Mr. Yeger introduced a bill on Thursday that would dismiss summonses for all Covid violations and refund those who have already paid a fine. This is his second attempt at such legislation.
The councilman is upset that Boro Park and other orthodox neighborhoods have been targeted unfairly by inspectors throughout the pandemic. He says that other communities have gotten away “scot-free.”
Mr. Yeger has been an outspoken critic of the extremely tough restrictions in New York City, and the targeting of Jewish neighborhoods by those enforcing the rules.

Four other council members have already cosponsored the bill. .
Mayor Eric Adams has continued many of DeBlasio’s tyrannical Covid policies, including the requirement to provide proof of vaccination, in order to enter many establishments. .
If you follow the laws , you won’t get fined
This is a great idea. Jewish communities were targeted in force while other areas open and running were ignored. The red zones were made up as discrimination. Cops descended on our zones while completely disregarding others. I had friends working in their stores alone who were ticketed, or with their spouse. Empty schools were ticketed. The mandates are illegal and therefore the tickets are illegal as well.
Kalman was always a fighter . Please run for governor in 2022
