Around NYC
1. New metric says ‘true cost’ of NYC is unaffordable for most
A new way to measure the economic well-being of New Yorkers shows millions fall short. The metric is referred to as the “True Cost-of-Living,” detailed in a new report that City Hall released.
The report was drafted as part of a citywide ballot measure voters approved more than three years ago, along with a report to address racial inequities.
2. Knife-wielding man in stable condition after being shot by police in Harlem
A man is in stable condition after being shot by police early Monday morning in Harlem. The man is currently in custody at Harlem Hospital. His name has not been released, and as of 6 p.m. Monday, no charges have been filed.
Surveillance video shows the moments before police shot the knife-wielding suspect outside a supermarket.
3. Hundreds mark Passover with anti-ICE protest
On the sixth night of Passover, hundreds, of all ages, gathered in Union Square not just to celebrate, but to demand change.
“We can’t really celebrate a holiday of liberation when so many of our neighbors are in captivity,” Sophie Ellman-Golan of Jews for Racial and Economic Justice said.
Their demand is to pass the” New York for All Act,” which would limit how much state and local agencies cooperate with federal immigration enforcement.
