Hochul also announced $45 million for GO SEMI: Governor’s Office of Semiconductor Expansion, Management and Integration.

“With new, deeper commitments to housing, education, and economic development, our budget will build on Micron’s investment to create opportunity for even more New Yorkers, and I look forward to working with local leaders to make this vision for Central New York a reality,” Hochul said.
