New York City will spend $650 million over the next five years to combat homelessness and mental illness, while increasing the number of police officers in the subway system.

Mayor Eric Adams on Thursday laid out an ambitious agenda for 2025 while fighting for his political life. His State of the City address was the last of his first term in office as he faces a tough reelection battle.

The mayor pledged $650 million to reduce street homelessness in his State of the City address on Thursday, as the number of people living on the subways and in the streets has climbed in recent years.
