West Bronx News: Quick Links

Mayor Bloomberg was in the northwest Bronx yesterday to promote a new electronic health records initiative that he says will improve preventive care throughout New York City.

Bob Kapstatter, the Daily News' Bronx borough chief, takes NY Secretary of State Lorraine Cortes-Vazquez's husband, Louis Vazquez, to task for his hot wheels (a 2003 James Bond two-door convertible T-bird), which he registered through his company, Rain, Inc. Kapstatter points out that, through a fat city contract, Vazquez's nonprofit runs the Meals-on-Wheels program using non-union workers. Vazquez's nonprofit must register with his wife, the NY Secretary of State.
