CBS New York's Lisa Rozner and Ali Bauman spoke to New Yorkers about how these cuts could impact their quality of life.
Lisette Orsini knows everyone at the Astoria Houses. She's lived there for three decades, but since last year, her neighborhood has seen a rise in almost every major crime, and quality of life, she says, is suffering.
