"NYC Council Faces Pressure Over Veto of 'How Many Stops' Act"

Three mothers who lost their children to gun violence in NYC are urging the City Council not to override Mayor Adams' veto of a controversial cop-stops bill, arguing that it would hinder police investigations into their children's deaths. The bill, known as the "How Many Stops Act," would require cops to record demographic information about nearly everyone they speak to, potentially slowing down urgent investigations. Mayor Adams has vehemently opposed the bill, citing concerns about excessive paperwork for officers, but the council is likely to vote to override his veto. The battle over the bill has become a contentious issue between City Hall and the Democrat-led council, with both sides standing firm in their positions.
