Mayor Eric Adams called Thursday for a broader crackdown on hate speech spread across social media channels, both from the federal government and the companies who run the platforms, and for the elimination of plea bargains for those charged with hate crimes.

Hizzoner made the remarks on Dec. 1 to reporters on a conference call following a Mayors Summit Against Anti-Semitism he attended in Athens, Greece – the first stop on a four-day trip away from the five boroughs this week. The event was attended by 53 mayors from across 23 different countries, Adams said.
