00:00We do not allow ICE agents into city properties such as a school or a hospital without a judicial
00:06warrant signed by a judge, as well as additional directives to ensure full compliance with these
00:12policies across every city agency. The Department of Homeland Security is
00:17shouting off about your executive order today. They said that it's going to make New Yorkers
00:23less safe as a direct result of the policy, and they say there are 7,000 migrants who are in the
00:29custody of New York's jurisdiction with an active detainer and that you should not release them.
00:34What's your message to the secretary? My message to everyone is that these are policies that keep
00:40New Yorkers safe. These are policies that are motivated by delivering public safety, not in
00:45spite of public safety. And today's executive order was in part a restatement of existing city policy
00:52about the fact that we do not allow ICE agents into city properties such as a school or a hospital
00:58without a judicial warrant signed by a judge, as well as additional directives to ensure
01:03full compliance with these policies across every city agency, the directive to create an interagency
01:11apparatus that can respond in times of sudden crisis, and to take every measure we can to protect
01:18New Yorkers' privacy. Those are the things that keep New Yorkers safe. Safety is what we're
01:22motivated by, that's what we're going to deliver. Thank you.
01:26Mr. Mayor, have you considered asking New Yorkers to call 9-1-1 directly instead of 3-1-1 to avoid all of those
01:34crops and to create a more urgent sense of having a call right now? And also, of the people that your
01:42clinicians, your officers have interacted with, you said you've made 27 involuntary
01:47questions. How many people have they interacted with where they said, no, that person does have a
01:53capacity to decide, I'm going to stay out on the street?
01:56So, I don't have that number for you. But on the first question, would you mind just restating
02:05that, Nicole? Oh, yes, yes. This has been a part of typical code blue policies. However, once we get to the end
02:14of this winter storm, we're going to be doing a full reflection as to what the city's policies have been
02:19thus far, what need to be changed. Thank you.
02:22Right behind you, I'm going to...
02:23Yeah, hi.
02:24Hey, how's it?
02:26It's Boris Herrmann from Germany's newspaper, Süddeutsche Zeitung.
02:30Hello.
02:31Hi. There's a growing debate in Europe
02:34about boycotting the Soccer World Cup in the United States, using some policies of the federal
02:40government, like Minneapolis, Greenland, you know that. So, as a former player of the
02:46Talking Headers, and also the city where a couple of games are played, what do you think about
02:52boycotts, and what would be an appropriate way to show for international soccer fans that
02:59are not happy with Canada?
03:01You said as a former player. I was wondering who it was going to be in reference to.
03:04And somehow it's me.
03:08I am incredibly passionate about the world's game. I am incredibly excited at the prospect
03:16of hosting the world here in this city and across this country for the most watched sporting event
03:24across the globe. And I also understand why many have shared their own critiques of policies that
03:34we're seeing across this country. I have engaged in that myself, in criticisms, especially around
03:40immigration enforcement, as we've been speaking about today. And I know that you referenced as one
03:43of the motivators of that. I will leave it to others to make their own determinations. What I will say,
03:48however, is that we are very excited here in New York City to welcome the world and to show that not
03:53only is this a city where the world is at home, but it's also a city where much of the world has found
03:57a home. And that those New Yorkers are so excited at the prospect of seeing every single part of
04:02themselves reflected in, hopefully, what will be an incredible tournament.
04:06You guys have a good one more question.
04:08Hi, Mayor. So, we checked out a couple of warming centers today. At one of them, the bus was not there.
04:13We circled the block. Another one had very minimal signage and, like, two people on board.
04:18Another one also had minimal signage. So, when will that clear additional signage be put up?
04:22And then what's the protocol of the warming bus is just not there?
04:25Well, a warming bus should be exactly where it's supposed to be. And signage is something that ever
04:30since it's been brought up to us, that has actually been in progress for us to put up that
04:35signage to make clear in every possible way where this is. The other part of what I mentioned earlier
04:40today is that we are now adding in as a tool into Link NYC kiosks, where not only can New Yorkers
04:48make a call directly to 311 to inform them of a homeless individual that's in need of help,
04:52but also there will be a way in which to find a list of warming centers as well.
