'Today is a historic day in New York City, but, more importantly, for working-class New Yorkers. We showed the nation that government can still be bold and brave by passing the most pro-housing piece of legislation in city history.' Mayor Eric Adams emphasized the significance of the legislation in addressing the housing crisis, highlighting the government’s proactive role in ensuring lower rent and benefiting the community.
'Today, we lay the foundation to prevent tens of thousands of New Yorkers from enduring [homelessness], reversing decades of racist zoning policies that have harmed Black and Brown communities,' said Shams DaBaron, reinforcing the legislation's impact on vulnerable populations and its aim to rectify historical zoning inequalities.
