Description
Nonprofit groups and the New York City Council are urging the Adams administration to keep funding in place for shelter staffers who help homeless students navigate the school system. Meanwhile, meteorologists are saying the worst is over with the storm that pounded New York City overnight but don't put that umbrella away yet. Plus, Texas Governor Greg Abbott will visit New York City on Thursday evening as the keynote speaker at the annual State Republican Party gala, a clear signal of the Republicans’ campaign strategy this election year: leaning into voters’ discontent over immigration. WNYC’s Arya Sundaram reports. Finally, a new report from a city watchdog finds that New York City police officers routinely ignore abuse of the parking permits issued to roughly 95,000 city employees. WNYC’s Sean Carlson speaks with reporter Charles Lane, who has analyzed the report.
