good-paying jobs through projects like Micron. Let’s keep this momentum going.

Public safety must always be pursued lawfully, transparently, and with humanity. In New York, local cops focus on local crime. They will not be exploited by ICE.

My job is to keep New Yorkers safe. That means keeping local law enforcement focused on protecting our communities – not acting as Trump’s ICE agents.

Local cops should be focused on local crime. Today I'm announcing the Local Cops, Local Crimes Act to stop ICE from deputizing police to do a federal agency’s job.

While my opponent Bruce Blakeman embraces ICE’s aggression, I’m working to protect New Yorkers from their overreach and make sure local law enforcement are focused on keeping our communities safe.

When power is abused, New York will act. Today, I’m announcing new actions to keep local police focused on local crime and protect New Yorkers from ICE overreach. Join me live in New York City: http://governor.ny.gov

Following the U.S. military operations in Iran overnight, @nyspolice are increasing their presence statewide at religious, cultural, and diplomatic sites with our local partners. While there are no credible threats at this time, our top priority is keeping New Yorkers safe.

Nassau County Executive and presumptive Republican nominee for Governor of New York, Bruce Blakeman, today called on Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to immediately fire Kazi Fouzia from his transition team after a video surfaced in which she referred to the brave men and women of the New York City Police Department as “killers.”

Zohran Mamdani just cut law enforcement expansion from his $125B budget. @KathyHochul bailed him out and called it a "win." Crime is up double digits across NY. In Nassau, I hired 600+ officers and built the safest county in America. New Yorkers deserve a Governor who actually fights for them.

Eight shots fired on a Queens street corner before 7 AM. Two men shot and fighting for their lives. This is what failure looks like. In Nassau, I hired over 600 law enforcement officers and built the safest county in America. When I am Governor, every New Yorker gets that same safety, not just Nassau.

Assaulting a police officer is not a protest. It's a crime. The men and women of the NYPD put themselves in harm's way every day to protect New Yorkers. Anyone who attacks them should be arrested, prosecuted, and held fully accountable. I'll always back the blue.

Kathy Hochul wants to ban local police working with ICE, even though these partnerships make our streets safer. Just look at my running mate Sheriff Hood's program. No raids, no chaos. Just criminals off the streets and safer communities. I stand with law enforcement.

New York is falling apart because leaders like Kathy Hochul stopped enforcing the law. DAY 1 as Governor, I’ll put public safety first, back our police, and make New York safe again - just like I did in Nassau County.

I’ll put New York first and restore public safety. That means enforcing the law and backing our officers.

New York is too expensive to feel this unsafe. Hochul and Mamdani strain law enforcement and make it harder to remove dangerous offenders, including illegal migrants with criminal records. Safety is not partisan. When I am Governor, I will put law-abiding New Yorkers first. No matter what party they vote for.

On my watch, Nassau County removed 2,000 illegal migrants with criminal records tied to rape, attempted murder, robbery, drug dealing, and gang activity. Now Kathy Hochul wants to stop local law enforcement from working with federal law enforcement. I will not put dangerous criminals back into our neighborhoods. When I am Governor, I will stand with law enforcement, protect working families, and put the safety of New Yorkers first.

Kathy Hochul is turning down $10 BILLION in federal funding to secure our border and back law enforcement. Why does @KathyHochul keep choosing illegal aliens over New Yorkers?

While Hochul and Mamdani waste billions of your tax money on radical experiments, New York families are being forced onto the streets. They ran out of money for our most vulnerable because their priorities are backwards. In Nassau, I've made our community safer by hiring more police. I cut taxes and helped do all this while expanding services for those most in need. When I am Governor, I'll restore sanity to New York and put our most vulnerable first.

When federal law enforcement asked for cooperation and help, Nassau County answered.

As Nassau County Executive, I cut taxes, backed law enforcement, and delivered results. New York does not have to stay broken.

Working New Yorkers are paying over $4,000 a month for the median apartment, yet face violence, disorder, and an overwhelmed law enforcement system under Kathy Hochul. You’re paying some of the highest costs in America while getting less safety and a lower quality of life. Kathy Hochul and Mamdani have enabled this chaos with sanctuary policies that drain resources and make it harder to remove dangerous offenders. In Nassau County, I rejected sanctuary policies and removed 2,000 illegal migrants with criminal records in one year. When I am Governor, I will back law enforcement, restore order, improve our quality of life, and put working families first.
