This policy faced an investigation into its impact and racial inconsistency.
According to the report, 54%of those who were visually transported in 2024 were black New Yorkers despite the fact that only 23%of the city’s population was composed. In addition, more than 40% of the transported people were not recognized for the treatment of inpatient patients and questioned whether the policy connected people with the needs.
The Mayor of Adams dismissed concerns about racial inconsistency and defended the approach of the media.
Adams said, “We saw and saw the homeless people on the subway system. Look at the national population statistics of the homeless people. Try to look at the national population statistics of people who prosecuted some of the crimes that push people in the subway system. We will go where the service is. “
The city council also emphasizes another amazing discovery. Although public transportation focused on removing people from the transportation system, it was five times higher in private houses than public places such as subways.
Advocates argue that instead of expanding vision removal, the city will help people achieve long -term stability by increasing funding for community -based mental health programs.
