Cea Weaver: Are we closer to fixing N.Y.’s housing problem?
Episode description
A year after Gov. Kathy Hochul and state lawmakers failed to reach a deal on a housing plan, they’re back at work in the State Capitol with the governor making a more modest proposal to build affordable homes across the state.
One person who’s fighting every day to end the crisis is Cea Weaver, who co-founded the Housing Justice for All coalition. Weaver joined NY1’s Errol Louis to discuss the governor’s plans and what may make this year different from the last. They also talked about what’s known as “Good Cause Eviction,” pathways to social housing and the upside to reviving state-subsidized housing programs.
