$15M in CEO compensation is something out of White Lotus. Exorbitant, indeed.
But pushing on the PSC hasn't solved the problem.
We have a solution to make utilities affordableโit's called NY HEAT. If we're serious about keeping costs low, we should pass it in the budget.
This slate delivers fresh faces with the right attitudes, experience, and vision for our city.
I hope you take a deeper dive into these candidates and make the decision thatโs right for you.
We have a chance to build a city we're proud of this election โ let's take it. 11/
