Speak to the Speaker: Mayor's Budget, UWS School Desegregation and Safe Injection Sites

The Brian Lehrer Show | May 1, 2018

Corey Johnson, Speaker of the New York City Council -- representing District 3 covering Hell’s Kitchen, Chelsea, the West Village, and parts of Flatiron, SoHo and the Upper West Side, talks about the City Council's response to Mayor de Blasio's executive budget and other news.

I’m discussing the executive budget proposal w/@BrianLehrer.

Though I am encouraged by many of the Mayor’s goals, I'm disappointed the proposal does not address many of the @NYCCouncil’s priorities.

The Council will fight tooth & nail to ensure the budget helps ALL New Yorkers.
