Several months into the implementation of the How Many Stops Act, new data has confirmed racial disparities, disproportionately impacting Black and Brown New Yorkers, and an overall increase in Level 3 crimes under Mayor Adams.

With the appointment of new NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch, as Sanitation Commissioner, led the department to an unprecedented attack on homeless New Yorkers, was named a defendant in litigation that accuses the city of cruelly and unconstitutionally removing encampments of people who are homeless, and expanded the inhumane treatment of people through the sanitation department’s police force, Mayor Adams has shown once again that his commitment does not lie with the public safety of New Yorkers.

The Civilian Complaint Review Board's (CCRB) vacancies and lack of urgency to fill them further shows Mayor Adams' lack of community to transparency and accountability from the NYPD.
