About this episode
New York City officials will limit the number of homeless families relocated to Newark each year through a controversial rental voucher program after the two cities reached a settlement in federal court. Meanwhile, Councilmember Lincoln Restler says his office is facing threats after he introduced a climate-friendly bill targeting idling ice cream trucks. Also, Councilmember Vickie Paladino of Queens, known for confronting tenants who she claims are rule breaking, faces scrutiny. But, a WNYC investigation reveals that she's dealing with her own housing and renter challenges based on multiple 311 complaints claiming her home is being used as an illegal hotel.
