"The urgency of this mayor-made crisis mandates everyone with tools at their disposal – the governor, other elected leaders, voters – use them to meet this moment. My office is reviewing the details, feasibility, and potential impact of this announcement.
"Proposing laws to constrain a specific person underscores the harm of having that person in office as mayor. Before attempting to create new structures and precedents, though, I hope the governor will fully consider all current contingencies, including the upcoming decision from Judge Ho. And I hope that the mayor will fully consider the damage to New York that he would cause through a reduction in the city’s autonomy, as he contemplates his own future.
"No one can deny the need for action at this point, and the fact that the governor feels the need to step in once again speaks to the gravity of the moment and the validity of concerns about this mayor. Any initiatives undertaken to correct the mayoral crisis of leadership must balance the need to protect the city in this moment, without creating unintended harm beyond it."
