New Yorkers deserve a Comptroller who protects their retirement, their tax dollars, and their future.

As New York State Comptroller, Joseph Hernandez will restore discipline, independence, and accountability to an office that directly impacts every taxpayer and public worker. His approach is straightforward: protect the pension fund, crack down on waste and corruption, and use smart, market-driven investment to rebuild New York’s economy—without risking taxpayer money or playing politics.

Crack down on waste, fraud, and abuse through aggressive audits and close coordination with law enforcement to hold wrongdoers accountable.
Rebuild New York with disciplined investment that supports job creation and economic growth without risking taxpayer or retiree dollars.
