“They delivered for New York, and now we’re delivering for them.” That’s what Mayor Eric Adams said Thursday in announcing a slate of new protections for essential delivery workers across the Five Boroughs.
The mayor made his remarks while joining delivery workers rallying in City Hall Park on April 21. The all-day affair drew legions of supporters and politicians from all around the five boroughs in order to support delivery workers who have been fighting for greater rights after struggling with hardships amidst the pandemic.
