Mayor Bill de Blasio gave a pumped-up version of his stump speech as his inaugural State of the City Address Monday, ticking off the progressive policies he said will help transform the "tale of two cities" into shared prosperity.

Mr. de Blasio steered clear of embracing new proposals, sticking to the well-worn list of policies that he championed during his mayoral campaign last year. He vowed to expand living-wage and paid-sick-leave laws, to push Albany to allow the city to raise its minimum wage, and to compel the real estate industry to build more affordable housing.

"In past decades, working people built our city, and for their hard work they were rewarded—not always with great wealth, but with a fundamental assurance … that hard work could pull them from modest means into a growing middle class," Mr. de Blasio, in Queens, said from the stage of LaGuardia Community College, a school named for the mayor most cited in the speech. "Today that assurance is missing… That sense of economic justice is gone. And that is what we aim to address."

His broadly sketched-out agenda—200,000 new or preserved units of affordable housing over 10 years, municipal IDs for undocumented workers, strengthened links between schools and growing industries in the private sector—eschewed many of the dirty details that will be necessary to see it become a reality.

For example, the last quarter of the mayor's speech was devoted almost entirely to his much-ballyhooed plan to increase taxes on the rich to pay for universal prekindergarten, while avoiding any mention of Gov. Andrew Cuomo's own plan to pay for expanded early-education programs without a tax hike.

He said he would issue an executive order to expand the city's living-wage law to force more developers at city-subsidized projects to pay at least $11 an hour to their employees, which he said would cover "tens of thousands of additional New Yorkers." He did not, though, specifically embrace a bill introduced last week by the City Council to accomplish this.

He acknowledged that his progressive vision comes as the city is facing an uncertain financial situation thanks to open labor contracts and a bevy of unions seeking billions of dollars in back pay.

"We are in the midst of a budgetary challenge that is unprecedented," he said. "We are faced with a federal government in gridlock that's never been more severe. The state budget contains many unanswered questions. And we have over 150 municipal labor contracts that are unsettled," he said. When you take all of these factors into account, we are facing an uncharted path."

After the speech, Comptroller Scott Stringer said those open labor contracts could negatively impact the city's credit rating.

"That jeopardizes our double-A bond rating," he said, "and creates real challenges in our economy."

To hit his target of 200,000 units of affordable housing, Mr. de Blasio said he would work the real estate industry. "We must build more to achieve our vision," he said. "But the people's interests will be accounted for in every real estate deal made with the city."

But again, he side-stepped articulating a specific plan, instead directing his new housing and planning team, whose appointments he announced over the weekend, to produce a report by May 1 to outline that goal.

There were various other proposals directly related to his ambition to expand and invigorate the city's private sector. He offered a series of proposals geared toward CUNY that would "connect higher education to the jobs that the 21st-century workforce requires" and ensure that in eight years, the majority of open jobs in the city's emerging technology industry would be filled by city residents.

He also said he would create charity funds geared toward the fashion and manufacturing industries to "leverage private capital to ensure small business growth and fashion manufacturing across all five boroughs."

And he said he would pursue a "five-borough economic agenda" that integrates new industries with the traditional drivers of job growth in our city, but failed to mention which industries that would be geared toward.

He took a direct shot at the policies of previous administrations of handing out tax breaks to corporations to encourage them to do business in New York.

"We will forgo big giveaways to a select few companies and instead pursue a city economic strategy that grows whole sectors of small businesses in emerging industries—from technology, to green jobs, to food exports, to advanced manufacturing—companies that can generate good jobs at decent wages in all five boroughs," he said.

And he singled out ex-Mayor Michael Bloomberg's prior speeches for calling out the city's public employee unions as obstructionists.

"I know that these speeches have at times been used to attack the motives of our public employees," he said. "Today, I want to recognize the hard work and commitment of those men and women—and to say how proud I am of them."

Much of Mr. de Blasio's plan will need approval from the City Council, where his ally, Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito, holds sway.

"Not yet," she said, when asked by reporters if the mayor had presented his plan to the council to expand the living-wage law. "There's a lot of work to do, but definitely we would be willing to engage in that conversation."

Kathryn Wylde, president and CEO of the Partnership for New York City, said she hopes the de Blasio administration will keep the business community abreast of its plans to remake the city's economy, but said there was nothing in the speech that caught her off guard.

"I don't think there were any surprises," Ms. Wylde said. "But I think he did touch a couple of notes where I think he was being conciliatory, working with real estate being one, [and] working employers in the tech sector and the fashion industry."

The omission of significant environmental initiatives in the mayor's speech didn't sit well with one green group.

"We share Mayor de Blasio’s vision for New York that shared prosperity, shared success and shared responsibility are vitally important,” New York League of Conservation Voters President Marcia Bystryn said in a statement. “We urge the mayor to accelerate the creation and implementation of a sustainability agenda that will create jobs, save taxpayer dollars and make our people, communities and economy more resilient."

De Blasio is the typical liberal who thinks all minorities and the poor are the victims of a vast conspiracy to keep them down. Leftist ideologues like him only know how to do one thing, spend money.  The problem is we've tried all of this before and it's failed miserably.

LOL!  Typical libtard with the "do as I say, not as I do" mentality. This is one reason why liberalism ALWAYS fails.


Libtards never keep their promises:
De Blasio’s wild ride came after his pledge to personally abide by his “Vision Zero” proposals, which aim to entirely eliminate traffic deaths in the city by 2024 with measures that include a 25 mph speed limit.

“We’ve put a very bold plan before you, and we want the public to know we’re holding ourselves to this standard — and we intend to achieve these goals,” he said at a Tuesday press conference.

What is laughable is the explanation that they gave. Oh, "they are trained", "they use tactics".

So what?

They are still supposed to follow all traffic laws.

I once took a defensive driver training course.

Since I am trained, I am now allowed to drive through stop signs and drive 15 miles over the speed limit.

Got it.

Despite repeatedly promising this morning that he’d take questions about the controversy surrounding his caravan breaking multiple traffic laws, Mayor Bill de Blasio shut down questions on the topic at an unrelated press conference this evening.

Before walking away as reporters shouted questions at him, Mr. de Blasio read a brief statement referring to NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton’s earlier comments defending the conduct of the mayor’s security detail.

De Blasio jaywalks as he preaches road safety

He talks the talk — but won’t walk the walk.

Mayor de Blasio, who has been lecturing about pedestrian safety since he stepped foot in City Hall, strolled across a Brooklyn street against the light Friday in a blatant jaywalking violation.

Hizzoner was gabbing on his old-school flip-phone as he slowly made his way across 11th Street on Sixth Avenue in Park Slope — and his NYPD detail faithfully jaywalked with him.

A Post reporter caught the foot faux pas on video a day after de Blasio’s SUV was filmed blowing through two stop signs in Queens and twice going 15 mph over the speed limit.
