1/ Good morning to the tenacious members of @NYTWA, to an inspiring union leader @bhairavi_desai, and the most principled elected @ZohranKMamdani. We won a city backed guarantee and restructured debt. And we won new beginnings for thousands of taxi drivers - right before Diwali.

11,200+ people funded this campaign — no corporate cash, no AIPAC, no real estate, no AI or crypto. I'm humbled and energized by all of you. Together we'll prevail on June 23rd and build the movement to take on the oligarchs and deliver the dignity working people deserve.

‘Please stand away from the platform edge.’ A voice every New Yorker knows and today, we’re proud to celebrate Bernie Wagenblast on Trans Day of Visibility. Visibility matters in our transit system and across our city

Some news: @ZohranKMamdani is opening an on-site child care facility inside the Dinkins Municipal Building that will be free to city workers. It's a model for a universal child care program that's on track to hit full capacity by the end of his first term. prospect.org/2026/03/30/mam…

Eid Mubarak, New York.

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

For Mahmoud Khalil, this past year has been marked by profound hardship—and by profound courage. A year ago, Mahmoud was walking home through our city after sharing an iftar with his wife Noor when he was detained by federal agents, flown to Louisiana, and then held in an ICE facility for months. In that time, he was forced to miss the birth of his first child. All of this for exercising his First Amendment rights in protesting the ongoing genocide in Palestine. And yet, even in the face of that cruelty, there has also been beauty. New Yorkers raising their voices in solidarity. A city refusing to look away. Mahmoud won his freedom, and a father was finally reunited with his child. Last night, as we marked the one year anniversary of his detention, Rama and I were honored to welcome Mahmoud, Noor, and their son Deen to Gracie Mansion to break our fast together. Mahmoud is a New Yorker, and he belongs in New York City.

@jaslinforqueens Can you share your must try indian food recommendations in nyc too?

if you haven’t had langar at sikh cultural society or dosa at the temple canteen, i don’t want your food recommendations

I have seen this picture cross my feed many times, and every single time it pulls me up short. His little blue lunchbox, the sneakers that are probably a tad too big because he would grow into them, the straps for his glasses so that he didn’t lose them, his checkered shirt that his little hands might have stumbled over in trying to make sure he got every button right, or perhaps his mother bent down to help him with; his mother who he waves goodbye to, who he loved and who loved him so deeply.

@nicetrygrover yes! just be prepared to take your shoes off and cover your head — head coverings are available also at the gurdwara!

@jaslinforqueens is the sikh cultural society open to everyone?

It’s a good day to revisit the message James Talarico shared right away in his campaign announcement:

Reporter: What do you think of Sid Rosenberg using the term cockroach? Mamdani: So Muslims in this city, for almost as long as we have been in this city, have had to deal with those with power and platform dehumanizing us — to be called animals, insects, to be called a jihadist mayor…. This language is both painfully familiar to me as a Muslim New Yorker, but also as someone who was born in East Africa, and it is difficult to hear. There’s also a reminder that the silence that often greets this kind of bigotry, this kind of Islamophobia, is what allows it to fester — the temptation to treat it as politics as usual. And I want to be very clear that I have far more urgent work in front of me than indulging the provocations of a man who trades in outrage and, frankly, fears the city that we are looking to build — one where every single New Yorker who lives here can call it their home. I am not ashamed of who I am. I am not ashamed of my faith. I am not ashamed of being the first Muslim mayor in the history of our city. And there’s no amount of racism that will change the way in which I lead or the commitment that I hold to each and every New Yorker in this city.

you heard the man

New York City: The time has arrived. Finally, a chance to tell the city EXACTLY what your landlord’s been getting away with. NYC’s first Rental Ripoff Hearings are happening in all five boroughs, and we want to hear from you. Real New Yorkers. Real stories. Real policy changes.
