May 31, 2022Justin Brannan Did Not Rally for the NYPD Bill

Did you all hear that NYC Council failed to pass a bill? Apparently all bills get passed in NYC Council, yet no one is talking about it. (See story in City and State)

The bill was created to reward long-serving NY police officers with a pension deal.
The bill seemed reasonable. (See the bill)

Justin Brannan voted in favor of the bill, but he never mentioned it on social media. When Justin Brannan wants a bill to pass, he will continuously talk about it.
Here’s how the NYC Council voted:

SIXTEEN NYC COUNCIL CANDIDATES ABSTAINED FROM VOTING.


This bill won’t appear on Brannan’s social media for “upcoming bills,” press releases or newsletters.
