History just took a turn in New York City! Zohran Mamdani, the city’s first Muslim and South Asian mayor-elect, is ready to take on Donald Trump’s immigration agenda.
Calling his win “a victory for immigrants,” Mamdani promised to keep NYC “a city built and led by immigrants.” The Democratic Party and self-proclaimed democratic socialists plan bold reforms, including rent freezes, free public transportation, and universal childcare.
His campaign resonated with voters frustrated by rising living costs and anti-immigration policies. While critics question his inexperience, supporters see his victory as a turning point for progressive politics in the US.
