MAYOR DE BLASIO

Mayor de Blasio announced this month the Shop Your City initiative.  Go to nyc.gov/supportsmallbusinesses.  

On December 16, 2020 Mayor de Blasio shared his thoughts about a Federal stimulus package:

"Direct payments to people are a step in the right direction, but a deal that sidelines local aid is a deal that sidelines our recovery.  Congress must work together to provide funding for localities to ensure public services can remain intact. Local governments like New York City are in the midst of fighting back COVID-19, and without local aid, this deal fails to meet the moment."
