Statement from Governor Kathy Hochul on Yom Kippur

"Yom Kippur is the most solemn day on the Jewish calendar, a time to reflect and make amends. From Kol Nidre at sunset to the final blast of the shofar tomorrow evening, Jewish communities gather to focus on repentance, renewal and a desire to fix what has been broken in the year that has passed. May all those who are observing this holiest of days have an easy, meaningful fast and be inscribed in the Book of Life: Tzom Kal and G'MarChatima Tova."
