ALBANY – NYGOP Chair Ed Cox released the following statement in response to the latest report on Kathy Hochul’s burgeoning Medicaid scandal:

“This is the latest example of the corruption, incompetence and political pay-to-play that define Kathy Hochul’s Albany.

“Billions of taxpayer dollars have been funneled through a no-bid contract to a politically connected company that stole from thousands of vulnerable patients and home care workers. Even Democrats are now admitting what New Yorkers have long known: Hochul’s administration is rotten to the core.

“Governor Hochul owes New Yorkers a full accounting of who profited, who knew, and how this no-bid boondoggle was allowed to happen. The corruption and mismanagement driving families from this state start right at the top.”
