New: City Council Speaker Julie Menin was conspicuously absent from Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s announcement today that his admin would release a trove of docs related to air quality after 9/11.

Her office insists she was not invited. City Hall says she was.

"It’s not just Mamdani’s platform – realistic or not – that’s won him such a devoted following. It’s how he’s approaching politics at a time when the Democratic Party is facing criticism for failing to meaningfully connect with voters." From @SahalieD https://t.co/OBCPXUmheE
