- Council speaker tries new ‘buffer bill’ after Mamdani rebuff
City Council Speaker Julie Menin is re-introducing a revised version of a bill to establish anti-protest buffer zones around K-12 schools after Mayor Zohran Mamdani vetoed an earlier version. The new bill excludes colleges, universities, and other educational facilities, aiming to address concerns raised by Council members about the original scope. The proposal, Intro 175, remains controversial, with support from some Jewish and Catholic school groups and opposition from civil rights and union organizations.
