Saratoga N.Y., Today, House Republican Leadership Chairwoman Elise Stefanik released the following statement:

"Kathy Hochul was caught red handed for secretly pardoning a violent illegal felon. Her dangerous secret pardon of this violent criminal illegal who should have been deported 35 years ago after his conviction is just another example of her putting criminals and illegals first instead of law abiding New Yorkers. What is most shameful is the Worst Governor in America Kathy Hochul issued this heinous pardon in secret, hoping New Yorkers wouldn’t find out."
