NYS Senator Dean Murray has commented on the Governor's recent decision to grant early release to convicted felons, citing a shortage of corrections officers as the reason. Murray highlighted that the staffing issue was exacerbated when "the Governor fired 2,000 trained corrections officers, refused to negotiate with NYS employees and provide them with basic safety on the job." He expressed concerns that the decision to mitigate the staff shortage by releasing inmates would "make New York less safe."
