Stroll through Villa Durazzo in Santa Margherita Ligure, Italy, and feel the elegance and romance that has been passed down for centuries amidst the ancient architecture and sea breeze.
Today, I had the honor of meeting members of the Emergency Service Unit, the most elite tactical team in the NYPD. ESU is called to protect New Yorkers during our gravest emergencies.

For too long, New Yorkers have come to Housing Court with emergencies — and been forced to wait weeks or months for assistance.
Not anymore. The most hazardous Housing Court cases in which the health, safety, or wellbeing of New Yorkers are at risk will now be fast tracked.

This is heartbreaking. A 13-year-old child survived such a horrific shooting and still bravely called for help. I hope she recovers soon, and I hope the truth comes out soon. What do you think the United States should do to better protect its children?

GW was intended to replace Lincoln a while ago. The interdeployment training cycle takes over a year to complete. But the news was getting so ugly they had to say something.
More to the point, GW will be in the same situation Lincoln was in.

We're redesigning 175 bus routes, representing over 70% of all routes in New York City, and the voices and experiences of New Yorkers are at the forefront of our planning.
I joined Brooklyn bus riders for a Fast Buses Town Hall to talk about how we're making buses fast and improving service.

A good mayor who cares about the people—that's what a good politician should be like.
We went "site-seeing" in the Bronx!
New York is home to 100 city-owned sites that our administration is turning into 50,000+ affordable homes.
On a double-decker tour bus in the Bronx, we explored a few of the sites that many New Yorkers will soon call home.

Twice as much to try and buy one Senate seat.
