From The Hill’s article on the announcement:

The announcement came after a string of high-profile crimes on trains in the city, according to The Associated Press. However, crime and subway system killings have fallen in general in New York City since a rise amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

“I’m not here today to talk to you about numbers and tell you stats and statistics about what’s going up or what’s going down, I’m here to take action,” Hochul said. “Because that’s what the situation requires.”

Reality doesn’t matter, what matters is using security theater to paper over how obvious it is I’ve risen to the level of my incompetency!
