We asked New Yorkers, why do we need to elect a mayor who will fight for immigrants? The response was clear: in a city of immigrants, we must protect all our neighbors 🫶🌎That's why every eligible voter needs to get to the polls and vote for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social 💞

"We can both protect street vendors, ensure quality of life, and leave no stone unturned in delivering for the people of this city—as opposed to working with a president who is looking to declare war on those same people." - @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

"The reason we put forward a $30 minimum wage by 2030 is because that's the minimum to afford to live in this city. It would be phased in over a longer period of time for small business owners. The absence of it is pushing people out." - @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

New York is Not for Sale with Zohran Mamdani, Bernie Sanders, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez · Luma Time and again, we’re witnessing how politicians of the past sell out New Yorkers for their own personal gain and invite billionaires to erode the very fabric…

Zohran says his favorite live music venue in the city is Forest Hills -- where he's hosting a rally on Sunday with @sanders.senate.gov and @aoc.bsky.social !

"We've seen Mayors use their powers on the Rent Guidelines Board to hike rent. I believe tenants across our city deserve relief, and it's possible to keep NYers in this city and help landlords with rising costs and a broken property tax system." - @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

From the State Capitol to the streets of NYC, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social has demonstrated he will fight for immigrant NYers–and he’ll deliver that same leadership as Mayor. He will stop collusion with ICE, protect sensitive personal data, and increase funding for immigration legal services.
