Wanna congratulate speaker Adams on this historical legislation.
1:29:23
Speaker Adams also chairs Salamanca, Riley, Sanchez, and, of course, the speaker's entire team, including Jeremy, Faiza, and everyone else.
1:29:33
I've said it many times, and I'll say it again.
1:29:35
We in the Central Bronx, neighborhoods of Fordham Road, East Tremont, Belmont, we're proud of being the neighborhoods that have built some of the largest amount of affordable housing units in the entire city.
1:29:45
We're proud of that, but we cannot resolve this housing crisis alone, and we shouldn't ex be expected to do so either.
1:29:51
Every single community needs to help.
1:29:54
The housing crisis affecting our city is a serious one, and, of course, every district is unique, but everybody needs to help.
1:29:59
So vote I.
