"New York State Government Grapples with Cyberattack Amid Budget Negotiations"
The New York state Legislature's bill drafting office experienced a cyberattack, causing the bill drafting system to be down since early Wednesday. The incident occurred as the Legislature is finalizing its state budget bills, but Governor Kathy Hochul stated that it is not expected to significantly delay the process. The office is reverting to an older system to continue its work, and officials do not believe the attack will disrupt the overall process.
