NEW YORK CITY SHOOTING CLAIMS LIFE OF 71-YEAR-OLD WOMAN

Enriqueta Rivera was shot in the back while in the Bronx as the city continues
to grapple with gun violence.

As New York City cripples under monumental budget cuts due to a migrant crisis
straining public resources, the city council is planning to consider a series of
measures that would, among other things, remove statues of major historical
figures like George Washington and create a reparations task force. 




The items are included in New York City’s council agenda for Tuesday, September
19, 2023. The council’s Cultural Affairs Committee will hold a public hearing on
a measure to remove works of art on city property that "depict a person who
owned enslaved persons or directly benefited economically from slavery, or who
participated in systemic crimes against indigenous peoples or other crimes
against humanity."

This criteria would include figures like America’s first president George
Washington, Dutch governor and New York settler Peter Stuyvesant, as well as
Christopher Columbus – all of whom have statues throughout the city.

If the Public Design Commission (PDC) determined not to remove the work of art,
then it would be required to include a plan to install an "explanatory plaque"
next to the work of art. The proposal would also require PDC to consult with the
Department of Education to install plaques on sidewalks or other public space
adjacent to schools named after a person that fits the criteria.

Also on Tuesday’s agenda is a proposal to create a task force to "consider the
impact of slavery and pas injustices for African Americans in New York City and
reparations for such injustices." 

Other proposals call for anti-racism training for human services contractors and
city employees as well as requiring the placement of an information sign near
the intersection of Wall and Pearl Streets "to mark the site of New York’s first
slave market."

These proposals come as the city has been crippled under extreme budget cuts due
to the influx of migrants the city's mayor says are straining public resources. 

NYC Mayor Eric Adams said last week that the influx of tens of thousands of
migrants will bring a "financial tsunami" as departments are forced to slash
budgets to accommodate the new arrivals. 



The mayor further warned that every city department will likely see budget cuts
to address the anticipated $12 billion price tag of the migrant crisis.

A spokesperson for Adams’ office told Fox News Digital that the mayor is
reviewing tomorrow’s proposals. A spokesperson from city council did not
immediately respond to a request for comment.
