Governor Kathy Hochul signed two bills into law Tuesday aimed at making state agencies and authorities like the MTA more transparent by providing a greater amount of data and information to the public.
“One of my highest priorities… is to restore people’s faith in their government and an important part of that is increasing transparency,” said Hochul at a press briefing on Oct. 19. “Transparency comes in many forms and there are many opportunities for us to establish that we will be the most transparent administration in the history of the state of New York.”
