Hochul tells federal workers axed by Musk and Trump ‘You’re hired’ in new state government job recruitment campaign

By Robert Pozarycki Posted on February 25, 2025

Gov. Kathy Hochul announced on Tuesday the “You’re Hired” initiative, which aims to bring recently downsized federal employees into state government. In a video, Hochul said that the Empire State welcomes those impacted by the Trump administration’s cuts to apply for positions available in numerous state agencies.
