NY Daily News Op-Ed

On Sunday, I went to Brooklyn’s Brownsville neighborhood with Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams and New York City Council Members Jumaane Williams and Ritchie Torres.

I came away from this visit more determined than ever to address the affordable housing crisis and to build an economy that works for all of us, not just those on top.

In the wealthiest country in the history of the world, the estimated 600,000 people who live in New York City’s public housing facilities should not be forced to struggle with leaky roofs, mold, unreliable heating, broken down elevators and vermin. As a nation, we must do better than that.


....


When it comes to the crisis of poverty and inequality, communities like Brownsville are ground zero. More than a third of Brownsville’s young men are unemployed. About 46% of Brownsville’s residents rely on food stamps to feed themselves and their families. The poverty rate in Brownsville is over 35%.

2. I only wish the MSM had not been so selfish and greedy and had gotten Berni's message

out to everyone, instead of hiding him under a bush. This is a message to heal the nation and lift everyone. Instead all they could focus on was their own greed. Their time is coming.
