Gov. Kathy Hochul has now released two early proposals from her State of the State message that aim to address concerns over the high cost of living.

Hochul's proposal would use state funds to reduce the child care cost to $15 per week for households making up to $108,000 a year.

The proposal would raise the credit to a maximum of $1,000 per child — the largest expansion in state history.

Hochul said she wants to provide families with an annual tax credit of up to $1,000 per child under age 4, and up to $500 per child from ages 4 through 16.
