ALBANY, N.Y. — Gov. Kathy Hochul vetoed a bill that would have allowed certain Monroe County sheriff’s deputies to retire after 25 years of service.

The Monroe County Legislature, County Executive Adam Bello, and Sheriff Todd Baxter supported the measure. The New York State Legislature approved it.

It would have provided equitable retirement benefits to deputies who are members of the Civil Bureau including Monroe County’s civil and jail deputies.
