Fires. Trains striking debris. Amtrak incidents in Penn Station's tunnels harm our entire regional transit system. For over a year, I've been demanding a plan from Amtrak to complete repairs without hurting commuters. Riders deserve better than a summer of delays and excuses.

An Amtrak maintenance vehicle caught fire in a Hudson River tunnel between New York and New Jersey early Friday, suspending Penn Station service for NJ Transit and Long Island Rail Road commuters. Read more: https://abcnews.link/YHRnHm2

For years I fought with @RepEspaillat to finally build the Second Avenue Subway. Now, with work underway, Donald Trump froze funding just to punish New Yorkers. We’re sending a message to the Trump Administration:  Restore the funding now. If you don't, we'll see you in court.
This year, we delivered big upgrades for Queens bus riders. Take a ride on the new and improved Q111 with me and @QnsBPRichards 🚍
Washington tried to stop Gateway. New York kept fighting. Now tunnel construction is underway because we believe in getting big things done.

Kathy Hochul and MTA boss Janno Lieber keep asking commuters to pay more while the agency's spending keeps rising and accountability keeps falling. New Yorkers deserve a transit system that works, not more excuses. When I am Governor, I will demand real reform and put riders first.

Governor Hochul's incompetence in handling labor relations from nurses to corrections officers and now railroad workers puts the safety of everyday New Yorkers in jeopardy. Blaming the LIRR strike on President Trump is so disingenuous it is laughable.

Hochul's Incompetence Puts the Safety of New Yorkers in Jeopardy

Governor Hochul's incompetence in handling labor relations from nurses to corrections officers and now railroad workers puts the safety of everyday New Yorkers in jeopardy. Blaming the LIRR strike on President Trump is so disingenuous it is laughable.

Blakeman: I’ll dip into $3.8B Hochul ‘slush fund’ to lower NY taxes

New Yorkers pay some of the highest fares and taxes in the country, and Hochul’s MTA still can't get the basics right. I am calling out Kathy Hochul and MTA boss Janno Lieber for the soaring spending and mismanagement that's draining your paycheck. Commuters deserve a system that works, not more excuses. When I am Governor, I will demand accountability at the MTA and put New Yorkers first.
Hundreds of thousands of Long Islanders woke up to chaos because Kathy Hochul failed to do her job. This strike didn't come out of nowhere — Hochul knew this deadline was coming and still allowed commuters, small businesses, nurses, teachers, and tourists to become collateral damage.

By boycotting the Israel Day on Fifth Parade, Zohran Mamdani has finally dropped the mask and shown his true colors of antisemitism. While Jewish New Yorkers are being terrorized in the streets and attacked by radicals waving the inverted red triangle—the same symbol Hamas uses to mark targets for execution—the sitting Mayor has chosen to side with them.

Hochul's Incompetence Puts the Safety of New Yorkers in Jeopardy

If a driver can't read road signs or communicate in English, they should not be behind the wheel of a bus or tractor-trailer. Sadly, Kathy Hochul lets it happen. In Nassau, I led the way on public safety. When I am Governor, I will make sure every driver on New York roads meets the standard.
Hochul's soft-on-crime agenda has allowed disorder to take over transit hubs, while Blakeman pledges enforcement and safe, functional facilities for travelers.

Blakeman: Hochul-Mamdani Agenda Is a Direct Attack on Asian American Values

Kathy Hochul & Albany Democrats want to hit upstate drivers with a new $25 vehicle registration tax, congestion pricing beyond NYC. It’s wrong! Under Kathy Hochul, New Yorkers are already overtaxed. Now they want you to pay more just to drive. This is how it starts: one region, then statewide. As Governor, I’ll END congestion pricing on Day One and stop the tax hikes. Enough is enough.
You already paid for our public roads with your tax dollars, but now thanks to Kathy Hochul you have to pay just for the privilege of driving on them. On top of that, New Yorkers are paying 70% more for electricity because of Kathy Hochul’s energy mandates, fees, and taxes. New York sits on one of the largest natural gas reserves in the world, yet Hochul blocks local energy production and forces us to buy it from Pennsylvania. As Governor, I will cut energy taxes, repeal state surcharges, and tap into our natural resources to cut your utility bills in half.

Driving is about as American as it gets, and in New York, it’s gotten a lot more expensive. Since @KathyHochul became governor, the cost of driving in this state is up nearly 17%. Here’s where it’s coming from: Tolls: MTA bridge/tunnel tolls up 22%, NYS Thruway tolls up 5% (first hike since 2010), and a brand-new $9 congestion pricing charge just to drive into Manhattan Car insurance: average premiums up over 20% at their 2024 peak Parking: Manhattan meter rates up 20% Fuel: the one true wildcard, driven by global markets, though even here relief was temporary: the state gas tax cut lasted 7 months and was never brought back. Nearly every one of these, tolls, congestion pricing, Thruway rates, sits under decisions the Governor’s administration and the authorities she appoints directly control. Only fuel prices are genuinely outside her hands. New Yorkers are getting priced off their own roads. This isn’t sustainable.

The @MTA has turned into a runaway waste machine that is abusing New York taxpayers and riders every single day. Nearly $764 million has already been spent on overtime this year, which is $176 million over budget, while the agency faces budget gaps climbing into the hundreds of millions even as ridership falls, fare evasion spreads, fares rise, congestion pricing hits working families, and service keeps getting worse. This is pure reckless spending and mismanagement under @GovKathyHochul and MTA boss Janno Lieber. I am done watching riders and taxpayers get hammered. As comptroller I will audit every dollar, expose the mismanagement, and force real accountability at the MTA with no more blank checks. New Yorkers deserve a transit system that works instead of one that wastes their money and their time.

We won a court order permanently blocking the Trump administration from freezing federal grants for the Gateway Project. Despite the administration’s illegal and vindictive antics, Gateway has been moving forward, bringing union jobs and infrastructure upgrades to our region.

My office and @GovKathyHochul are suing the federal administration for withholding $73 million in highway funding. We won't let the president jeopardize our communities’ safety. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/24/nyregion/letitia-james-lawsuit-highway-funding.html
As a result of our court win, the remaining funding for the Gateway Program’s Hudson Tunnel Project has been released. Now we can keep this critical project moving. https://www.thecity.nyc/2026/02/18/gateway-construction-funding-trump-tunnel/

I see the conditions you are working in every day. You are on the frontlines of our public safety crisis — you spend every day dealing with the homeless, the mentally ill, the drug addicted, and the repeat offenders. It’s not fair and it’s not safe. I will prosecute transit crime, remove repeat and violent offenders from the transit systems, and stop fare evasion. Doing so will make the trains and buses safer for workers and riders.

Here is my message to the Transit Workers of New York:

That is why TWU Local 106 and TWU Local 252 have endorsed my campaign for Attorney General, and I’m honored to have their support.
