What they posted

Earlier this year, the City Council, led by @KeithPowersNYC and @ebottcher, passed a legislative package that provides a strong foundation to get scaffolding down and improve safety and design. But Mayor Adams has barely put it to use. https://t.co/4cGZMR8eLV

Why it's Truth

Official NYC Mayor's Office and City Council announcements confirm the Council passed the legislative package in March 2025 (sponsored by Powers and Bottcher) and Mayor Adams signed it in April 2025. Subsequent reporting and city updates document implementation of the reforms.
