A packed October stated meeting where housing and integrity shared the floor. Speaker Adams referred a wave of land-use items to committee , the Speaker's own South Jamaica Gateway rezoning, the 135th Street MIH project, and the 343 West 47th Street demolition permit. The marquee floor fight was procurement reform: Julie Won's Intros 801-803, framed against $13M in corrupt contracting and the Phil Banks scandal, passed to protect whistleblowers. Members also advanced maternal-health bills, bird-friendly building rules, and a resolution honoring 11 men lynched in 1891 New Orleans.
