Adams, the ex-police officer who centered his campaign on the claim that he would uphold law and order while curbing police abuse, has been hailed as a voice of moderation and reason. He was the most prominent guest among other mayors as well as police chiefs at a July 12 meeting with President Biden in the White House to discuss gun violence. Current New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio was not invited.
