John,

Yesterday was certainly an exciting day in New York City politics.

You may already know about the particular news development that I’m referring to, John.

But just in case you haven’t already heard, let me fill you in on yesterday’s big breaking news…New York City’s first-ever comprehensive capital projects dashboard is finally LIVE!

;-)

Ok, ok. I’m only joking – I know the capital projects dashboard is not the talk of the town, though I’ve been pushing for it for over a decade. And while I personally find transparency tools to be an exciting public resource, I know they don’t always result in blockbuster news headlines.

No matter what, I’m doing everything I can to make New York City run more transparently, sustainably, and efficiently. And I believe all New Yorkers deserve competent, compassionate City leadership.

If you agree, will you please consider supporting my work with a $5 contribution? If you’re in a place to do so, I would be earnestly grateful. [[link removed]]

CONTRIBUTE [[link removed]]

Here are just a few of the initiatives I’ve recently been working on as Comptroller to achieve a more competent, compassionate New York City government:

Investigating a $432 million no-bid City contract with DocGo (a medical services staffing company, without any evident experience providing shelter or services to migrants). When Mayor Eric Adams chose to move forward despite our objections, I launched a first-of-its-kind, real-time audit of the contract.

Launching the capital projects dashboard , which tracks all projects from major capital agencies: Bridge repairs, school renovations, park construction, and everything in between. New York’s capital construction process wastes millions of taxpayer dollars every year, and this new tool provides much-needed transparency into the process. I was happy to work with Mayor Adams and his team on this.

Investigating the City government’s ability to manage extreme rainfall after Tropical Storm Ophelia pummeled us in September. As the New York Times reported on our new investigation: “It remains unclear how many of the steps contained in [preparedness plans] the City has taken.” We’ll get the answers – and make recommendations to get the City on the right path to keep New Yorkers safe.

If you’re in the place to do so, please consider making a contribution of any amount so I can continue working as hard as I possibly can for a New York City government that works better for everyone. [[link removed]]

I’ll never stop working to deliver effective City services, mitigate the risks we face, and invest in the more equitable, resilient, and innovative future. That's what every New Yorker deserves.

Thank you so very much for your support,

Brad
