Former City Council Speaker Christine Quinn on Adams’ strategy to curb homelessness

As Mayor Eric Adams completes his first 100 days on the job, former City Council Speaker Christine Quinn joined Errol Louis on “Inside City Hall” Monday to weigh in on his controversial strategy to address the city’s homelessness crisis.
