Kathy Hochul announced a $254 billion budget Monday that includes her thorny public safety priorities, focuses on affordability and largely ignores proposed funding cuts from Washington.

Gov. Kathy Hochul has announced an agreement on the state budget. The agreement comes 28 days after the April 1 deadline. It includes a $254 billion spending plan.
