A clean, fast, 14-mile light rail line – a connection between Brooklyn and Queens like never before.

The outer boroughs are now joined so that there’s not a requirement that if you want to go see your mother in Queens from Brooklyn that you won’t have to go into Manhattan first.
Riders will save 30 minutes each way. If you’re a round-trip commuter, guess what? That’s an hour back in your life.
I don’t want any person to feel as if they aren’t getting first-rate service, so I’ve directed Janno and his team to provide a pretty much full review of what occurred this week.
Let me tell you the five states that New Yorkers are going to: They go to Florida or Texas. I understand, that weather’s better, maybe taxes.
On behalf of 20 million New Yorkers, I want to bring the condolences of your entire family, your extended family, who are there for you.
Our forces are down. Sometimes, recruitment is hard. I’m finding the same thing with even corrections officers and state police, but people are not opting for these careers anymore, and part of it may be the fact that people have been very negative and derogatory toward police officers in the last few years.
There is another family which is one that is often taken for granted by too many outside these rooms. That is the NYPD.
As the forecast shifts from extreme heat to heavy rains, I am urging all New Yorkers to stay vigilant and use caution through the end of this week.
But I agree with you, we need to increase the ranks of NYPD. There’s — they are the best and without a doubt, and they need to have more reinforcements.
