以“让美国再次安全”为基调，共和党纽约州州长候选人布鲁斯·布莱克曼周一在竞选活动中乘坐纽约市地铁系统，抨击民主党州长凯西·霍楚尔是“最亲罪犯的州长”，该地铁系统一直深受暴力犯罪和通勤者安全担忧的困扰。
Striking a Make America Safe Again tone, Republican New York gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman blasted Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul as the most "most pro-criminal governor" during a Monday campaign event riding the New York City subway system, which has been plagued by violent crimes and commuter safety fears.
“我没有听到任何一个人、所有的人说纽约的地铁和公共交通更安全了，”布莱克曼在乘坐地铁时表示。“我听到的恰恰相反。每个人都说他们感觉不那么安全了。”“所以我们希望他们感到安全，”他说。
"I have not heard from one person, and from all the people, that it's safer on the subways and public transportation in New York," Blakeman said as he rode the subway. "I've heard just the opposite. Everybody says they feel less safe." "So we want them to feel safe," he said.
布莱克曼是拿骚县县长，曾任纽约新泽西港务局专员。如今竞选州长，他在周一于这个人口稠密的城市开展竞选活动，该市绝大多数是民主党的铁票仓。
Blakeman, a Nassau County executive, is a former commissioner of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Now running for governor, he was campaigning Monday in the densely populated city, which is overwhelmingly a Democratic stranglehold.
“雇佣更多警察，雇佣更多列车员，清理我们的地铁，帮助那些情绪有问题的人——给他们所需的帮助；不要让他们在我们的地铁里游荡，”布莱克曼在乘坐地铁时对记者说道，同时将矛头指向州长和纽约市市长佐赫兰·马姆达尼，地点位于这个深蓝选区。
"Hire more police officers, hire more conductors, clean up our subways and get help for those who are emotionally ill – get them help that they need; not have them roam around our subways," Blakeman told reporters as he rode the subway, targeting both the governor and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani in the deep-blue area.
“在凯西·霍楚尔和佐赫兰·马姆达尼的领导下，地铁犯罪大幅上升，”布莱克曼感叹道。“他们不致力于公共安全。我将致力于公共安全。我将确保我们的公共交通对出行公众来说更安全、更整洁。”“这才能让更多人回到公共交通，而不是通过向他们征收拥堵费，那无非是向中产阶级征税，”他补充道。
"The crime in the subways has gone up tremendously under Kathy Hochul and Zohran Mamdani," Blakeman lamented. "They are not committed to public safety. I will be committed to public safety. I will make sure that our public transportation is safer and cleaner for the traveling public." "That's how you get more people back in public transportation, not by putting a tax on them with congestion pricing, which is nothing more than a tax on the middle class," he added.
布莱克曼抨击民主党人对公共安全产生负面影响，并特别点名霍楚尔“减少了我们列车和地铁上的列车长人数”。
Blakeman hit Democrats for being negative influences on public safety, and Hochul specifically, for having "reduced the number of conductors on our trains and subways."
“他们对公共安全没有承诺，”他说。“我将致力于公共安全。我将确保我们的公共交通对出行公众来说更安全、更整洁。”增加地铁巡逻警力、改善光线昏暗地铁系统的照明都在布莱克曼的优先事项清单上，但他也讨论了让更多列车长值守地铁。
"They are not committed to public safety," he said. "I will be committed to public safety. I will make sure that our public transportation is safer and cleaner for the traveling public." More police patrolling the subways and improving the lighting in dimly lit subway systems are on Blakeman's priority list, but he also discussed having more conductors manning the subways.
霍楚尔否决了奥尔巴尼通过的一项立法，该立法本将要求更多地铁列车配备列车长，这使得大都会运输署（MTA）的单人驾驶列车运营计划得以保留，而非执行2025年6月州里通过的、要求至少配备两人车组（一名司机和一名列车长）的法案。
Hochul vetoed Albany legislation that would have required conductors on more subway trains, leaving the MTA’s one-person train operation program in place versus the June 2025 state-passed bill requiring at least two-person crews — an operator and conductor.
霍楚尔于2025年12月5日否决了该法案，理由是这将限制大都会运输署的现代化努力，并每年耗资高达1000万美元。
Hochul vetoed that bill on Dec. 5, 2025, arguing it would restrict MTA modernization efforts and cost up to $10 million annually.
“警察非常重要，但我认为当人们看到列车长时，会感到非常舒适和非常安全，”布莱克曼说。“我想增加列车长人数，让人们感到安全。”布莱克曼称霍楚尔是“美利坚合众国最亲罪犯的州长”，并引用了若干刑事司法和移民政策作为依据。
"Police are very important, but I think people feel very comfortable and very safe when they see a conductor," Blakeman said. "I want to increase the numbers so that people feel safe." Blakeman called Hochul "the most pro-criminal governor in the United States of America," citing several criminal-justice and immigration policies.
“无论是无现金保释、‘提高年龄’法案、HALT法案、《洗清污名法案》，还是拒绝与移民及海关执法局（ICE）和联邦特工合作，她都让我们变得更不安全，”他说，猛烈抨击了长期以来遭到警方团体和共和党公共安全强硬派谴责的民主党支持的立法。
"Whether it’s cashless bail, Raise the Age, the HALT Act, Clean Slate, or refusing to cooperate with ICE and federal agents, she has made us less safe," he said, striking at Democrat-backed legislation long rebuked by police groups and Republican public safety hawks.
无现金保释限制了法官要求被告缴纳保释金以获释的情形。“提高年龄”法案一般将16岁和17岁青少年排除在成人刑事法庭之外，而HALT法案限制单独监禁并改变监狱纪律惩戒做法。《洗清污名法案》在规定的等待期过后，将特定刑事定罪记录从公众视野中封存。
Cashless bail limits when judges can require defendants to put up money to be released. Raise the Age generally keeps 16- and 17-year-olds out of adult criminal court, while the HALT Act limits solitary confinement and changes prison disciplinary practices. The Clean Slate law seals certain criminal convictions from public view after a designated waiting period.
“我去纽约州的每个社区，人们都感觉不那么安全了，”布莱克曼说。
"People feel less safe in every community that I go to in New York State," Blakeman said.
