Mr. Mayor @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani, thanks for spending time with me and FDR. My great-grandad Al of NYC, after whom I’m named, lost everything in the Great Depression. Your commitment to relief, recovery, and reform for NYers inspires. Our episode: https://t.co/cbdyzTETst

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani tells PBS's @heffnera that he’s looking for a federal partnership like FDR and LaGuardia’s.

Could that be AOC?

'The Open Mind's @heffnera on highlighting mayors for the show's 70th anniversary:

"That, to me, was a person that I think most voters and Americans still regard as accountable to the people. Mayors have to get the job done in ways that presidents and senators just don’t."
