Brad Lander's Framework for Great Public Schools and Critique of Cuomo and Adams

Published | Video Starts at 15:39

I mean, look, we've audited the Adams administration's mental health programs and found them to be failing utterly. The homeless sweeps program, over the most recent six month period, forcibly removed over 3,000 people from where they were sleeping. Not a single one of them got connected to housing and permanent housing and services. The vast majority, over 95%, were just back on the street that very night. Andrew Cuomo is doubling down on Eric Adams fake failed mental health programs. (15:39–15:45)

CLAIM

Asserts that none of the 3,000 people removed were connected to housing and services.
