from NYC NOW · host WNYC

New York City Representatives Nydia Velazquez, Adriano Espaillat, and Dan Goldman were looking to conduct an oversight visit at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn but were turned away. Plus, New Jersey’s gubernatorial race continues to tighten. And finally, New York’s climate law calls for the retirement of fossil fuel infrastructure. But that’s not stopping a natural gas giant from resurrecting a pipeline plan that was already rejected by the state nearly a decade ago. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
