This week, the Adams administration asked a state court to revisit a landmark 1981 agreement that requires the city to provide shelter for homeless New Yorkers. NY1’s Zack Fink, Bobby Cuza and Courtney Gross looked at the latest development in the shelter crisis while also discussing what other options the city may have at this point.
After that, the MTA is proposing its first base subway fare hike since 2015 — from $2.75 to $2.90. Gov. Kathy Hochul is standing behind the plan, saying “the success of the MTA is not negotiable. It has to happen.” The “Off Topic/On Politics” team weighed in on the fare hike and the significance of Hochul being the first governor to address the MTA’s monthly board meeting.
