Hochul doled out at least $415,000 on private jets while cracking down on polluters
 
Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) has spent around $415,000 on private jet flights since 2021.

The money was doled out by her campaign committee, with the most spent in 2022 during her reelection campaign against former Rep. Lee Zeldin.

A pilot experienced in private aviation told the New York Post that Hochul's use of a private jet is "very wasteful."
 

"It’s very wasteful, especially for an elected official," he said. "There is no reason why any elected official in New York should be taking a private jet. Nearly everywhere in New York or upstate has a [commercial] airport that will take you anywhere in the country."
