New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and New Jersey Governor-elect Phil Murphy met this afternoon at Gracie Mansion in New York City. The Mayor and Governor-elect offered each other congratulations on their respective November election victories, before discussing a host of issues important to New York and New Jersey. The Mayor and Governor-elect outlined a shared vision for the region that includes an expansion of universal pre-K, upgraded transportation and infrastructure, and a focus on mental health investment and progressive taxation. The two pledged immediate cooperation in combating the Republican tax plan and in supporting grassroots progressive organizing locally and nationally. The meeting lasted 65 minutes. A portion of the meeting was attended by New York City First Lady Chirlane McCray.
EDITOR'S NOTE:
Could it be that Mayor Bill de Blasio is thinking of moving to New Jersey?
