December 25, 2025 Merry Christmas, New York 🎄 From Long Island to the North Country, from our cities to our small towns, I want to wish every New Yorker a peaceful and joyful Christmas. This season is about family, reflection, generosity, and hope. It’s about checking on one another, remembering those who are struggling, and appreciating the people who keep this state moving every single day—often without recognition. No matter your background, party, or beliefs, Christmas reminds us that kindness still matters, community still matters, and New York is stronger when we look out for each other. May your home be warm, your table be full, and your heart be steady as we head into a new year with renewed purpose and resolve. God bless you, and God bless New York. — Jason S.
