Rob Bennett for the Office of Mayor Bill de Blasio
Mayor de Blasio attends the 2014 graduation ceremony for new correction officers.
‘Mayor de Blasio’s new budget, which prioritizes our city’s paramilitary police and corrections department over much-needed public services, indicates the city believes otherwise.’
‘A mass release in the name of public health could signal a watershed in shifting priorities from law and order policies that fail distressed communities.’
