Looking right at Donald Trump on Friday afternoon in the Oval Office, Gov. Kathy Hochul tried a different approach from telling him he was acting like a king for his attempt to end New York’s pay-for-entry congesting pricing system.

The people in my state need to know I'm willing to take the fight wherever I have to,” Gov. Kathy Hochul said.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is pushing back against President Donald Trump’s “King" remark after his administration moved to block the state’s congestion pricing program.

Hochul and Trump met for more than an hour on Friday afternoon and also discussed other issues including immigration, infrastructure, economic development, energy, offshore wind and nuclear power.
