The leader of a prominent police union in New York City implored Gov. Kathy Hochul to stop "dancing" around the subject of the state’s bail reform law and take the side of law and order.

Adams, who’s already seen six officers shot, two of them fatally, as well as two major fires in New York City barely a month since he took office, called on Hochul last week to make changes to bail reform. But at a separate press conference, the governor stood by the "fundamental premise" of the controversial legislation that took effect in January 2020 under her predecessor, Andrew Cuomo.
