Apparently Jay tried to use meeting Beyoncé to sway one of the voters...
From Variety
Early on, the Times Square group approached State Senator Liz Krueger. She may have been a die-hard gambling opponent—“I voted against bingo in church basements,” she once told me—but she controlled one of the six votes on the Times Square CAC. In a Zoom meeting, she said, the casino team asked her if she wanted to meet Jay-Z. “Why? I don’t like his music particularly,” she recalled saying. “They’re like, ‘You don’t want to meet Jay-Z? Well, you know who he’s married to?’”
She didn’t meet Beyonce, nor did she get together with Mr. Carter—not even when Jay-Z went up to the State Capitol in Albany this May.Go here to read the full piece.

Uhhh. It’s his wife. They a team. Duh.
Sounds like she wasn’t impressed to meet Beyonce. She had no interest in his rap music nor his wife.
Have a seat, Jay. Times are changin’ and you ain’t immune to it.
These 2 just can't accept that they ain't what they were five/10 yrs ago.
Nobody love or even like them like that no more!
Yt ppl as well as some Black folks are waiting for the glorious day when their marriage goes the way that Bennifer had. & Whatta glorious day that will be!
Should've used Solange and he might've gotten some traction.
Let me upgrade ya"
The Jay Z Business move no one ever talks about is him marrying Beyonce, Americas sweetheart, at the height of her career, AND, getting rid of Matty Knowles.
That was his most lucrative deal bar none. That one made him a house hold name. Put him in rooms he never would have had access to.That one, got him on the treasured Forbes List.
From that point on she was there in every room when he closed a deal.
She has been the key to unlock every door.
It appears something has dramatically
shifted in the air and Buzzbee was first indication.
STHU, JayZ had way more $$$$$$$$$ than Beyonce had during that time and actually OWNED his own record label/sneaker line/clothing wear, etc.
While Beyonce was living w/ her parents heavily relied on her parents to do stuff for her!
Jay WAS ALREADY Grown while Bey was just learning how to read!
They can't catch a break. Open it in the UK
^ No, no and no. They are closer in age than reported. And Bey was clearly the star while he was making bad deals n losing cash.
huh? We do not want it in the UK. Cheers
@12:34 I'm not talking about wealth, I'm talking about influence, recognition, mass appeal. Her Global appeal
Her Stardom.
@12:42 Exactamundo! Spot on !
@12:26 Nailed it! Clamping on to Bey was the smartest business decision Jay ever made. She would've been a success with or without him. I can't say the same for Jay Z.
What's the big deal about meeting Beyaki and what else would she have gotten out of that? So she should've been so excited by that she'd would vote to ruin a bunch a livelihoods, disrupt careers and transform a historical neighborhood to bring in addicts and crooks? They really believe she's the queen of everything. It's truly hysterical.
@12:42(2)-You don't know what you're talking about. You must be born after 1999. Check JZ's credentials & get schooled!
Nobody that lives in TS or Hell's Kitchen area wants that kind of congestion in their neighborhood. There are enough con-artist, hookers (men & women), homeless ppl and drug addicts in this area. It would bring more of the same. JUST NO
Well, perhaps she should meet Solange instead.
