We want Zohran Mamdani to succeed based on merit and real results, not promotoinal messaging.
Zohran Mamdani’s housing claims don’t show anything new. Forcing landlords to fix violations is standard enforcement under existing housing codes in NYC, Baltimore, DC, etc. That’s baseline gov work, not innovation.
The numbers sound big, but there’s no context. Over what time period? Compared to what baseline? Without that, it reads more like a press releaase than a real policy win.
Also, this is coming from a PAC aligned acct, so of course it’s framed to look strong. That doesn’t make it false, but it does mean it’s selecctive.
Bottom line: this looks like routine code enforcement being repackaged as something special.
2nd bottom line: come on Zohran do something meaningful, we’re counting on you.
Can we just be happy the guy’s doing something? I’m so despondent from the mediocrity of the average politician, and seeing Zohran get shit done is a relief for me
I think you’re missing the point. He hasn’t been in office long, and he’s getting shit done that other mayors dragged their feet on. The first and last ones seem to be the only ones that weren’t worked on in other admins.
According to his website:
Intervened in the bankruptcy case involving a portfolio of buildings owned by Pinnacle Group, securing a $30 million investment and a commitment to complete repairs within six months.
Reached a $2.1 million settlement with A&E Real Estate to correct more than 4,000 violations across 14 buildings.
Won a historic $2.1 court judgment against landlord Seth Miller under the city’s Nuisance Abatement Law, with additional $1,000 daily penalties for ongoing violations.
Conducted on-the-ground outreach to tenants in rent-stabilized apartment buildings in East Harlem to support organizing efforts and ensure tenants understand their rights.

He’s not the one bragging about this, the Democrats are
Edit: the same Democrats that tried everything to not let him win

I respectfully dissent, thats more press release repackaging.
It definitely is PR, but I think you should focus that anger elsewhere for about a year. Let’s regroup after that.
