New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said he has proposed a plan for the city to cut $1 billion from the NYPD’s nearly $6 billion budget, according to officials and multiple reports.

De Blasio’s announcement falls in line with city council leaders’ calls for the billion-dollar cut to the police department’s budget. The Democratic mayor revealed details of his proposal during a Monday morning press conference.

He said his office presented the plan to City Council over the weekend and called this “a moment where we have to address profound issues. We need to redistribute revenue to communities that need it the most.”

He emphasized that plan is still under negotiation and officials had not reached a final agreement.

Real Estate agents are quivering in their stilletos. This is not good for NY and thus the Country and the world.

Tourism and business owners will stay away from NYC.

I've already informed my employer I will not, under any circumstances, go to NYC for business. Over the past 20 years, I've been there probably 200+ times. I shall not return.

Cannot understand how/why the residents of NYC put up with his ‘n her crap!

Well, the hipster young whites who use their refrigerators as closets because they eat out all the time and the upper crust New Yorker and Vanity Fair magazine types figure they're untouchable, and the lower end of the spectrum like the constituents in AOC's district figure they already live in a craphole so it can't get any worse.
