I'm torn about this one... On one hand, I get why Zohran Mamdani wants to shake things up - the current system sounds pretty outdated, especially considering how much progress PATH has made already. Removing NYPD officers from the mix might actually help outreach workers do their jobs more effectively and build trust with people in need. 
On the other hand, I'm also worried about public safety. If transit ambassadors can't handle emergency situations or prevent violent incidents, it's a recipe for disaster.
And what about all the people who don't respond well to street outreach - like those who are desperate, unstable, or even hostile? We need a balance between community support and crisis response.I guess we'll just have to wait and see how this plays out
. Mamdani's campaign is gaining momentum, but he needs to be prepared for the potential fallout from his plan...
I think this is such an interesting topic 
The idea of transit ambassadors sounds really cool too 
, but I can see why the critics are worried 
. We gotta make sure that anyone who's vulnerable is getting the care they need 
. And I love that we're seeing some international attention on this issue 
! Maybe we can learn from each other and come up with even better solutions?
