NEW YORK — Mayor Eric Adams is meeting with several other mayors from around the country Wednesday at Gracie Mansion to discuss how to better tackle gun violence and to “send a strong message on the national level and the state level.”
Before the confab at the mayor’s official residence, Adams and three other mayors — St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones, Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown and Little Rock, Ark. Mayor Frank Scott Jr. — spoke on Good Morning America to lay out some of their goals.
“We’re dealing with the same problem, a $9 billion industry that’s profits are turning profit into pain in our communities,” Adams said. “We want to mobilize, strategize, learn from each other and see best practices.”
