Eric Adams' fight with NYC Council over controversial cop reporting bill gets snippy at back-to-back press conferences
Briefly

I know when I have communicated with some of the City Council members, some of them have shared, my constituency don't believe this. My constituency believe that this is a harmful bill. Some of them have said that, you know, if they were able to vote with their conscience, they would not vote for this bill. Some of them have indicated that they're afraid to vote with their conscience, and I said we should be more fearful of our safety in this city than any other item.
This legislation is a part of a multi-generational effort to increase transparency and accountability, with support from communities most harmed by historical and justices, families who have lost loved ones to violence and everyday workers. We stand united in support of this important reform - and against the mayor's veto. We look forward to overriding it together.
