Gov. Kathy Hochul faces increasing pressure from the Seneca Nation to ink a “fair” deal to protect its gambling interests in Western New York following a series of controversies.
“We hear a lot of words coming from Albany about ‘New York values, social equality, health care as a human right, housing for all,’ but our people do not survive on words,” Tina Abrams, the senior member of the Seneca council, said Tuesday at a Capitol press conference.
“It is time for New York to honor its relationship with the Seneca Nation. It’s time for the state to complete fair negotiations with the Seneca.”
