NYC mayor asks lawmakers for more funds control of schools
ALBANY AP Mayor Bill de Blasio urged lawmakers to boost New York City funding and grant him permanent mayoral control of city schools. He framed his plea around homelessness, housing, and education while challenging Cuomo on underfunding and school control plans. He cited NYC as 43 percent of state population yet bearing 50 percent of taxes, and asked for $300 million for housing safety and homelessness plus reforms to rental protections. The testimony followed a tense relation with Cuomo as both prepare for a March 31 budget deadline and a meeting with legislative leaders including new speaker Carl Heastie.
