This was one of two events that showed that Gov Hochul was no different than Cuomo. Both are Dem so of course the Republicans don't like them. But then they do some things with a conservative lean that seemed out of character for a Democratic governor.

Hochul pulled this stunt and nominated a Judge who some feel had some very conservative decisions.

Just an FYI: It's not uncommon for legislation to sit unsigned by an NY governor (current or past) for weeks or months. Even ones with strong bipartisan and public support. That doesn't always mean that the governor is blocking it. They could let it become law without weighing in on it. Essentially abstaining.
