Amid the commotion in City Hall, New York State Senator Jessica Ramos officially launched her 2025 New York City mayoral election campaign . Ramos sat down with PIX on Politics host Dan Mannarino to discuss why she is running and share her perspective on the investigations.

"I didn't know there would be so much news this week, but it is the perfect time to talk about the mismanagement at City Hall that we've seen. I'm very sad that Commissioner Caban had to do the responsible thing of resigning, given that he's under investigation, but he's not the only one under investigation. I think that an example is being made of him when, quite frankly, all of the others under investigation should be asked to resign as well," said Ramos.

Ramos also addressed whether Adams should also consider resigning.

"Right now, he's not at the center of the investigation that we know of. I have full confidence that the feds are doing their job; they always do. When the wrongdoing comes to light, there should be justice, and people should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law."
