Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani

New Year, New Mayor.

Happy Passover, New York. Here's to building a city where even the poorest among us know that their cup will be filled. Where all who are hungry can come and eat. Chag Sameach and a koshern un freilichen Pesach.

Mayor’s Municipal Madness Championship voting is open. Vote to pick which repair I’ll handle myself. nyc.gov/madness

I’ve long admired the steady, principled leadership of Secretary-General António Guterres. His commitment to human rights, the dignity of refugees, climate justice, and confronting global inequality reflects the kind of moral clarity our world urgently needs. It was an honor to meet him this week at the UN. NYC has always been a home to the world, shaped by the dreams and struggles of people from every corner of the globe. Our relationship with the United Nations is part of that story, and it’s one we must continue to deepen. Together, we can build a more just future for people around the world.

A 7-month-old baby was shot and killed today in Brooklyn — an unthinkable loss. I’m grateful for the hospital staff who did everything they could and the NYPD for their ongoing work to find those responsible for this heinous murder. We cannot accept this violence as normal. Too many families have suffered this pain.

Happy Passover, Chag Pesach Sameach, and a Zissen un Koshern Pesach!

Semifinal voting closes tonight at 10PM! nyc.gov/madness

Mayor Mamdani Holds Press Conference to Make a Child Care Announcement twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

New York City Council just released a budget proposal. Here's what New Yorkers should know:

Speaker Julie Menin’s preliminary budget proposal would result in slashing billions of dollars from agency budgets, which would force the City to cut services. Double counting previously identified savings, overestimating revenues, and exaggerating debt service savings does nothing to close a deficit. This $6 billion proposal asks Albany for just one action – class size mandate relief. It refuses to address the deeper structural imbalance between the City and the State, or to increase taxes on the wealthiest New Yorkers and most profitable corporations. It effectively ensures this structural deficit will continue indefinitely. Any proposal that claims we can close this gap without significant new revenue is unrealistic.

Universal childcare can't wait. We're launching 3,000+ new 2-K and 3-K seats, and we need to hear from you. Take the NYC Parent Survey and tell us what your family actually needs. The survey runs from today, March 31 to April 13 in English and Spanish. Make your voice heard at nyc.gov/parentsurvey

New York, we’ve got your back: we’re upgrading 6,700+ catch basins, storm drains, and slotted manhole covers so that when it rains, no one can catch you slipping.  This is a $108M investment in more reliable infrastructure, flood prevention, dry streets, and dry socks for New Yorkers.

These 4 things are being fixed soon… you’ll pick which repair I handle myself. nyc.gov/madness

Mayor Mamdani Holds Press Conference to Make an Infrastructure Improvement Announcement twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

A greener city has to be a fairer city. We’re bringing fast, affordable EV charging to working drivers and underserved communities—starting with a new hub in Flushing, Queens. Eight chargers. 80% charge in under 15 minutes. The first of 10 sites coming this year.

Today is Trans Day of Visibility. Trans, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming people have always been here — from the hijra of India to the Diné nádleehi to the leaders who built the modern LGBTQIA+ movement here in New York. Your existence is not up for debate. Your lives are not a political issue. We’re fighting for a city where every trans New Yorker can live openly, safely, and with joy.

More than 11,000 of you voted — and now we’re down to the quarterfinals of the Mayor's Municipal Madness! It’s time to vote again. Do you want to see me… • Fix a public water fountain in the Lower East Side OR repair playground fencing in Morris Park? • Clean up illegal dumping in Soundview OR install dog waste bag dispensers in Sunset Park? • Replace missing litter baskets in Bushwick OR replace boardwalk plans in South Beach? • Resurface a basketball court in Morrisania OR paint a handball wall in East Harlem? Vote now at nyc.gov/madness - round 2 voting closes tonight at 10PM! And remember - every item is already scheduled to be repaired...but only one will be taken care of by yours truly.

The people who keep NYC running shouldn't have to choose between work they believe in & the city they call home.
  We’re taking a big step toward making that promise real with our first free child care program for municipal workers, serving children from 6 weeks to 3 years old. prospect.org/2026/03/30/mam…

The courage, commitment, and sacrifice of NYPD officers keep New York City safe every day.   Congratulations to the 137 uniformed officers and 63 civilian members of the @NYPDnews on the hard-earned promotions they received today. Thank you for your service.
