Mamdani rescinds Eric Adams’ executive orders signed over last 16 months

Mayor Zohran Mamdani has moved swiftly to reshape City Hall, issuing an executive order that revokes all directives signed by former Mayor Eric Adams after September 26, 2024 — the date of Adams’s indictment.

Mamdani framed the move as a defense of working-class New Yorkers, though he did not provide specific examples of policies affected.
