Ask the Mayor: ICE Agents Posing as NYPD; Bus Lanes; Parking; More - a podcast by WNYC

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio takes calls from listeners and discusses this week in NYC, including the shut-down zones, parking, bus lanes, and more.

On @WNYC's @BrianLehrer just now: @NYCMayor about reports that @ICE impersonates NYPD: "ICE is not only lying, using what I think is an illegal approach to try to gain entry" to apartments. Also says ICE is trying to "poison" the relationship between NYPD and immigrants.

"It's a bright red line. We do not participate with ICE on investigations," @NYCMayor stresses.

Asked by a @BrianLehrer caller about the delays with his Better Buses plan, de Blasio says he’s not up to date on its progress & mistakenly says it’s been mostly on target.Background: https://t.co/5c2hvi6lc4

What's your plan to lure people back to the city? @BrianLehrer caller named Irene asks @NYCMayor. Hizzoner touts a newish line-- 'We're going to be the next life sciences/biotech capitol.' Says he's optimistic people will come back not this year but next year.
