In an interview with @JDCocchiarella, Deputy Mayor for Economic Justice Julie Su confirms that the $131.5 million settlement with DoorDash is not a one-off.

NYC Deputy Mayor Julie Su: I think that’s part of the magic of Mayor Mamdani. What he believes deeply in is that government has an active role to play in shaping the economy, in shaping the city, and in making sure that working people have what they deserve. This is not a question of, you know, let’s get out of the way and let the market play itself out. This is a matter of in what ways has the market failed working people, and what is government’s responsibility to address it.

Last night I planted an olive tree at Gracie Mansion with Palestinian families from Gaza. 

May peace be our future.

Notable: Mayor Mamdani’s press team called on CNN, MS NOW, and Politico during today’s press conference with Trump, days after Trump banned all three outlets from the White House.

MAMDANI BRINGS MAYORS OF PARIS, AMSTERDAM AND GREATER MANCHESTER TO BROWNSVILLE AS NEW YORKERS MOVE INTO NEW AFFORDABLE HOMES.

Ahead of the Urban 20 summit, the four mayors visited Glenmore Manor and helped residents move in, using the moment to spotlight a housing crisis facing major cities around the world.

Mamdani pointed to New York City’s $22 billion housing investment, aimed at creating and preserving 400,000 affordable homes over the next decade.

ICYMI: Earlier this week, @NYCMayor announced a major lawsuit alongside a coalition of cities and counties to challenge Trump's cruel public charge rule which goes into effect today.

MAMDANI TO IMMIGRANT NEW YORKERS: Do not leave SNAP, Medicaid, WIC or TANF without first speaking to a trusted legal provider. Your eligibility for benefits has not changed.

For free, safe and confidential immigration legal help, call 1-800-354-0365 or call 311 and say “Immigration Legal.”

The real bat signal is for the City workers who have filled 200,000 (!!!!) potholes in less than 9 months.

[Isaiah Martin @isaiahrmartin]

I love that he’s working on actual government efficiency instead of that DOGE failure. This effort should be made apart of the national platform.

[Dhruv Shah @DhruvNJ]

Lynae Vanee to @NYCMayor: What’s it like to do your fucking job?

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

25 years ago, terrorists killed nearly 3,000 people, including 2,753 New Yorkers.

As we remember that terrible day, let us also remember the first responders, office workers and strangers who ran toward danger to help each other. Let us remember the extraordinary compassion, resilience and bravery that carried our city through its darkest
day.

Today, New York remembers. We will Never Forget.

Really disgusting people. Really disgusting network.
