The first television ad for statewide office in the 2026 election cycle has arrived. The ad, titled “More Housing, Lower Costs,” highlights a proposal from Warshaw to use $10 billion of the state’s $283 billion pension fund to finance new affordable housing projects. "We need to be urgent and we need to be unconventional about tackling the high costs that are crushing New Yorkers,” Warshaw said.
"We don’t elect kings in New York." Warshaw joined Capital Tonight to talk about his campaign to attack the affordability crisis – and why it’s time to bring urgency and imagination to the State Comptroller’s office.
