Mayor Eric Adams showed support for Gov. Kathy Hochul Tuesday, after she shared her vision for the upcoming year at the annual State of the State address.

“You just see that we value the same things,” Adams said. “Everything around putting money in the pockets of everyday New Yorkers, public safety, she has been a real partner.”

Hochul laid out big plans for the state and city, including many public safety investments such as having police patrol subways overnight.

“I think the additional 200 cops we’re going to put in the system, and have them ride the subway, is going to balance the success we’ve had in bringing down crime that has been overshadowed by random acts of violence. And that is what our focus must be,” Adams said.

The additional patrols come after a month of high-profile incidents on the city’s subway system, including the fatal burning of a woman in Brooklyn and the shoving of a man onto the tracks in Manhattan on New Year’s Eve.

“We have done the job of bringing down crime. Now we have to make people feel safe and nothing does it better than the omnipresence of that blue uniform,” Adams said. 

In her address, Hochul also announced plans for expanding the standard for involuntary commitments.

The change will allow for more clinicians to involuntarily commit a New Yorker who is at risk of physical harm to themselves and others or unable to meet their basic needs like food, shelter and medical care.

“We heard a mom today talking about what she thought would’ve been possible, and her daughter would’ve still been here, so I think that’s what’s at stake: people’s humanity, and their dignity and people’s loved ones that we want to keep safe,” Anne Williams-Isom, deputy mayor of Health and Human Services, said.

Hochul is also looking to make changes to what are known as discovery laws in trials. She is listening to district attorneys across the state who argue current laws make it difficult to prosecute current cases, resulting in charges getting dropped.
