Statement From Governor Kathy Hochul

“The U.S. District Court's decision to uphold New York’s nation-leading offshore wind program is a major victory for our state and the entire region.

“The Trump administration has repeatedly tried to block these projects, risking blackouts and thousands of good-paying jobs. I'll always fight like hell to protect New Yorkers — today's decision shows that fight matters.

“Thanks to Attorney General James’ leadership in the courts, we’ll keep advancing our all-of-the-above energy strategy, investing in offshore wind and other renewables to secure our grid, tackle the climate crisis, and keep our rates affordable.”
