After Bronx Fire Schumer Lobbies HUD For 90 of 120 Families Amid BP Links, SDNY & UN Qs

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

BRONX / SDNY COURT, Jan 10 – In the aftermath of the deadly Bronx fire, U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer on January 11 scheduled a Zoom appearance for media.

  Inner City Press RSVP-ed and called in from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.  

Sen. Schumer has written to HUD Secretary Marcia Fudge, noting that he helped rapidly confirm her and that

"Twin Parks North West, Where Bronx Fire Occurred, Has 120 Housing Units; 90 Have Federal Housing Vouchers Attached To Their Rents     Senator Says ALL 90 Are Eligible To Move To ANY Eligible Building That Accepts Housing Vouchers As Payment." 

  Good. But what about the other thirty families, without Federal housing vouchers? The Office of Bronx Borough President Vanessa L. Gibson has sent the Press these links, here and here.

  In other DC confirmation news, while it is unclear when Senator Schumer's nominee for the Second Circuit Court of Appeals Alison J. Nathan will be considered by the full Senate, issues of public access to proceedings and filings in the recent US v. Ghislaine Maxwell trial, now called into question by lack of transparency in jury selection, will be the subject of another story.

  As well the New York Senate delegation's approach to the United Nations including its ongoing ban on NY-based Inner City Press. Watch this site.
