Chair Williams introduces Knicks Day and Knicks championship resolutions
Chair Williams introduces two pre-considered resolutions: one declaring June 13 as New York Knicks Day, and another celebrating 'Knicks in five' as the Knicks win the 2026 NBA Championship, both sponsored by multiple council members.
A pre-considered resolution sponsored by Councilmember Maloney, Kevin Riley,
Amanda Farías, Chris Marte, Farah Lewis, and the Speaker, which would declare June 13th as New York Knicks Day in the City of New York to celebrate the contributions of the world-class
basketball team to the city's culture and civic identity.
And a pre-considered resolution sponsored by the speaker and council members, Maloney, Farias, Marte, Riley, and Lewis, which would celebrate the Nixon Five as the New York Knicks win the 2026 NBA championship.
Let's hear from some of the sponsors to give some remarks.
And first up, we have Councilmember Marte.
