On April 9, Gov. Kathy Hochul and the state legislature green lit the question. It is asking for approval to bond $4.2 billion for investment in clean water, air, wildlife and the environment over a number of years.
If this sounds familiar to you, that's because this was approved back in the 2020 budget, but the COVID-19 pandemic pumped the brakes on it.
If approved by voters, the renamed "Clean Air, Clean Water, and Green Jobs Bond Act" would be the first act like this since 1996.
