from NYC NOW · host WNYC

New York’s highest court rejected former Gov. Cuomo’s attempt to strip the state ethics board of its enforcement power. Plus, New York's Lt. Gov. Delgado develops an independent streak. Also, WNYC’s Ramsey Khalifeh reports on the man who broke a racial barrier that has since offered a pathway to the middle class for countless Black people and other people of color. And finally, WNYC’s Sean Carlson talks with New York City’s interim Commissioner of Health Michelle Morse about life expectancy rates for New Yorkers. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
