New York City Will Hospitalize More Mentally Ill

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) “announced a major effort on Tuesday to remove people with severe, untreated mental illness from the city’s streets and subways, saying New York had ‘a moral obligation’ to address ‘a crisis we see all around us,'” the New York Times reports.

“The effort will involve hospitalizing people involuntarily, even if they do not pose an immediate risk of harm to others.”
