ALBANY – NYGOP Chair Ed Cox has criticized Kathy Hochul for her fundraising trip to Philadelphia while anti-Semitic violence continues to plague New York. Cox expressed his concerns, stating, “Anti-Semitic violence has erupted on college campuses around New York State and Kathy Hochul is AWOL in Philadelphia to raise money.”

Cox further highlighted the lack of support for Jewish New Yorkers and those concerned about leftwing anti-Semitism from top New York Democrats, including Hochul. He remarked, “Jewish New Yorkers, and all those who care about the scourge of leftwing anti-Semitism plaguing our state and country, have no friend in Kathy Hochul or other top New York Democrats, who have either been silent in the face of this ongoing evil or, in the case of AOC and Jamaal Bowman, made common cause with Hamas sympathizers.”
