WNYC News | Apr 5, 2021

In this week's look ahead: New Yorkers over 16 become eligible for a vaccine on Tuesday. We look at what President Biden's offshore wind plan might mean for our area. The New York State budget is late. And speaking of late: the Mets open their season today, after a COVID-related postponement. Meanwhile, local lawmakers are hoping Major League Baseball will move the All-Star Game to New York.
