    How’s Mayor Adams Doing ? Don’t Ask, Many New Yorkers Say. (The New York Times)
    Jeffery C. Mays / Dec. 29, 2023
    Claim :

    Mayor Eric Adams' "efforts to stabilize public housing" has received "broad praise."


    Disposition : Misleading by Omission
    Findings :

    "More than 36,000 NYCHA apartments have either undergone conversion or are in the process of being converted to the RAD-PACT program, which officials say has helped drive billions in needed repairs. But tenants—some of whom will get a chance to vote this year on whether they want their developments to join the initiative—remain distrustful of the change."
