In the latest installment of the pod’s series of sitdown interviews with the Democratic mayoral contenders, Lander talked about how he’d accomplish his “number one commitment I am making in this campaign to end street homelessness for people with serious mental illness,” his ambitious plan to get 500,000 new homes built in the next 10 years including “the next generation of Mitchell-Llama” for working class New Yorkers, and much more.
“People want honest and effective leadership. I’ve got a track record of making government work for people, and that’s what I’m laying out and that’s the way that I’m going to beat Andrew Cuomo,” Lander said. “They don’t want someone who’s corrupt and just in it for themself. We have had that for the last four years, and we don’t want it for the next four.”
