FILE - In this Feb. 25, 2014, file photo, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio reads to children in a pre-kindergarten class at P.S. 130 in New York. De Blasio’s first 100 days as mayor of New York were marked in nearly equal measures by accomplishing campaign goals and committing political blunders. Most of his time and energy was devoted to a single issue, his central campaign promise to create universal pre-kindergarten and fund it with a tax on wealthy New Yorkers. That bruising fight resulted in a partial victory and defined de Blasio’s first months in office. (AP Photo/Seth Wenig, File)
