In New York City, where mayors like Rudy Giuliani and Mike Bloomberg enjoyed outsize power over city business, Bill de Blasio is ceding his power to the City Council
In general, big legislation is rarely accomplished without heavy lifting from city agencies. The mayor’s office has also successfully negotiated behind the scenes to change certain bills that officials did not like, rather than publicly threaten the veto.
Since then, the administration’s aversion to confronting the Council has continued into its second term, even as Johnson vowed to be a stronger check on the executive branch. After winning the body’s leadership post, he negotiated a more than 25 percent increase to the Council budget in 2018. Part of the cash went toward boosting the headcount of the bill-drafting unit, making it easier than ever to turn an idea into reality.
