Screenshot of a press release with the headline: “Mayor Mamdani Announces Formation of ‘Rental Ripoff’ Hearings.” Subhead reads: “‘Rental Ripoff’ hearings in all five boroughs will offer New Yorkers a microphone to share poor conditions, unconscionable business practices that City will act on.” Body text reads: “NEW YORK, NY — New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani today signed an executive order directing the Department of Housing Preservation & Development, the Department of Buildings, the Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants, and the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, in coordination with the new Office of Mass Engagement, to hold ‘Rental Ripoff’ hearings across the five boroughs within the first 100 days of the administration. At these hearings, working New Yorkers will be able to speak about the challenges they face — from poor building conditions to hidden fees on rent payments. Following these hearings, the Mamdani administration will publish a summary and report detailing common themes and areas of opportunity, and the testimony shared at these hearings will directly inform policy interventions to take on these ripoff tactics. Details about the hearings will be available at nyc.gov/RentalRipoff.”

This should exist in every city in the country.
