You should hire Spencer immediately (but also let him keep working with me:) ). He's a killer investigative reporter with truly mystifying data abilities + the sensitivity needed to treat sources with care. He helps his peers & takes edits like a champ. All-around ideal colleague

Hochul has referred the Rochester-area DA, who was caught on video berating a cop for trying to pull her over, to a misconduct commission. But the commission, established three years ago, isn't yet operational — thanks in part to feet-dragging from Hochul nysfocus.com/2024/04/30/roc…
NEW: After Monroe County DA Sandra Doorley was caught on video berating a police officer over a traffic stop, Hochul referred her to a commission formed under Cuomo. It has never taken a case. nysfocus.com/2024/04/30/roc…
New York Focus reporters share a few key takeaways from this year’s state budget and what made it in (or didn’t). Check out our full budget guide: nysfocus.com/2024/04/20/new…
Bombshell documents obtained by @RosalindZAdams show NY taxpayers will be on the hook when state-licensed cannabis retailers fail, an inevitability given wildly unrealistic sales projections. thecity.nyc/2024/04/24/can…
Time off work for pregnant New Yorkers, no more free buses, the Empire AI center: We've updated our list of what made it into this year's budget. Also: a jump-to-topics menu and a read-more button for every section. nysfocus.com/2024/04/20/new…
catching up on sooo much news after a hectic few weeks! including this great @nysfocus investigation into the 'peace officers' at NYC homeless shelters "who beat, slap, and pepper spray the residents they’re supposed to protect" nysfocus.com/2024/04/15/new…
What made it into New York's budget? What was left on the cutting room floor? Here’s our tracker, now updated with a searchable chart breaking down all the major items. nysfocus.com/2024/04/20/new…
Last week, @commoncauseny and New York Focus filed a motion requesting that the transcripts of Trump's criminal trial be made public. We're pleased that the court agreed, and we urge New York judges to do the same in other cases. nytimes.com/2024/04/22/nyr… x.com/frankrunyeon/s…

Congrats to @thedeannapaul for filing this important lawsuit on behalf of @commoncauseny & @nysfocus. There may not be TV cameras for the Trump trial, but the public should have access to the transcripts.
It was my honor today to share the stage with (from left) @akashvmehta at @nyfocus, @emilyhholden of @FloodlightNews and @MonikaBauerlein at @MotherJones. These nonprofit newsrooms are doing amazing, inspiring work. If you're not following them, you should be.
NEW: The full New York state budget is in. Here's where things landed on tenant's rights, school aid, Medicaid spending, hate crimes, and much more. Bookmark this page and check back for updates! nysfocus.com/2024/04/20/new…
As usual a tremendous and insightful piece from @nysfocus @jul1arock The State Assembly leadership @CarlHeastie killed the #NYHEAT act, which mean higher bills and more pollution for NYers. We don’t know why he’s so devoted to stifling such bills … nysfocus.com/2024/04/19/new…
Gov. Hochul, the NY Senate, and a majority of Assembly Dems backed a plan to wean the state off natural gas this budget season — but under a fierce lobbying campaign from National Fuel, Assembly leadership shot down the measure with barely any discussion. nysfocus.com/2024/04/19/new…
NEW: This week, the Assembly rejected a landmark plan to help transition New York away from fossil fuels. Sources say the chamber didn't even discuss the plan in detail during budget negotiations. nysfocus.com/2024/04/19/new…
Worthy effort here. Good for @nysfocus, a small, accountability-oriented newsroom, and @commoncauseny

SCOOP: The owner of New York City’s defunct nuclear power plant is suing the state. Holtec says legislation Gov. Hochul signed last year to block routine releases of treated water from Indian Point into the Hudson violates the federal Atomic Energy Act. huffpost.com/entry/indian-p…
NEW: Many laborers in New York are supposed to get paid weekly — and they can sue their bosses if they don't. Governor Kathy Hochul's budget proposal, now in late stage negotiations, would make it harder to enforce that right. nysfocus.com/2024/04/18/wee…

New York's governor referred the Rochester-area DA who tried to use her position to get out of a speeding ticket -- and refused to stop for a cop -- to a commission that has never taken a case and can't issue discipline, @chrisgelardi reports. nysfocus.com/2024/04/30/roc…
Catch NY Focus and @chrisgelardi going local!
Rochester — Tune in at 4pm to News 10NBC to hear @chrisgelardi and @whec_bbrean's conversation about the state commission tasked with investigating Monroe County DA Doorley after a viral traffic stop incident.
We have been looking into the state agency tapped by the governor to investigate Monroe Co DA Doorley. And so has @nysfocus nysfocus.com/2024/04/30/roc…
Finally, I get to use this phrase: ‘Some personal news’ I’m leaving New York State Public Radio‘s Capitol Bureau beat on June 21. It’s been a fabulous ride, but it’s time to go.
You should hire Spencer immediately (but also let him keep working with me:) ). He's a killer investigative reporter with truly mystifying data abilities + the sensitivity needed to treat sources with care. He helps his peers & takes edits like a champ. All-around ideal colleague
