“Governor Hochul’s decision to appoint Senator Brian Benjamin as Lieutenant Governor underscores her administration’s commitment to bringing new voices and representation to the Executive Chamber. Senator Benjamin has been a consistent ally here in Albany, working tirelessly on behalf of his constituents and fighting every day for a better New York. He represents the dedication needed to bring real change and results to our state. I look forward to working with this new administration on important measures so we can continue to serve the people of New York.”
