Op-Ed | Chancellor Kamar Samuels stood up for migrant children. Now he should stand up for procurement reform.

Chancellor Kamar Samuels has made a name for himself by advocating for the rights of migrant children, especially after standing up against then-Mayor Eric Adams' harsh comments about the migrant surge. Now, there's a call for him to extend his advocacy to procurement reform, which could bring more transparency and fairness to the city's spending practices. This push highlights a broader issue of equity and accountability within city governance, and it's crucial as mismanaged funds can directly impact educational and social services. Samuels' leadership in these areas could set a powerful precedent for systemic change in New York City.
