Intelligence sharing, that's going to be a game-changer for us. Being able to be aggressive, looking at those sales, following up to make sure that those guns are still in the hands of the person that bought them, that's going to be key. So I welcome those.

We're in a good, I think, a place with both our Governor and the White House.
Look, every mayor's going to tell you that they need more resources. What we've seen that's been successful is the things that I talked about before, but we've also I think done a lot with diversion at the police station.
Unfortunately, some people like to politicize the pandemic. And that's not just something that happens on one side of the political divide.
I get that people are scared. This Omicron surge is real. And we're doing everything that we can across our city to mitigate it.
