About this episode

New Jersey is likely to send its first Latina to Congress in November after Democrats selected State Senator Nellie Pou to replace the late Bill Pascrell on the ballot. WNYC's Nancy Solomon reports. Meanwhile, New York City workers have removed a plywood passageway that covered a sidewalk in Kips Bay that spanned three mayoral administrations. But as WNYC's David Brand notes, it's just a small step in addressing the city's vast network of sidewalk sheds. Plus, New Jersey is making changes to how police respond to mental health crises and how rape kits are handled. WNYC’s Sean Carlson speaks with New Jersey Attorney General Matt Platkin, whose office is overseeing both initiatives. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
