The top contender to become New York City’s next mayor outlined his pro-police position on Thursday during the first Democrat primary debate.
“The first thing I’d do as mayor is go to our police force and say that ‘Your city needs you. Your city needs you to do your jobs professionally, responsibly, and justly.’ But the police are going to be a core way for us to address the public safety concerns that so many New Yorkers have,” Andrew Yang, the former Democrat presidential candidate, told the forum.
