These illegal gun switches may be small, but they can turn a handgun into a weapon that fires dozens of rounds in seconds. They have no place in our communities. Now is the time for New York to act.

I have a message for those who are creating homemade killing machines, illegal machine guns and 3D-printed ghost guns: Not in the State of New York. Not on my watch.
We’re sending a clear message to anyone who stages crashes, defrauds New Yorkers, or puts lives at risk like this incident in Queens: We will find you. We will prosecute you. And we will make you pay the price. We’re cracking down on staged crashes to protect New Yorkers’ safety and their wallets.
Everyone should be able to walk into their place of worship without fear of harassment or intimidation. Alongside Jewish leaders and community members, today we made that the law in New York.
No one should be targeted for who they are or what they believe. Islamophobia has no place in New York. @nyspolice stands ready to assist in the investigation of this cowardly act of hate.

More resources and tougher laws are paying off. Retail theft is down by double digits across New York.
The allegations in the Cornell University sexual assault case are nothing short of horrifying. For any student to come forward after an experience like this takes extraordinary courage. No student should ever be left wondering whether the institutions meant to protect them will listen and act. I support the district attorney’s decision to reopen the criminal investigation. But there are also serious questions about Cornell’s campus culture and its systems for prevention, reporting, and response. That is why I am calling for outside counsel to conduct a transparent, independent review of the university’s response to determine whether Cornell met every obligation to protect its students and pursue justice.
