Statement by Public Advocate Gotbaum on Today's IDA Vote

“I am disappointed that the Mayor’s appointees to the Industrial Development Agency decided to reward an organization with ties to the likes of Lenora Fulani and Fred Newman. The All-Stars Project is simply Fulani and Newman’s attempt to give their bigotry and wrongdoing a cloak of legitimacy. Now their misconduct will come at the public’s expense.”
