Summary

Randy Mastro, First Deputy Mayor of New York City under Mayor Eric Adams, makes his debut on the program with Sid to discuss the mayor's proposal to reinstate a historical mask ban that was in place prior to COVID-19, aimed at reducing antisemitic and other hate crimes in the city. The ban seeks to prevent individuals from wearing masks during protests, a regulation that existed for over a hundred years in New York, highlighting the challenges faced in passing this law, opposition from various political factions. Mastro then points out the accomplishments of Mayor Eric Adams' administration in reducing crime and increasing job rates throughout his tenure. Learn more about your ad choices.
