We've had our disagreements. But in our conversations, I heard a leader who shares my commitment to a New York where children can grow up safe in their neighborhoods and where opportunity is within reach for every family.
The question of who will be the next mayor is one I take extremely seriously and to which I have devoted a great deal of thought.
I have a lot of respect for him for saying that and that he is going to do what he can to earn the respect of the men or women of the NYPD
I’ve said I don’t want to raise income taxes on high-net-worth people. I want them to know that New York is a place where we want to foster innovation — be open to your success
