The PBA filed our lawsuit in Staten Island state Supreme Court seeking to overturn the vaccine mandate announced last week. See press release.
The PBA president is quoted in the NY Post: “This absurd decision should outrage every New Yorker who wants to get illegal guns off our streets. There is no dispute that this individual was caught carrying an illegal gun for the second time. If perps like this face absolutely no consequences, even after shooting a cop, we have to ask: why bother sending us out to get the guns at all?”
The PBA president is quoted in the Daily News, Newsday, amNY, CBS 2 News, Fox 5 News, PIX 11 News, NBC 4 News, New York 1, WABC Radio, WINS Radio, WOR Radio, and WWRL: “We are reviewing our legal options. However, our city leaders need to realize that this ruling deals a direct blow to our fight against the violence that is tearing our city apart.” Lynch called the city law “ill-conceived” and said it “makes it virtually impossible for police officers to safely and legally take violent criminals into custody — the very job that New Yorkers are urgently asking us to do.”
