This is outrageous. These are just NIMBY talking points. John Mangin is a brilliant pick by a Mayor who clearly is trying to actually address the housing affordability crisis and following what NYC voters voted for.
New: Mamdani’s pick for a key housing post faces a rocky road to City Council confirmation. Council members, including some progressives, are uneasy about how the process has played out and concerned about the pick's views on development & homeownership. politico.com/newsletters/new…

I’m a NYC renter, so the housing crisis is personal for me. Honored to have the endorsement of housing champions @OpenNYForAll.
YIMBY group @OpenNYForAll announced legislative endorsements including Ryder Kessler and Eli Northrup in Assembly primaries, Even Menist and Chloe Pierce, who are hoping to unseat Republicans, and 16 incumbent Democrats.

Some ~personal~ news: I’m thrilled to join @NYCHousing as press secretary! New York is facing a historic housing crisis, but there’s an incredible team working every day to tackle it. Excited to tell their story!

political staff are real human beings, often young, overworked and underpaid with no HR recourse or union. it’s time that good staff treatment be considered a qualification for public office.
Porter and Swalwell are both down because of dealing with their staff Congratulations mr woke billionaire Tom Steyer

Government must deliver for working people—and every dollar in our budget should work as hard as they do. That’s why I directed every agency to cut waste and help close our budget gap. Here’s some of what we found.

“Only 2 percent to 7 percent of officeholders at various levels were renters, while almost half of the people in the cities surveyed were renters. That underrepresentation shapes policy at all levels” newrepublic.com/article/2076…

I’ve heard a lot of vote explanations, but Sen. Rachel May on the @NYSenDems budget resolution is a master class in a concise argument with a measured fervor. And with no notes!

If you know Yume, you know she will be a superb DCAS commissioner and will somehow find a way to keep writing excellent books during late night shifts.
Mamdani’s new DCAS commissioner Yume Kitasei is *also* the widely acclaimed author of “The Stardust Grail” and other novels and my wife is concerned.

new yorkers accepted "freeze the rent" without blinking an eye. imagine if the proposal was "freeze the women." not so funny now is it
New Yorkers accepted "freeze the rent" without blinking an eye. But imagine if you took all the city's meat and put it in a freezer. Would you want to eat it 20 years later? Or even 10? Would you want to own it? Freeze the rent = slowly decay housing

You probably don't know what SEQRA is - but you should know that it's slowing down the housing that we need. Deputy Mayor Leila Bozorg is here to explain why reforming it is key to cutting red tape and building more housing.

.@ZohranKMamdani calls for modernizing environmental review “to deliver an affordability agenda on the timetable needed.” “We cannot address our housing crisis without making it easier to build in NYC.”

AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance and I. I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street.”

The gestapo is lying to you. What they did was murder an innocent woman in Minneapolis. If they can do it there, they can do it here. ICE needs to stay out of New York City.
Today, ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act of domestic terrorism. An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots. He used his training and saved his own life and that of his fellow officers. The alleged perpetrator was hit and is deceased. The ICE officers who were hurt are expected to make full recoveries.   This is the direct consequence of constant attacks and demonization of our officers by sanctuary politicians who fuel and encourage rampant assaults on our law enforcement who are facing 1,300% increase in assaults against them and an 8,000% increase in death threats.  This is an evolving situation, and we will give the public more information as soon as it becomes available.

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets. Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party. This is non negotiable. You cannot support the existence of this fascist secret police.

Just an evil, empty man. When it benefited his career he went on MSNBC & NPR and told rich liberals his relatives were intractable, drug-addled hicks, when he saw the MAGA writing on the wall c 2021 he became a Thiel vessel. now he’s chief nazi propagandist writing in Yalie tones
Correct. You can accept that this woman's death is a tragedy while acknowledging it's a tragedy of her own making. Don't illegally interfere in federal law enforcement operations and try to run over our officers with your car. It's really that simple.

Not only is this true, but she's an excellent advocate for progressive housing policy writ large. Pro development, pro affordability, fits perfectly with Zohran's wider agenda there.
NY Post and real estate industry are attempting to smear Cea Weaver, an incredibly brilliant and effective tenant organizer. @ZohranKMamdani couldn’t have made a smarter pick to run his Office to Protect Tenants. Make no mistake: they want to destroy Cea to destroy tenant power.

The idea that Zohran would or should get rid of Cea Weaver is ludicrous. Mind you, they’re only doing this because she has been so effective as a housing organizer.
