Mayor Eric Adams is set to receive his first round of major labor endorsements on Thursday from a cadre of law enforcement unions as he seeks reelection as an independent candidate, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to amNewYork.
The source said the “many uniformed” police and corrections officers unions — including the Detectives’ Endowment Association, the Correction Officers’ Benevolent Association, and the Correction Captains’ Association—will back the mayor at a Thursday news conference that will likely take place at City Hall. However, the city’s largest police union, the Police Benevolent Association, will not be at the event, the source said.
