He discusses being tasked with redistricting New York state in lieu of recent events and explains how these two processes have stark differences. Rep. Morelle also talks about his support to end lawmakers from participating in prediction markets and his reaction to NY Governor Kathy Hochul announcing a $268B state budget.
