Erica Sherman/Brooklyn BP’s Office, Sliwa for NYC Mayo
Mayoral candidates Eric Adams, left, and Curtis Sliwa, right.
Sliwa, who is unlikely to win the mayor’s race because of the high numbers of Democrats in New York, criticized Adams’ hobnobbing with city elites and trendy teenage TikTokers, claiming that the Brooklyn Borough President was more fixed on “keeping up with the Kardashians” and “raising the roof” than he was on the issues facing the city.
‘The loss of an innocent baby as well as five other individuals in just one weekend is more heartbreaking evidence that New York City’s lame efforts to protect its people from arrogant, irresponsible, and entitled automobile drivers has been an epic failure.’
‘Our city has long suffered from a lack of housing and mistrust from our elected officials. But by reaching out to people who disagree and remain circumspect of city proposals, I believe that a pathway to understanding and producing opportunities for working-class families is the connection to lower the rhetoric and find ways to work together.’
Además de las ayudas federales que maneja la Agencia Federal para el Manejo de Emergencias (FEMA, por sus siglas en inglés) hay recursos adicionales para las personas afectadas por las inundaciones disponibles a través de la ciudad y el estado de Nueva York, varias de estas disponibles para personas indocumentadas.
“This is going to be a place where we welcome business and not turn into the dysfunctional city that we have been for so many years,” Adams said, discussing a multi-pronged plan that includes tax incentives and zoning changes to woo growing industries like cybersecurity and blockchain, and offer free or subsidized childcare for parents.
