STATEMENT ON ‘LETITIAGATE’ FROM NEW YORK STATE CONSERVATIVE PARTY CHAIRMAN GERARD KASSAR
“It’s bad enough that Attorney General Letitia James wants taxpayers to cover her personal legal bills—now we learn it’s Governor Hochul pulling the strings behind the scenes to make it happen. This is Albany corruption at its most brazen: a governor orchestrating a taxpayer bailout for a political ally under fire. Let’s call it what it is: ‘Letiagate.”
“Letitia James built her brand on hounding political enemies with lawsuits—now she wants the same public she claims to protect to pay her lawyers when the heat’s on her. And Kathy Hochul? She isn’t just looking the other way—she’s enabling it. She’s complicit.
“This is not leadership. It’s a con. It’s government for the insiders, by the insiders, and paid for by working New Yorkers already drowning in taxes and tolls.
“The Conservative Party is calling this what it is: a shameless abuse of power and public trust. Governor Hochul and Attorney General James owe the people of this state an apology—and a $10 million check.”
