I've spent a lot of time with this mayor, and Mayor De Blasio is totally supportive of his personnel, this department. I've received hundreds of millions of additional dollars, outside the budget this year, a lot of it focused on officer safety enhancements. Additional training, additional equipment, and additional technology. By the end of 2015 we will be the most advanced police department in America in terms of technology, technology which we, extraordinarily beneficial to the safety of our officers. $ 35 million being focused on training enhancements, tactical skills enhancements. You know, this is a mayor that cares very deeply about New York City police officers.

Cares very deeply, deeply about the divide in the city at this time, and is working very hard to heal that divide.
