This order is more specific. It will require explanatory signage in buildings including agency offices, public parks, Recreation Centers and training. Schools have a similar policy. I think its a little presumptuous to assume because would do something violent. I think its fine. Everyone has a right to use the bathroom wherever they want to go. Reporter mayor de blasio says therell be a minimal cost. You can see the informational signs in city buildings in the next three months and City Employees will have to be trained on the new policies within the next two years. Thats the latest on the east side. Back to you. Ernie thank for you that report. Joining me to talk about this, i the director of the lgbt and the transgender Legal Defense and education fund. Thank you for being here. Let me get your reaction. What do you think i appreciate being a new yorker every day. Today is a particularly proud day. New york is leading the nation in protecting transgender and gender nonconforming new yorkers and saying you can use the bathroom that you prefer, no questions asked, no documentation. Its a great thing. Congrats to the mayor and the commission on human rights. Ernie ethan, im sure you feel the same way. Sure. This is a very welcome executive order to us, especially in a climate where were seeing a wave of antitransgender legislation across the country to see new york city be a beacon of fairness and equality is wonderful. Ernie how much of a problem has it been for people to have i dont know if its easy for those of us whose gender matches how they feel can understand, but going to the bathroom is a basic human right. For many new yorkers and americans, its something that involves a lot of anxiety, to go to work, to go to school, to go in public and be worried about am i going to be able to go to the bathroom without being harass. Ernie no questions, no documentation. Can you see some problems that could arise as a result of this . So far across the country, we found there have been no cases of transgender individuals causing issues when theyre using the restroom consistent with their gender identity. There have been times where individuals have complained about transgender individuals using the restroom. However, those have all been resolved and there have been no issues related. Ernie this isnt just the restrooms. Were talking about pools and so forth and recreation areas. I want to say when we think about the real problem here, the problem has been those harassed in the bathrooms. In new york city, we have a high rate of murders ever transgender women of color. These kind of executive orders and protections the mayor announced are important. Ernie what do you expect nationwide . What reaction do you expect . Sure. As i said, there are a wave of antitransgender bills that are out now. But new york city does set standards for the country and showing the country that instead of taking the action, were taking the opposite action. Were standing for equality. Were against discrimination and were not going to let that happen in our city. It think it will make a huge impact. Just seeing how news media has picked this up is so important additionally, we have federal law that has addressed this issue. Ernie absolutely. Well continue to watch the story.

Our feature story focuses on new jersey and what some are calling an exodus from the garden state. Antwan lewis antwan lewis looks at why so many are leaving. This man moved out of new jersey. We were outside of philly. We moved back to pennsylvania over the summer. They have a twoyearold. Thinking about taxes and school and all of that. Between 2004 and 2014, more than 2 Million People left the garden state because of high taxes, an exodus costs the state 18 billion in gross income. 75,000 jobs. And more than 11 billion lost in economic activity. Not everyone agrees with those numbers. It is not accurate. It gives the wrong impression about whats actually going on. Thats unfortunate. Reporter he calls the findings flawed at best. They said we lost 18 billion in income over the same 10 years. First of all, over those two years, the people of new jersey earned 2. 5 trillion, with a tr, not with a b, 2. 5 trillion. The amount they were earning increased by over 100 billion during that time.

You still have the shovel the snow in pennsylvania. Its about tax avoidance. Go to states with more favorable tax benefits. Pennsylvania is one of them. Ernie similar problem connecticut is having. A lot of critics say the report is flawed, that a lot of people are doing well in new jersey and people are moving in. How do you respond . The 2 million who left during the decade, the Economic Impact was 18 billion, regardless of those who came in behind them. We have folks coming every day. We welcome everyone. The challenge is those who are leaving, the Economic Impact is negative for the state ernie how do we fix the problem . Legislature is taking some action. Last week the Legislature Passed two bills out of committee. One was relief on estate tax. We have the lowest threshold. And the other was relief on Retirement Income tax.

It was expected, but a lot of people thought it would happen right after the super bowl. Russ that would have been the hollywood script ending. He holds the trophy up and he announces it then and there. Ernie why did it take so long . Russ people were wondering is he playing games or not. Listen, 18 years, just as a pro. Hes probably played football since hes five years old. And hes done it his whole life. Youre not only doing something you love, but youre excelling at it. Ernie he didnt have any other options he was thinking about as far as continuing to play . Russ no. He wasnt going anyplace else. Where theres a lot of emotion that involves the most important thing, you want to make sure youre doing the right decision. He had a lot of great comments. Hear him now and you know hes doing the right thing by himself. Career, i know without a doubt i gave everything i had to help my teams walk away with a win. There were other players who were more talented, but there was no one who could outprepare me. Because of that, i have no regrets. Ernie very emotional. What memories he has playing football. Russ you know what . The key thing about that and a lot of the public doesnt understand and the media as well. A lot of people think its the big things. When i say the big things, going to the super bowl and the playoffs and all those are the important things. And they are important. But for him and a lot of guys yogi used to tell me its the little things, the camaraderie. Peyton is going to miss those things as well. Afterwards, ill miss recapping the game with my dad and checking to see if the giants won and calling elias i miss that handshake with tom brady.
