Klein took questions from two members of the city council who were present; Liz Crowley (D-Middle Village) and Danny Dromm (D-Jackson Heights).
A former teacher, Dromm said he was worried about the status of education funding and the chances that 8,500 teaching jobs that could be lost if the city loses more education funding from the state.
“We are working at the bare minimum at our schools,” Dromm said.
