This week, City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams made her “State of the City” address, highlighting plans for job creation and workplace development. Speaker Adams is hoping to better fund 3K education, libraries, CUNY and affordable housing. She also looks to close the city’s massive jail complex on Rikers Island. NY1’s Zack Fink, Juan Manuel Benítez and Courtney Gross weighed in on the address and what it means for the city.

After that, Mayor Eric Adams announced the creation of a new office to oversee aid for asylum seekers. About 30,000 migrants remain in the city’s care and the new office aims to streamline the city’s aid to them. The city has spent $350 million on the crisis, and it’s costing $5 million per day. The team took a look at the mayor’s announcement and also discusses the mayor’s overall handling of the migrant crisis over the past year.
