Hochul invoked the hymn, “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” during her address from the pulpit of the Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem as she addressed the crowd of more than 1,000 worshippers, then casually praised District Attorney Alvin Bragg after she flubbed his title.

Gov. Kathy Hochul unveiled the proposal during her 2026 State of the State address on Tuesday. It would require 3D printers sold in New York to include technology that blocks the unlicensed production of firearms and gun parts. It would also make it a crime to possess, sell or distribute digital blueprints for printing illegal guns.

Mitchaux Booker was sentenced to 18 years in prison for the manslaughter of his cousin Jallen McConnie, concluding the case with other family members already convicted.

The CRYPTO Act would criminalize unlicensed crypto businesses, with penalties escalating to felony charges and up to 15 years in prison.
