@NYCMayor When threatened a social counselor is a phone call away.

I campaigned on a commitment to create the Department of Community Safety, an unprecedented, whole-of-government approach to making sure every New Yorker is safe in our city. We just took a major step towards achieving it. Today, I signed an Executive Order creating the Office of Community Safety, led by our new Deputy Mayor Renita Francois. This office will focus on preventing gun-violence, meeting mental health crises with trained professionals, exploring innovative approaches to crime prevention, tackling hate crimes, and supporting survivors. Our city has the power to forge a bold, forward-looking vision for community safety -- and we're wasting no time using it.

@johndavittontv I'm team 65 degrees year round

Show yourself ! Who are the 12% that are team winter ?

@johndavittontv We had also been in a December snow slump before two events in 2025.

@ForgottenNY Yeah. Use to be able to typically get two snowfalls. Climatologically, March in NYC is snowier than December. March is December without the decorations(and more daylight).

Is NYC done with 20 degree days ? I say YES !

@Gothamist I live and continue to live on no more than $25 an hour for 40 years in the copy business.

“The workers we rely on, the deli guy, the delivery worker, the cashier, simply can’t afford to live with dignity here and are reaching a breaking point,” said City Councilmember Sandy Nurse, who introduced the minimum-wage legislation. “If we fail to act now, the businesses that depend on their labor will suffer as well.” gothamist.com/news/it-cant-s…

@TransAlt Bikists' war on pedestrians is not over.

Huge news: the war on biking is over! Today, the Mamdani administration announced that it’s finally ending the previous administration’s wrongheaded and bizarre targeting of New Yorkers on bikes.

@johndavittontv April can surprise.

@ImpunityCity @SophLebo Impartial journalism, as the kidz say, is so Boomer

I don't know why your so gleeful about this @sophlebo. As a journalist you're supposed to be impartial and its unethical how you are normalizing illegal cycling and ebike driving like the guy driving on the wrong lane and running the red (2 tickets) and obliviously not acknowledging the crosswalk that pedestrians use. This is also a waste of tax dollars and absolves the cyclist and the ebike driver of their irresponsible unsafe and selfish behavior. "Training" won't do shit because recidivists never learn When another person gets injured or killed by an ebike driver like Priscilla Loke, Theresa Valenti and Luis Ruiz, you and streetsblog . com will have the same blood on your hands as well as the stupid, illegal immigrant policy supporting @transalt intern @NYCMayor

Bring back Art Deco.

@GregIMilner @goldfisheater0 @VickieforNYC You infract, we infract, we'll all infract

@ForgottenNY @goldfisheater0 @VickieforNYC So…you get that it’s an infraction.

16mph isn't speeding. It's a general tax on drivers, intended specifically to extract as much money as possible while frustrating ordinary people out of their cars entirely. It's no coincidence that this impossibly low speed limit materialized during a budget crisis. This is the action of a government that hates its constituents.

@goldfisheater0 @VickieforNYC You guys love blocking traffic when you have a beef, so you’re well acquainted with infractions.

@ForgottenNY @VickieforNYC Obstructing traffic by going unnecessarily slow is also an infraction, if you didn't know.

@katie_honan For many years that was the one and only political aspect.

What category is the “England Get Out of Ireland” banner in the parade every year

@bfurnas @NYDailyNews @NYCMayor Make subways safer and eliminate 10-15 headways on weekends, running regular service instead of reroutes.

@StreetsblogNYC Dissenters will be silenced!

Council Member Linda Lee's suggestion to slow bus and bike lane deployment in her district showed why Transportation Committee Chair Sean Abreu may need to turn his fire towards his colleagues if he wants to see the Streets Master Plan become a reality. nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/03/18/cit…
