President Joe Biden came to Sarah Lawrence College in Yonkers, to support Governor Kathy Hochul and stress the importance of this election. “Folks, Gov. Hochul’s opponent talks a good game on crime. But it’s all talk,”
“”Gov. Hochul’s opponent had a choice: He could keep cops on the job or he could cave to Republican leaders. I’ll give you one guess what he did. He caved. He voted against keeping cops on the beat, decided to play politics instead.”
“If a politician won’t stand up to his party’s leaders to keep cops on the beat and won’t stand up to the [National Rifle Association] and get assault weapons off the street, do you really think he’s going to take and help your families keep safe?”
Many Westchester Democrats attended the speech. It was the first visit to Yonkers by a sitting President since 1976.
