An interfaith group of religious leaders have called for “four more years” in office for Mayor Eric Adams as Gov. Kathy Hochul considers using her executive power to remove him from office after being pressed to do so by fellow Democrats.
“I recognize the immense responsibility I hold as governor and the constitutional powers granted to this office. In the 235 years of New York state history, these powers have never been utilized to remove a duly-elected mayor; overturning the will of the voters is a serious step that should not be taken lightly,” Hochul said in a statementMonday.
“That said, the alleged conduct at City Hall that has been reported over the past two weeks is troubling and cannot be ignored. Tomorrow, I have asked key leaders to meet me at my Manhattan office for a conversation about the path forward, with the goal of ensuring stability for the city of New York,” she said while stating that her most urgent concern is for the “well-being of my 8.3 million constituents who live in New York City.”
