While we briefly touched on a number of issues, we specifically focused on the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas and how it will have a positive impact on public safety in our country; how we can bring manufacturing jobs back to New York, particularly in the Bronx; and how we can continue to make federal investments in New York City, especially when it comes to infrastructure.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cTo be clear, we did not discuss my legal case, and those who suggest the mayor of the largest city in the nation shouldn&#8217;t meet with the incoming president to discuss our city&#8217;s priorities because of inaccurate speculation or because we&#8217;re from different parties clearly care more about politics than people. Like I\u2019ve always done, I will take every opportunity possible to advocate for New Yorkers and our city, and after our discussion, I strongly believe there is much our city and the federal government can partner on to make New York City safer, stronger, and more affordable.
