Join me as I deliver a farewell address to New Yorkers. Watch:

Today I signed legislation requiring banks to take several actions that prevent overdraft fees. We continue to face the economic impacts of COVID and this law will help many NY residents who need it most.

Many unvaccinated New Yorkers have been waiting for full FDA approval of a COVID vaccine. Great news—that just happened. For anyone who was waiting, today is a great day to get the FDA-approved Pfizer vaccine! #VaccinateNY 

Today's update on the numbers: Total COVID hospitalizations are at 2,017. Of the 101,685 tests reported yesterday, 3,816 were positive (3.75% of total). Sadly, there were 28 fatalities.

I am granting clemency to 6 people. These individuals have shown remorse, rehabilitation and commitment to their communities. I thank all the volunteer attorneys representing clemency applicants for their dedication and service to justice.

We didn't get everything done that we wanted to and we didn't always get it quite right. But I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that every day, I worked my hardest. I gave it my all, and I tried my best, to deliver for you.

At midnight, Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul will become governor. She is smart and competent, and I believe she will step up to the challenge. I wish her every success.

Some people just can't get the facts straight. Yes, I was downstate monitoring storm response for a few days, but Captain and I are a man and his dog. He is part of our family and that’s the way it will always be.
