In an outrageous bid to grab more power - but not an ounce of added accountability - City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams and her lefty allies are seeking a council veto over top-ranked mayoral hires.
The mayor is elected citywide to run the city; he (or, someday, she) deserves his own choices to run city agencies.
Most average New Yorkers don't even know the name of their council rep.
The correct reform would be undoing the 2019 change to allow the City Council veto over mayoral appointments, aiming to maintain qualified individuals in top positions.
