Jessica Tisch's vision for a cleaner, safer New York: Letters to the Editor - March 1, 2025
Briefly

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch is advocating for a return to 'broken windows' policing to enhance New York City's quality of life and reduce crime. Despite her proactive leadership and past successes, including managing sanitation issues, her initiatives face resistance from state officials, progressive lawmakers, and some district attorneys. The effectiveness of law enforcement depends on legislative support and reform. Amidst these challenges, Tisch stands out within the Adams administration for her intelligence and determination, positioning her as a potentially viable mayoral candidate if she chooses to run in the future.
We should remind her critics that law enforcement is only as effective as the laws it enforces. Without reforms, police efforts will continue to be undermined.
Tisch has a demonstrated an ability to get stuff done. She took on the role of sanitation commissioner, a job few others likely wanted.
With her new efforts to revamp the department, Commissioner Tisch is once again showing her qualities. Looking ahead: If Tisch ran for mayor, New York voters might finally have a real contender.
Her task is monumental, with leftist City Council members, soft-on-crime district attorneys and judges who misunderstand their roles all working against her.
