Mayor de Blasio heading to Albany Wednesday to push his agenda

KEN LOVETT

With time running out on the state legislative session, Mayor de Blasio will head to Albany Wednesday to make a late push for his agenda.

De Blasio’s top priorities include strengthening of the rent regulation law, extending the expiring law governing mayoral control over city schools, and reforming a controversial 421a tax credit program for developers who provide some affordable housing in new buildings.
