…In October 2011, Governor Andrew Cuomo appointed Foye to the post of executive director of the Port Authority. Cuomo ousted Christopher O.

In 2017, Foye became president of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA). On April 1, 2019, Foye was appointed chairman and CEO of the MTA by Governor Cuomo with approval from the New York State Senate.[13] In late July 2021, Pat Foye stepped down at the behest of Governor Cuomo to be replaced by Janno Lieber.[14] In September 2021, after Andrew Cuomo stepped down, Foye announced he would not become the CEO of Empire State Development, and allow Kathy Hochul to nominate her own choice.[15]
Since leaving government, Foye has advocated on behalf of ASTM in support of their proposal for a new 8th Avenue entrance to Pennsylvania Station (New York City). [16]
