Statement from New York City Comptroller on Mayor Adams’ Executive Order on Right to Shelter

 

New York City Comptroller Brad Lander issued the following statement:

“The right to shelter is a longstanding legal obligation that makes New York City stand apart from our peers as a safe and humane place for people without a home of their own. We do not need to roll shelter safety protections back, and we should not. With more support from Washington and with overdue action from the Adams Administration to provide the assistance that will help asylum seekers get on their feet and move out of shelter, we can face this challenge with both compassion and common sense.”
