De Blasio's policy is expected to impact nearly 500 mayoral staff members, according to the New York Times, and yield $860,000 in savings this year.

You can’t furlough yourself. You’re governor 24/7.
LOL! Did anyone ever find the $800+million that can’t be accounted for that mrs DUH-blah-zero was responsible for? “I’ll take ‘lying SOS for a $1,000 Alex.”
But this is THE Bill de Blasio. Perhaps he gave his wife a salary increase to cover his shortfall.

Is this satire?
Corruption, thy name is de Blasio.
They told NY residents to leave if they didn’t like what was being done.
Guess they took this advice.
You bet they did!
NYC would be better off with no mayor for a week, than with the one they have.
Exactly—NYC is safer when de Blasio is on a deserted island with no telecommunication.
What sort of work could possibly warrant 500 mayoral staff members ?
Wonder if that number includes these...

Meanwhike, the Kaiser and his family won’t go hungry. $850 mil should last them a while...
From last year...
Rumor that Rudy Guiliani’s son will run for either Gov or Mayor. Go for Mayor and let Eric Trump run for Gov.
In other words...more winning!
If he does, are legal experts able to determine if he can’t enforce his edicts.
I was hoping Don Jr. would do it, or run for gov.
No disrespect to Eric intended.
I just think he’s too nice to be an NYS pol.
“What sort of work could possibly warrant 500 mayoral staff members ?”
Time for a desk audit!
