Wrote De Blasio<\/a>: \u201cThroughout history, New York City has often performed a vital role for this nation: When the country threatens to lurch in a more divisive direction, we\u2019ve always been a beacon moving towards a more hopeful future. That\u2019s why fighting for working people and ensuring that New York City remains the vanguard of progressivism will continue to be my missions. I\u2019m going to redouble my efforts to improve the quality of life of everyday New Yorkers, proving that policies like\u00a0guaranteed paid personal time off<\/a>\u00a0can work on a grand scale. I\u2019m going to continue implementing universal health care and a\u00a0Green New Deal\u00a0<\/a>in the nation\u2019s largest city. And I promise I\u2019ll fight for New Yorkers and workers everywhere to ensure there\u2019s an actual plan to protect their livelihoods from being automated out of existence. I\u2019ll also help ensure our party continues to be remade in the image of the activism I\u2019ve seen all across this nation. Democrats must return to our roots as a party focused on bold solutions that speak to the concerns of working people.\u201d<\/p>\n
