Fulfilling a campaign promise, Mayor Eric Adams is deploying a revamped police unit that he says will help tackle gun violence in the city. But as NY1’s Zack Fink, Courtney Gross and Juan Manuel Benítez explain, the new unit is already causing controversy. Critics argue that the “Neighborhood Safety Teams,” as the NYPD is officially calling them, are too similar to the Street Crime Unit that was disbanded a couple of years ago, following complaints of abusive policing.

Plus, is former Gov. Andrew Cuomo plotting a political comeback? Zack, Juan and Courtney discuss his recent attempts to redeem his tarnished image.

And, in a bonus segment, Courtney takes a look at the battle to unionize an Amazon warehouse on Staten Island, as workers gear up for a vote next week. Click here to watch her full investigation: Dueling campaigns on Staten Island — a fight over unionizing Amazon.

We want to hear from you, especially what you think about the first few months of the Adams administration.
