Delivering a fairer, safer, and brighter future for Every New Yorker. Official account of the 110th Mayor of NYC. He/Him/His

New Yorkers, we're getting snow starting Saturday evening. Our teams are ready, and we're expecting 3 to 5 inches. It will start as a wintry mix tomorrow afternoon and becoming snow later that night. It could become a mix again overnight before tapering off Sunday morning.

.@jairbolsonaro if you want to barge into our city and brag about destroying our environment or how you’re a “proud homophobe” then New Yorkers are going to call you on your crap. If it’s “radical” to stand up against your destructive ideology, then we’re PROUD radicals.
Brazil’s president Jair Bolsonaro goes after De Blasio: a ‘radical’ who’d receive him in the ‘worst possible’ way. “I couldn’t visit a city where its highest-ranking official, the mayor in this case, was acting like a radical” Jair Bolsonaro said.
