Corey Johnson, Speaker of the New York City Council (and acting Public Advocate), talks about issues facing the City Council and takes calls from listeners.

"I don't think it's a done deal," @NYCSpeakerCoJo tells @BrianLehrer re Amazon to Queens. Johnson cites opposition from @SenGianaris, his power in Senate majority, & role of Public Authorities Control Board w/r/t project approval (tho Cuomo says PACB can't block deal).

On @BrianLehrer, @NYCSpeakerCoJo mentions yesterday's NYT article on 23 NYC Public Advocate candidates for the citywide election next month: https://t.co/0cZ5rtOvxp -which, I'll again highlight, is a sign of healthier democracy made possible by NYC's public matching funds system.
