Show Notes
Federal prosecutors in Manhattan issued grand jury subpoenas to the New York City Council for records on former Speaker Corey Johnson and his aide Jason Goldman, targeting documents related to lobbying rules training. The subpoena for Johnson was withdrawn, possibly by mistake, while Goldmans was complied with. Johnson, who served as speaker until 2021, started a lobbying firm, and Goldman, his former chief of staff, runs another firm. They share clients like real estate developers and DoorDash. The subpoenas come amid chaos at the Southern District U.S. attorneys office and ongoing scrutiny of the revolving door between city hall and lobbying.
