Mayor Eric Adams announced on Friday that his administration would eliminate a rule requiring people to stay in shelters for at least 90 days before they can apply to a city rental subsidy program.

While housing affordability has been at crisis levels for years, New York City faces increasing pressure to move people out of its shelter system amid the arrival of tens of thousands of migrants over the past year. More than 97,000 people currently live in city-run shelters; roughly half of them are migrants.

WNYC's David Brand spoke with All Things Considered host Sean Carlson about the end of the "90 day rule" and what it means for city struggling with housing and affordability crises.
