When I first became governor four years ago, we had about $15 million allocated for security of sensitive locations like synagogues and yeshivas. I knew that was a paltry amount given the rise in anti Semitism that our city was experiencing. We increased it dramatically. It is now up to $70 million for every two year cycle. And I'm going to stand here and commit to add another $20 million in our next budget to raise it up to 90 million DOL. (01:36–01:43)
