It is a valedictory stated meeting for the term-limited 2021 Council. Speaker Corey Johnson shepherds a sweeping package: a citywide climate-resiliency plan, Elevate Transit zoning for subway accessibility, shelter-security prevailing-wage rules, and Ben Kallos's marquee Office of Urban Agriculture bill (Int 1663/1058) celebrating student-built hydroponic farms. The room turns personal and political: Inez Barron demands the Thomas Jefferson statue be removed from the chambers ('Jefferson calls Negroes inferior'), Farah Louis frames the treatment of Haitian migrants as 'a black people problem,'
