Adrienne Adams, City Council Speaker and the first Black woman in that role, has announced her candidacy for the 2025 NYC mayoral race. She aims to challenge Mayor Eric Adams, citing a need for leadership amidst the crises his administration faces. Highlighting issues such as high living costs and a chaotic City Hall, she insists on the importance of serving New Yorkers over political interests. Adams emphasizes unity and effective policy solutions, planning a campaign kickoff event in Queens to rally support.
It's time to stand up, the speaker said. Our city deserves a leader that serves its people first and always, not someone focused on themselves.
We can find common ground if we choose to listen and work towards solutions together. That's how I've led, and how we've successfully responded to some of our city's greatest challenges.
