New York Gov. Kathy Hochul on Friday said it was “a mistake” to close schools and move to remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, citing the impact of resulting job losses on New Yorkers.
In a wide-ranging speech at the University of Albany commemorating Women’s Equality Day, Hochul, a Democrat, shared her aspirations “to get women back to where they were” before the onset of the pandemic two years ago.
