"We are going to loudly show our support and say to those who are living in Florida, 'Listen, we want you here in New York,"' said NYC Mayor Eric Adams.
The ad blitz, which is set to air in five local TV markets in the Sunshine State through the end of May, will feature digital billboards inviting Floridians to move to New York “where you can say whatever you want” a shot at the so-called “Don’t Say Gay” bill signed into law by Gov. Ron DeSantis last week.
Mayor Adams said Rev. Kathlyn Barrett-Layne’s anti-gay screeds did not surface during his administration’s internal vetting process before she was appointed earlier this week as a member of his Panel for Educational Policy.
