Governor Kathy Hochul faces growing criticism for her mishandling of the MTA's finances, as substantial unpaid tolls contribute to a staggering $2.2 billion loss in a single year. Public sentiment is reflected in the low voter intention for her re-election, with only one-third of voters expressing support. Allegations of fiscal malpractice further underscore a state government riddled with waste and fraud, yet Hochul and Albany officials remain largely unaccountable and silent about the increasing financial crisis affecting public transport services.
Hochul has been in office since August 2021. Only one in three voters say they plan to vote for her next year, highlighting concerns over her management.
The MTA's financial malpractice includes a staggering $5.1 billion loss over four years from unpaid tolls, signaling severe issues with accountability.
Despite the staggering $2.2 billion total loss in a single year from unpaid tolls and fares, there has been no notable outrage from the governor.
The agency's management failure seems to stem from either a lack of ability or indifference to fixing the financial issues plaguing the MTA.
