Explore New York readings, major events and reviewed actions on the same date scale. New York officeholders appear in separate lanes. National event evidence describes national context; it does not measure a New York effect.

FactVote uses NAEP Data Service mean scale scores for all public-school students in New York. The series uses the total student group and the main reading and mathematics composite scales for Grade 4 and Grade 8. NAEP is generally administered every two years; the 2021 administration was postponed, so the timeline moves from 2019 to 2022. NAEP results are estimates from a sample. Statistical significance, not a visual gap alone, determines whether scores differ. Each grade and subject has its own scale. Follow one line over time rather than comparing the numeric distance between grades or subjects. Annual observations use December 31; monthly observations use the first of the month. Lines connect consecutive readings and do not supply values between them. Missing observations break the lines.

How major events are selected

The timeline combines the corresponding national fact’s reviewed event catalog, labeled National context, with individually reviewed state milestones. State events use primary sources and distinguish signing, effective and filing dates. Each milestone keeps its source-check date, geographical limits and evidence limits. This curated selection is not a complete history.

Date ranges affect events and actions. Action type, status and official-name search affect government records only. Events remain separate from action counts. An event after the latest observation extends context without creating a new reading.

Adults with at least a high school diploma

88.0%2020–2024 estimate

Share of New York residents age 25 and older whose reported attainment is a regular high school diploma or equivalent (including GED or an alternative credential), some college, or an associate’s or higher degree.

This source snapshot keeps its own definition and period. A rank shown elsewhere applies only to that comparison’s measure and period.

Method and limitations

U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts estimate derived from the American Community Survey.

  • This is adult educational attainment, not the current public-school graduation rate.
  • It combines people educated in different states, countries, and time periods.

Are students finishing school?

The federal comparison uses a common adjusted cohort and school year. A newer state graduation snapshot, where retained, uses its own source and period; adult attainment is a separate measure.

Federal public-school cohort graduation rate

Share of the adjusted ninth-grade public-school cohort graduating in four years. From 2017–18, the federal measure counts regular diplomas and eligible state-defined alternate diplomas for students with the most significant cognitive disabilities; earlier years count regular diplomas only.

Published NCES state comparison through 2021–22. Rounded whole percentages produce tied ranks. Missing or suppressed values are excluded. Any newer state graduation snapshot uses its own period and cannot inherit this rank.

Since taking office in 2019, Attorney General James has focused on lowering costs for working families, holding bad actors accountable, and protecting New Yorkers’ rights and safety. Attorney General James has secured more than $9 billion from individuals and corporations who have taken advantage of New Yorkers, including more than $3 billion from opioid manufacturers and distributors for their roles in the deadly opioid epidemic and more than $70 million in settlements from neglectful nursing homes. Under her leadership, the Office of the Attorney General has taken over 9,500 guns off New York’s streets and has worked to stop the proliferation of ghost guns that harm our communities. Attorney General James has consistently led multistate coalitions to challenge unlawful federal actions when they threatened New Yorkers’ civil rights, health care access, and the rule of law. She has sued the Trump Administration more than 50 times to protect New Yorkers’ rights and funding for critical programs like healthcare, public education and good jobs.

Objective: Lower the cost of living so Long Island families can stay here, raise their children here, and give the next generation a real shot at buying a home in the communities they grew up in.Before I left for my last deployment, one hundred dollars could fill an entire shopping cart. Today, I am lucky if it covers a couple of bags. Life on Long Island has become unaffordable. Health care feels out of reach, education is harder to access, and childcare costs are through the roof.Too many young people are told that higher education is the path to opportunity, only to graduate buried in debt with fewer chances to get ahead. I am still paying off my own student loans, and I know how hard it is to build a future when debt follows you long after graduation. That pressure makes it even harder for young people to stay on Long Island and put down roots.I saw the cost of living take its toll early in my life. When I was growing up, my family felt the impact of Long Island’s rising costs firsthand, as we were forced to leave because staying was no longer affordable. That experience stayed with me. No one should have to choose between staying close to family and being able to afford a decent life.Long Islanders are working harder than ever and still falling further behind. Affordability is about fairness, opportunity, and respect for the people who make this region work. I will fight to make Long Island a place where working families, young people, and seniors can not only stay, but build a real future.

How statements are selected

This section matches specific schools, learning, college costs and educational attainment terms in retained, attributed source text from published New York candidate profiles. A profile heading or biography alone does not qualify. The Florida geography is fixed; saved state preferences cannot change these results. A mention can concern a community or group rather than Florida’s statewide measure.

Matching is automatic and does not establish a candidate’s stance, the accuracy of a claim, or an effect on the measured result. Results are grouped by recorded race, then by candidate name. Within each candidate, the matching issue mentions appear first. Only candidates with matching retained statements are shown; this is not a complete race roster. Repeated identical text for the same candidate is shown once. Coverage follows the existing state profiles and is not a complete record of all candidates or everything they have said. Review dates are not statement dates.

What sponsorship and proposal counts tell us

Only current New York officeholders retained in the reviewed collection qualify. Bills require a recorded primary sponsorship; cosponsors and signing officials are excluded from sponsorship counts. An official introducer recorded as acting by request is labeled “Introduced by request”; that procedural role does not establish personal policy endorsement. Governor and agency records qualify when recorded as proposed. A separately verified governor transmittal can also establish an original proposal whose latest status reflects its later outcome. Signing an enacted law alone does not establish a proposal. A record appearing under several facts is counted once per officeholder. A bill with multiple primary sponsors appears under each recorded sponsor.

Enacted bills, adopted resolutions and unsuccessful measures remain visible as proposal history. Passing one chamber is not enactment. These counts do not measure effectiveness or prove that an action changed a New York statistic. Collection reviewed Sep 3, 2026.
