In this episode of Power to the People, we tackle several important issues shaping Buffalo and the nation.

We discuss the ongoing debate over affordable housing on Buffalo's waterfront and the challenges of balancing development, access, and community needs. We also break down Congress's decision to vote down the extension of FISA and what that could mean for national security, privacy, and government surveillance.

Plus, we spotlight Intersect Buffalo, a new organization working to make an impact in the community, and explore what its arrival could mean for Buffalo's future.

Join us for a conversation about growth, policy, and the people driving change in our city and beyond.

Governor Kathy Hochul says childcare costs are crushing working families, and she wants New York to lead the nation in changing that.

In this conversation, she explains her push for universal childcare, early childhood education, and expanded support for families struggling with rising costs.

“I had to walk away from a job I loved because I couldn’t afford childcare.”

She also discusses putting more money back into people’s pockets by helping reduce utility bills across the state.

For many families, affordability isn’t political, it’s personal.

New York’s housing crisis is pricing people out, and Governor Kathy Hochul says outdated laws, delays, and “Not In My Backyard” politics are making it worse.

In this conversation, she explains how environmental review delays and local opposition are slowing affordable housing projects across the state and driving rents even higher.

“We can drive down the cost of rent if we build more supply.”

From Buffalo to New York City, the fight over affordable housing is becoming one of the biggest issues facing New Yorkers today.
