New York Republicans urge Hochul to remove district attorney following attack on NYPD officers by migrants

New York Republicans are urging Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) to remove Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for refusing to seek bail for several migrants suspected of attacking two NYPD officers last week.

State Senate Minority Leader Rob Ortt and 19 other state senators sent a letter to Hochul on Tuesday, writing that Bragg’s “unconscionable handling of the recent attack on two NYPD officers by a gang of migrants outside a Times Square shelter must be the final straw.”
